How many more "nails" do we have to lose, i.e., "want", before you guys wake up?

What do you suggest in an ecomony where as good, if not better trained and equiped employees can and will work for smaller wages to do the same work that used to be done here?

Seems to me that someone manufacturing a commodity in North Carolina is S.O.L. if that same commodity can be made somewher else, shipped here and still be sold for less because his total labor/regulatory/medical/legal/etc. cost renders him non-competitive.

You can bark at "us guys" all you want ... spell out an alternative that works in today's world.

YOU SAID..."You can bark at "us guys" all you want ... spell out an alternative that works in today's world."

We have..till we are blue in the face...its called making AMERICA more competitive by doing stuff to help ALL business HERE in the US.

Stuff like TAX REFORM....REAL TAX REFORM...WHERE IS IT?

REGULATION REFORM...WHERE IS IT?

LIMITING GOVERNMENT SPENDING...WHERE IS IT?

TORT AND LIABLILITY REFORM...we have started on a first step...NOW FINISH THE JOB.

No...guys like Bill Thomas...a huge disappointment, are spending their energies doing cronyism trade agreements to help selected major contributors....whether in China or in our southern borders.

BOTH PARTIES have been part of the problem up till now. Create a problem...then offer a crony type of solution for it.

No...as evidenced by the last Omnibus pork spending bill...and the recent Kelo vs New London SCOTUS decision...we are going the wrong way over here.
