Every person in the know says that China is more friendly to business and has cheaper labor. So, when are we going to listen ad change this?
We have to change our policy toward China, change or tax structure towards corporations, dismantle or reform our unions and do the same with our regulations.
Congress has to start listening and people in the unions have to start understanding the only thing unions are good for are the Union bosses and political parties. They may cover the lazy workers but a good corporation is going to keep good workerrs, give them good working conditions and pay them good wages to keep them. That's only common sense.
We need to start boycotting products made in other countries, and make companies that stay here very rich so they pay their employees well and we show what happens when the Keep it in the US of A.
Really? Then why all the rightwing hysteria about teachers' salaries and benefits?
So tell me how teacher's salaries have anything to do with manufacturing?? We're talking about making and importing something, not unions. Jeez!!
Would you like to talk about union manufacturing jobs in the US being lost when operations were moved overseas to places like China?
Would that make you feel better?
Other than shipping all the costs you mentioned are pretty much the same here as in China.
If labor is an insignificant cost, why were you whining the other day about not being able to afford to hire more help?
never did I say it was insignificant.
Why must you spin what I said? Are you that insecure with your position on this topic?
And the other costs are the same?
Really?
You sure you dont want to retract that rediculous statement?
LMOA....you are a fool.
No, you didn't say 'insignificant'. You said 'small'.
Feel free to tell the class what the BIG difference is.

Teaching Salaries and benefits are a district by district issue and are not related to cost of production. Until Students are regularly logging in to On Line 1-12 Education, in competition with Public School Enrollment, the teachers are safe. Still the issue is both innovation and Labor wars for the rest of us. Interesting, don't you think?

Insiginificant means it is of no significance. It plays no role. It is a non issue.

No, that's not what insignificant means.
I used to drink soda all the time but have since only purchased it ocassionally. Its worth noting that sugary sodas have next to no nutritional value. Sugar is termed "empty calories"the company's controversial practices in India continue involving the over-exploitation of limited water resources and the contamination of groundwater supplies.
Truthmatters... what concerns me is the fact that you harp that Coca Cola is making RECORD PROFITS. Okay, Exxon-Mobile made record profits last year as well. You keep saying that as though making record profits is some kind of obscene act?? When companies make profits, does it anger you? why do you pretend this crap? quit lying. They are complaining we keep them from making money and that China would be make them more money when they are at record profit levels
I know that in other threads you so casually believe that the government should be responsible for this and do that. It is quite endless actually. And of course, it is wrong, in YOUR eyes, that a company should be concerned with PROFITS before it is concerned with the welfare of THE PEOPLE. I find that very, very curious.You jsut dont want to understand the oppositions position so you lie about it.
Coprorations are in business, believe it or not, to MAKE RECORD PROFITS. Since the United States IS a capatalistic nation, we believe that corporations should be free (relatively so) to pursue those profits. And a CEO who guides his corporation to those profits is rewarded. Does that make you angry? Perhaps because YOU are not entitled to those proceeds simply because it "would be fair?"Why do you defend them from trying to talk us into being more like communist China? did you sell your soul to the corporations?
Wow, I am relatively new here and don't know a lot about people yet. But I see where this is going, and I have to say very frankly, that I feel very sorry for you. A corporation making profits in your eyes is a bad thing. The government doing everything is a good thing. Do you not have the ability to provide for yourself? Is there something that generates this tendency to believe in a socialistic reality?Quit lying about my postions and MAYBE you will understand
Sad... very, very sad...

Anyone hear about Coca Cola in India?

Im begining to believe the tea party actually thinks this country IS corporations instead of the government the founders left us.

I don't love America? Wow, and when I joined the Air Force at 18 and volunteered to go to Vietnam, I thought it was because I loved my country. I'm so glad that a person like you straightened me out.
