Let me tell you something about that. The worlds largest refrigerator factory used to be 10 miles from me. When that factory was running,it employed 2700 local people with union jobs,high pay and great benefits. When that factory closed,this community died,no pulse,it's dried up and blown away. We bought a new refrigerator a year and a half ago. I don't think it was any cheaper than it would have been if it had been made right here. I never saw any big sales ads claiming refrigerators were cheaper after they left the country. Even if they were $200 more on average,no more often that a person has to buy one and given all the pockets that those 2700 union paychecks went through every Friday,we would ALL still be better off paying the extra $200. The only thing that changed was Electrolux company profit,that's ALL. You multiply what happened here by all the high paying jobs that have gone away for the same reason,then tell me you wonder why the US economy is in the toilet and not coming back. Now tell me how much better off we all are because their STOCKHOLDERS made money.
