POPSDon't fall for the recovery hype And this is more proof. More jobs moved away to never return. Direct result of demanding our government punish the rich and regulate businesses. They leave. Wake up, or enjoy systematic poverty throughout our society. Without jobs for the masses, the "luckY" or "smart" or "educated" will have to work twice as hard to pay for the millions that will never be able to support their families again. Plus additional government interference that is going to make everything too expensive for the majority. No magic money tree, small business can't take any more expenses and everything coming from Washington is going to make this worse, not better. China is very happy with our current government plans. Recovery my arse

POPSSome good news in the US Of course, Wall Street disagrees. Though they are cutting some employment/facilities in Oregon & California. It is great to see a mega-national investing in the US and shuttering plants in low wage countries. Bright spots are very welcome!

POPSSo off shoring creates jobs? The article goes on to state that the powers that be are ignoring this, even as our countries crumble under unemployment and increased government spending.

POPSChina grows while the West continues it's descent Over the past ten years, under the radar and the "global economy" BS, they sent their suppliers jobs to China. Now, there customers are there. Which will work fine until the day the Chinese slam shut their borders-keeping our technology, investments and products. Wake up people. This mess is not "subprime mortgages". It is lack of family supporting JOBS. And I'm not talking about the whineass UAW workers jobs. Continue allowing the government to shove high tech and globalization down your throats. Harsh poverty is coming. This is going to make the "Great Depression" seem like a walk in the park.

POPSThose that helped cause this mess. Once again, UK media looks further than their advertisers to explain the truth. Interesting read. But, just like our "experts", totally ignoring the millions of good paying jobs off shored for higher tax revenues from mega-corporations and cheaper socks for sheeple.

POPSAnd the news gets worse for workers The article continues, "And Rhode Island, not generally known as a manufacturing hub, has suffered. The industrial conglomerate Textron Inc., which is based in Providence and makes Cessna jets and Bell helicopters, laid off 2,200 of its 43,000 workers last year." Even this article, arguably the closest thing I have seen to the truth in a long time, is totally missing it. Michigan is not dead because of the "faltering" auto industry. Michigan is dead because the NOW faltering auto makers sent the supplier jobs overseas. To companies where the workers would NEVER be able to buy their products. And now, neither can we. As the mass execution of the middle class rages on, it is apparent that reality is not going to pay the experts a visit soon. We, America, will cease to exist because we traded our jobs, futures and wealth, for cheap socks and bigger government. We could stop it IF we wake up and band together. But we won't.

POPSEconomy: How much proof do we need... Iconic glass/china maker Wedgwood is basically bankrupt. Note the number of employees that make living wages (those IN England/Ireland) and those that make pennies an hour/day. Our economy is crashing because over the past couple decades the world's best CUSTOMERS have lost living-wage paying jobs. Our middle class existence has been offshored. Our rich have gotten richer, we have given our futures to third world countries. Jokes on the experts. The world's best customers are unemployed, credit denied and becoming homeless. Buy local, the job you save may be your own
