I've seen it and looked in before, but don't have it bookmarked currently. I'm sure it's a good thread and they do a great job. I may look in more now that you've reminded me. Just maybe it's my optimism the jobs will come back here some day. I've said before, not in my lifetime though. I don't think anyone has a thread started about domestic job creation? Don't worry, I'm not about to start one. <G>. How many domestics and foreign owned plant and foreign plants are adding jobs,in America?

How could Jobs come back to America someday? Take China for instance. The people have had a taste and believe more in capitalism. Yes, there are big barriers yet still. The way I see it. Simple as they will go through what this country has already been through. When they have enough internal demand. They will have less to ship abroad. Apply the same to Brazil,India and all countries that have taken in wealth. With the balance of currency in their favor. Where will they spend it, what will they spend it on, who will they buy from.

On the other hand, My Nike example of the Vietnamese strike.
IMO those workers don't trust the system yet. Worker conditions are most likely not very tolerable. When inflation rises in this country workers want more also. In that country they just don't know who to trust yet. In this country workers have trusted unions and politicians to make thing all better. How's that been working out? However some American companies are trusting countries like China, India, Russia,Brazil, and even are arch enemy at one time, Vietnam for now. Say, wasn't Japan are arch enemy at one time before? It could fail in places. Look at Mexico, ask yourself why is it not working for their country. If it fails what then?
