I worked for a Dutch importer/exporter back in the 80's. We received a shipping container load of paint mixers from China - the type that fit in a hand drill.

They included a packet of photos of the guys making the mixers - they were in a huge unlighted (just large windows) factory with overalls on, gloves, fur hats, etc...

None of those guys were making per day what any American worker would take per hour.

There was no way we could have bought at that price from any American manufacturer.

Like it or not - there is a WORLD full of people willing to work much cheaper than most American factory workers.

Then on top of that, some American unions started turning into mafia controlled gangs with coercion tactics just as bad as the average terrorist, so what else is going to happen???

OF COURSE manufacturers are going to look for greener pastures. That is just reality.

That is the heart of free enterprise - and free enterprise is a huge part of what has made the United States of America the greatest country the world has ever seen.
