That ball has been already determined and in play worldwide...since Nafta and all the other agreements made we, for the most part, aren't aware of.
Of course Silicon Valley wants it to go through.....they're having difficulty getting US students and Citizens here that can compete with the educational and work ethics of those overseas...they well know the difference.
I've talked with Recruiters and others from those 500 Companies and let me tell you they all say they wish Americans could sit in their chairs and observe the mindsets and work ethics of the US people compared with those who come here from overseas. And they all say it's difficult to say that, because Americans once had great work ethics.
93 million working age Americans are out of work. They all lazy? BS! We deal with Chinese all day every day. These people have to have OUR American work force coddle them. They do not innovate as Americans. They steal, reverse engineer and counterfeit.
Tell me...no I'll tell you. Who are the most expelled students in U.S. colleges? Hmmm? Chinese foreign students. Foreign Indians come here to complete their “government subsidized educations”. That is because their crappy institutions of higher learning.
Politicians in return for millions in campaign cash have worked in lock step with corporations to pass policy/trade deals so lopsided against American workers to increase their bottom line at the expense of a nation...ours.
China has no worker safety regulation. No retirement, no environmental safety. No freakin wonder it's cheaper to do business in China. Our guys come back from business in China horse or ill because of the pollution in the air/water/food chain.
Our engineering staff is the best and brightest. They are being laid off because of the “unspoken of” corporate age discrimination.
This goes way beyond “lazy” Americans with little work ethic. This is about insane amounts of cash, driving a relentless double digit growth patten to appease investors and pad the pockets of corporate elites that rake in 300% what the average American worker makes....even when they perform poorly. I'm sick and tired of the American worker getting slammed.
This scratch my back, i’ll scratch yours buddy buddy system of government has dismantled American manufacturing. Millions upon millions of HARD WORKING American workers have been thrown into poverty and seen their positions shipped overseas to communist China and elsewhere that work their people to exhaustion for paltry compensation.
Damn I despise the lie that American workers are lazy.
The fortune 500 companies want management to be on the job 24 - 7, and lay off our baby boomer and Gen X U.S. staff with deep experience and knowledge to move that work offshore to people who make $5K a year. Businesses have downsized and not invested in training and education for 20 years to cut expenses, so there is no backup or up and coming stars in the U.S. This country and it’s business are taking their own customers out of the workplace. Where do all these service workers who are being laid off go? There’s nothing left to retrain for. They wind up on the unemployment rolls, followed by working at some place like McDonalds who can’t get kids to show up for work. We are crazy! We are killing our own economy, and no one seems to care.
