Pretty frightening isn't it? And yet they still expect us to buy their products. I had someone from New Delhi call me about my AT&T long distance bill last week. I cancelled my service with them.

Wasn't your PT built in Mexico?


Why isn't Chrysler on the list?

PT is built in Mexico?
Pacifica is built in Canada?

Good point. It's a global economy, whether we like it or not.

How do they define the jobs that go overseas? Lets say Amazon decides to move a large number of jobs to a new sales office London to support their European businesses, is that a bad thing?

I would imagine if you looked around your home, you would find the majority of the items you own were made somewhere other then America.
Like the previous post about our PT's.
Made in Mexico by a German owned company and most likely has parts from 10 other countries.

It's almost impossible to buy only, "made in America" now days.

On the flip side. Do we have enough skilled and unskilled labour in the US to manufacture all of these goods?

That's a good point, seeing that 95 percent of the people in this country that want to work have a job.

JOEM is correct. We are part of a growing global economy, no way around it. The problem with a Global economy is that a lot of the poorer nations may be getting our business. Some of these are unstable governments. Any kind of uprising could cause shortages and embargo's, not a pleasant thought. Remember the oil embargo in the 70's ? Good example of what can happen.

Anyone but me remember NAFTA??? If you didin't want things like this to happen-you should have consulted your representatives before it was voted in. Like you actually thought they would stop at just North America? Global free trade is gonna happen.
