I must eat, bye all.

I realize that's why they're doing it, but those tax cuts won't help the economy because of it.

Lt. The cheap labor I'm talking about is the Mexican, Chinese, Brazilian, Bolivian etc. labor. Not the Michigan, Indiana, Ohio labor. When they close their plants in the 90s and moved to those foreign countries, they laid off the workers, the workers lost their homes and started the downward cycle of property devaluation. I remember the news reports.

Lt. They're not. Taxes are actually paid by the consumer. There aren't enough of them left to cover the tax.

Allan Unions are in every state. The best example of a Japanese plant that is thriving is in Indiana. The Subaru plant is 100% efficient and is considered a back yard environmental success. They recycle 100% of their waste, recycle all of their styrofoam packing and burn 5% of their waste cleanly heating downtown indianapolis. That is innovation. They are in the middle of union territory and manufacture success using American labor. I buy what's made in America when ever possible.

The greed of the corporations is not creating cash flow or jobs. The cash is going to foreign countries and ends up as debt. 495billion last year and 709.8 billion so far this year. The only jobs being created are in foreign countries. If you think it is so wonderful that corporations are moving operations to foreign countries, just look at Wall St. The market is going down because there are finally enough unemployed that have exhausted their savings that they can't afford the imported products at any price. By imported, I mean the "American' companies that manufacture there. While CEOs and execs make millions short term, the economy fails.

The problem with everyone with skillls moving overseas is that it results in the failure of the US economy and the government to pay its bills. Foreign workers don't pay into SS, Medicare, property tax, Sales tax, Income tax or any other tax. That's what is wrong with the government now. They don't take in any tax on the 16 million lost jobs. These jobs need to get back to the US if the economy is to survive. It's almost too late.

Unions aren't excluded from the Japanese companies. The reason that the unions are voted down is because the Japanese made an acceptable deal with labor and because labor is happy, they don't vote the unions in. I worked for Honeywell and they did the same thing. They paid well and gave benefits, operated more efficiently. Consequently they didn't have to deal with unions that are greedy themselves. The big three treated workers badly in the past and now have to deal with the consequences. They need to come to an agreement with labor to end the problems. It would benefit everyone in the long run. Without it the big three are doomed to fail.

Immigration was fine when we had a surplus of jobs that needed doing. Now we have 24.5 million out of work and we don't need more immigrants.

Sure, so they can undercut American labor and bring the wages down. That means less money to spend for everyone, the sales drop, more drop in the Stock Market. No one thinks it through. Surely the employers that are just looking for cheaper labor. The illegals should be expelled and immigration curtailed until Americans are back to work.
