Are you insane!!! It is because American companies finding cheaper employment for their own financial gains that we've been in this crisis for so long. You can't expect that to benefit all americans, it only benefits a small few. It's pure economics. You take jobs away from people to make a quick buck and leave others without employment, the middle class. If the middle class americans aren't working then america is screwed. The poor don't account for income and the rich are too greedy and avoid taxes. It's a recipie for freaking disaster. What made the US an economic powerhouse was the automotive industry that boomed after WWII. Where things were made in America and Americans bought our own products. What's happening is, people are becoming greedy, American Greed, and finding ways to make cars cheaper overseas and thus taking money out of the US circulation.

You can't expect something to stand strong if you're putting in little and always expecting a lot. That principle only works for so long. Read up on economics and what really happened to put America into its current sorry state. Useless wars inside and out and greed: Carrier for example, are what put America where we are now. We're trillions in debt, our petrodollar is dying, and we're told everything is okay and it really isn't. Not wanting to pay Americans to do work just because you can find a place where you can get labor done cheaper sounds good to a business but to a country that used to rely on that income to remain an economic powerhouse...it sounds like bullshit. And it is.

Cheaper employment = lower prices so all of us will see financial gains regardless ... 

It's the middle class that needs to rethink their value, who said capitalism wasn't going to bring in a vicious cycle of poor and rich ? 

Greed is an issue since a lot of big US companies are keeping the cash rather than investing it for some reason ...
