Moonbear said:Actually, I have seen that before. In the mid-90s, this was quite common among the pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturing industries, at least in NJ where I was at the time.
Yes those industries were hit first. I meant that this has never happened at the companies mentioned and many other that I have worked with. In fact I have heard the same story dozens of times, all over the country, and I don't see any quality jobs coming along to replace those lost. I believe in free trade, but not reckless abandon. We are becoming a country of Walmart workers, temporary or underemployed, non-benefited workers. Anyone who thinks this is good for America clearly hasn't a clue what's happening out there. There are no quality jobs to replace those lost.
Bush won't even recognize that the problem exists!
