Every year we print calendars, around 10, full color.

It costs us around $20,000. Each time we go back to the plant, they have less and less jobs running. We asked why and they said that everyone's jobbing their work out to China.

Now, we have NO desire to support Red China, and we want to keep our dollars local, but how much longer will there be ANY printing plants in the US??

I cannot believe the attitude of some here who say "Who cares if American jobs or American industries are lost?! If China or illegal aliens can do it cheaper, SCREW the Americans!"

Yuck...

I've been fighting it for several years, and I dread having to do it, but it looks like I'll have to, or go out of business. I'd retire to avoid it, if I were old enough or in the financial position to do it very early, but I'm not; I've got a good quarter century left to go.

At $2000.00 per calendar, you should be ashamed.
Maybe you should print more than 10.
