Immigrant Americans and "Buy American"

[Inspector Jihad]

Except that's hardly the issue. All those Jobs that went Overseas merely did so to be Competitive Domestically. American Corps are competing against each other and once a few began chasing subsistence Wages Overseas, the rest followed. Not to be Competitive in the Global Market, but to be Competitive in the Domestic Market.

you may not like and wanna stop progress but you need to be competitive on the global market. i don't even know what you're saying now...you've lost whatever coherent points you had.

Why do so many people on these boards hate working Americans so much?

Because they are Canadians!

You're missing some important elements here. Like the effects of free movement of capital between separate, captive labour markets.

I think what made unions grow out of control was that they bridged companies. Unions should be limited to one company per union. With limited membership and funds they wouldn't be as big of a issue.
Those that used to be in manufacturing can now move into the service sector.
