Quote: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?

Without doing any research, I would guess that over the period of the last 20 years, they have expanded to the point of having facilities in 180 countries...I would bet that many of the top level and maybe even mid level management for the facilities are Americans who left the country to run the different overseas facilities...It's also possible that low level common workers have transferred there as well...This would account for a large drop in GE's American jobs and an increase in overseas jobs...It would also be a nice statistic for their opposition to make it look like they are getting rid of American jobs by sending them overseas, even though it's simply Americans transferring from the USA to overseas facilities...
