What about non-union jobs like computer programming and xray techs that are fleeing the country?

"Cheap foreign labor is the best check we have on excessive union demands."

I used to think that way too, but now I see $6.50 an hour foundry jobs here in North Dakota going to China. Where does it end?

Is that the Libertarian/Corporate spin these days? Cheap labor is a short-term profit strategy. When the American consumer's market power is eviscerated, the multinationals will move elsewhere - faster than now.
