I tend to agree with you but saving labor costs by moving outside the US is not the only method. As happened in my company years back and a friend's company (both very huge corporations) they announce that they are closing up a facility and that jobs will only be available at "such and such" facility several states away but you will have to 're-apply'. Long time staff, who are too well entrenched in their home state (i.e. can't afford to sell or move without a crippling financial loss) quit or take a small buyout.

Better yet (as happened to a good friend) they hire back the same person for the same job at half the original pay. Then the cycle, maybe 10 or 20 years, starts all over.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
