Alan has a very good point. I grew up around farming, and left at about 18 to work in a factory. I still work 31 years later in that factory, but moved back to the old farm about 5 yrs ago. A few months ago the corporation that now owns the factor announced it would close that operaration to move operations to (you guessed it) Mexico. While I have since gone to college (on their dime) and now work in IT making a very good living, it saddens me to watch my job and many others moving across borders. For the immediate future I still have a job there, however the mfg is closing down, and I pretty much support the Mexico operation. Long term though I am looking elsewhere for employment. Sure makes one reflect on his past and wonder about the future. Good luck to you.
