“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!
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.
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.
