OK, what I find striking about the CEO's comments, is the unabashed openness about just going and setting up shop in a place like China or India. I mean, we hear our government talking about bringing jobs back. We had the CEO of G.E. on the Pres's "JobCounselPanel", to talk (Really just a big phony show) about bringing and getting americans back to work. But now, they are, the CEOs, just wide open and bragging about setting up business in, let's just say, the cheaper part of the world. THAT's what strikes me the most about the CEO's stand.
I get all the economical and business related reasons for it, I get all that. But for anybody here to seriously think that those business and jobs are going to come back, they are just whistling past the graveyard.
If you don't believe this country was sold out years ago, at "Meetings" like Breton woods, helped along with an alphabet soup of "Treatys", then I don't know what else to say. There was and is, a big push for this one world global economy. This has seriously hurt the U.S. You can't see that?
Also, trying to get my point down in a paragraph or two, is not always the easiest. It's definently not like a face to face talk. I mean, here we are, trading paragraphs back and forth over a few days. Heckova way to have a conversation, don't you think?

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: Winterizing Engines - To Drain or Not to Drain? - by Russ Berry. What is this strange attraction I have to equipment and machinery? How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most ... [Read Article]
