That’s gotta leave a mark.

Obamao’s war on America marches on.

The Liberals/Progessives a so smart, since they DO NOT RECOGNIZE THAT COMPANIES AND THE RICH MOVE WHEN TAXED HARD.

/Sarcasm OFF

Bammy cares about people...just not Americans.

"...I'm moving. They are doing everything possible to destroy jobs."

That's their plan, Stan. Turn the U.S. into a third-rate, third world $hit hole where everyone is in a perpetual state of indentured servitude to the gov't. That's Obama's wet dream.

[Wolfie]

Don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.

[Frantzie]

Wow. This is a big deal and they are an excellent and giant company.

[nascarnation]

It’s painful to hear but it’s sadly true.
My hope is that we can use unemployment to nuke the Baraqqis.

For a while I thought MSM/SCM was going to let them skate on 10% unemployed as the “new normal” but I think even they have realized popular opposition is too great.

Such a shame.....

Emerson was established in 1890 as Emerson Electric Manufacturing Co. by Civil War Union veteran. If Obama has his way, every block of the foundation of our history will be destroyed.

The democrat party and it’s leader Obama, can now claim another record setting scalp.

[moonrush23]

They are purposely doing this to destroy our country completely. China will own us very soon folks. Why our own military has not removed him from office along with a few other in congress is beyond me. We as a nation are finished.

Farr added that companies will continue adding jobs in China and India because they are "places where people want the products and where the governments welcome you to actually do something.

When Third World nations famous for poverty, Communism, socialism, and stifling government bureaucracies are more attractive to American companies than America, you know we've gone seriously off the tracks.

[Yaelle]

DUH!!!! Everyone gets this. The Obama Administration knows this. They do not care. Their agenda has NOTHING to do with a free country as described in the Constitution.

“It was time” for a black President, so skin color trumped any fact-checking (ironically) or even reason, and we got pwned.

[Drew68]

The federal government is "doing everything in [its] manpower [and] capability to destroy U.S. manufacturing," says David Farr, chairman and CEO of Emerson Electric Co.

Yep!

Here's a similar thread I posted a couple of days ago: Feds raid Gibson offices (Gibson guitars)

[Rodamala]

I’m looking for the Powerpoint presentation at Emerson’s website that was alluded to in the link... and I’m not finding it. Anyone find it? Please post a link.

[Texas resident]

Ask any business owner who their biggest adversary is and they won’t say any of their competitors, it’s governments at all levels. When the feds, states and locals keep coming back to rape businesses, they reach a breaking point and make decisions to keep their businesses solvent. Emerson isn’t doing anything that other businesses have been doing for 25 years. If this country is ever run by pro business government again, we might regain our competitive edge, but this crowd in dc and state capitals look at businesses as cash cows for them to take their funds.

[Realism]

a “lack of U.S. $ support” for manufacturing.”

Yeah, apparently not enough subsidies to go around.

This company has been investing billions and cutting jobs here in the US over the last 10 years offshoring to LOW WAGE COUNTRIES.

“I am not going to hire anybody in the United States. I’m moving. They are doing everything possible to destroy jobs.”

David Farr et.al, should follow their money and their jobs to Beijing or Brasília, where ever, and get the F***** out.
