As I said, with all due respect, but is it just me, or does anyone else see something really wrong with this picture?

You beat me to it and you were much nicer than I would have been. I dont get people who cant see the connection between what they are buying and the lack of jobs here. We won't be able to keep paying for our nice lifestyle if we keep giving our jobs to Korea, China, Mexico. Who is ready for their 5 cent an hour job? Maybe its time we stopped giving tax incentives to companies to ship jobs over seas and start hitting them with big tarrifs if they want to bring products here to sell.
