#1 Of course we are. We just create them in other countries.

#2 Sure it is - though now we only create jobs for Obama's cronies.

#3 The jobs are gone period. Production now will go to wherever the costs are cheapest and as long as government makes business pay for everything. This covers anything. Data entry of all sorts, labor will be flex time to use you when needed. Government is at least 30 years behind the times. Government will be the only ones offering full time work with all the perks like 20 year employment. The high income earners are going bankrupt at a very high rate now and the middle class is disappearing. So what is left are allot of low income consumers purchasing the cheapest of everything. 70% of GNP gone, already people can only purchase cheapest concrete coffins or cremation because of money problems. One thought though the state will not leave you laying around to stink up the place should you take that route. Frugal MC Doogle

#4 The lowest cost place to produce a product is right next to where it will be sold. The US is now a higher cost place to manufacture because of stuff like the stimulous package. It raises the cost of manufacture but is 100% wasteful. FDR's stimulous didn't work any better.
