I AGREE WITH WHAT THE OTHERS HAVE SAID – & SAID SO WELL. ALL OF US in this country need to change our attitude & work on what’s good for ALL of us and for our country – & those in power and those with the big money need to realize that, if they don’t do their part, they may not like living and their children & grandchildren living in what our country could become. . .

A lot of technical jobs have gone overseas. A lot of jobs, period, have been moved to other countries. If we keep shedding jobs and relocating them to other countries at the same rate we have been in the past, no industry will be untouched. The food industry, entertainment industry, clothing industry, among many others, are feeling the impact of all the layoffs in the industries listed above. People without jobs don’t seek medical care, don’t go out to eat, don’t watch movies or buy books or CD’s or TV’s or clothes or furniture. They don’t pay their mortgages after a certain point, so the tax base is reduced and city governments feel the impact. As a result, services are then reduced to cut costs, so the city workers and firefighters and police forces have a layoff. We are in a downward spiral, all because so many (too many) of our jobs have moved overseas and now we don’t have enough work to support our population. Investors continue to take the easy way out (moving jobs) instead of finding ways to do the work here more efficiently and at a lower cost…largely because they want a fast return on their investment and big profits. Before long, Americans are going to have to move to another country to find employment. I know people who have done this already. But no one seems to be taking it seriously or doing anything about this massive problem. Maybe I’m just pessimistic, but it worries and frightens me.
