I too am greatly concerned with American jobs going over seas. I call on Ford as one of my largest customers who is almost insisting that we move our plants to comunist China. First manufacturing jobs went to Mexico, now to China and other "low cost countries." We better understand that it's not just union and manufacturing jobs going away.

I was in manufacturing for 15 years helping run factory’s in Mexico. When I was laid off and went to work for the state and got an internet account in 1993 most folks on internet were programmers and network admen’s many saying they were Libertarians for total open free borders and markets. I tried to tell them then someday the internet and computer jobs will move to India. They all made fun and said they were too important and did things that can’t be done remotely. Well guess what the tide has turned everything except for service and delivery trucks can be done in Red China just about. I tried to tell them that in Mexico it was rabid with un-employment and Communism movements to fill the gap. Well now in America the Democrat Socialist are filling the gap. Have no jobs, have no insurance well big Government will fill the gap for you vote Communism, I mean Democrat..
The founding fathers understood this we just fought a war with England over a tax on tea and all imports and all American exports to England. When they wrote the Constitution it supports free trade between states, only the Feds can regulate commerce between the states. They also did not have an income tax, instead they used duties on all foreign imported goods to help raise money and protect the domestic producers.

That's a very important observation you have made. Has foreign business bribery come to America? Many years ago a company I worked for got in trouble for bribing foreign officials (Chinese) to get the business. Now the shoe is on the other foot.
