So, So right. Let's see. The companies go over seas to produce, get away from payroll taxes and regulations, cheap labor, (sometimes sweat shop labor) give exec's bonuses for doing it, that no one in their biggest dream is worth and then they have the balls to ask for tax payer help. Don't get me wrong. I'm a strong supporter of union labor. Been a union member for over 40 yrs. The union didn't decide to "out source" jobs.
I've said for years that the politicians will one day wake up and realize they don't get tax money when the jobs go over seas. DUH!
I don't have the answer but it's getting scary.
