"Yeah those flat panel TV's will never be under $1,000."

That's the same BS logic applied to PC pricing in the early 90's, Dane.

ECONOMICS 101 IPOD example

Apple makes Ipod over seas for 18.00 and sells it in the USA and internationally for 300.00 keep the difference in the USA they outsourse 1000(example) jobs and create thousands in Calf.

Apple makes Ipod in USA for 90.00 is beat by Sony who makes it for 18.00 and all jobs end?

Just because the product is not Manufactured in the USA does not mean that the jobs stop. Apple has many high paying jobs that come from the product being made outside the USA. These are not Burger Flipping Jobs either they pay big bucks. The last stat I saw showed 4 jobs created for every outsourced MFG job. This is the future and if you legislate the end of it it will cause even more jobs to be destroyed
