Quote:I don't see anything in that article that has any substance at all. It's just a bunch of rhetoric about how GE is shipping jobs overseas.

GE has a responsibility to its millions of shareholders to make as much money as is legally possible. If that means opening a plant in China, so be it. They're not doing anything illegal or immoral. They are doing what they are supposed to do: make money. If they do anything else, they should be thrown in jail.

And to say they're destroying the moral fabric of the country by opening overseas factories is just complete hogwash.

Absolutely. The thing that they also do to skew the figures in that OP-ED is show the percentage of people employed in the U.S. vs. elsewhere over time. Is it because of "shipping jobs overseas" or is it because of expansion?

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
