INDIAN LAND, S.C.

[SeekAndFind]

MAYBE WE CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS HAPPENING:

“The reasons for Keer coming here? Incentives, land, the environment, the workers,” Zhu Shanqing, Keer’s chairman, said on a recent trip to the United States.

“In China, the whole yarn manufacturing industry is losing money,” he added. “In America, it’s very different.”

Dang! Indian Land, SC needs more H1-Bs!

[GoneSalt]

We think it’s impossible to build our own manufacturing to compete with China, so the Chinese show us howcit’s done on our own soil. What a disgrace.

[SeeSharp]

Not so fast. They haven’t met out tort bar yet. They may not be here long.

[wally_bert]

Same in Calhoun county. Please no.

[SeeSharp]

Here's the reason...

Textile production in China is becoming increasingly 
unprofitable after years of rising wages, higher energy 
bills and mounting logistical costs, as well as new 
government quotas on the import of cotton.

At the same time, manufacturing costs in the United States 
are becoming more competitive. In Lancaster County, 
where Indian Land is located, Keer has found residents 
desperate for work, even at depressed wages, as well as 
access to cheap and abundant land and energy and 
heavily subsidized cotton.

Obama will drive those jobs back to China with a $15/hr minimum wage.

Obama will drive those jobs back to China with a $15/hr minimum wage.

And his constant efforts to drive up the cost of energy.

The state of South Carolina is littered with closed electric generating plants, shuttered years before their time, due to carbon dioxide “pollution”.

The whole “Free trade” off shoring thing was a get rich scheme at the expense of our most economically vulnerable small towns and people. I hate Free traitors, go Donald go!
