Are you sure you want the government owning any manufacturing in this country? They bought stock in the banks and insurance companies so now they are involved in your banking and healthcare.

The latest news that struck me was that the Big 3 are shutting down plants here in the US for extended periods of time because of slow sales thus laying off thousands or more American workers.

The japanese companies however are closing for extended periods and laying off workers in other countries. So basically the way I see it those import companies are doing more to keep our people working than the US manufacturers are. Hmmmm

The place I work at has had to do the same as well since we run alot of parts for the auto industry. I don't however see anyone bailing us out, never have.

Also I read where our newly elected President is wanting to spend more than he said initially to stimulate the economy and create government paid jobs.

Could someone up there figure out that we need to figure out how to keep the manufacturing jobs in this country instead of having everyone work for the government? I mean if your build roads and bridges and things that is fine and they are needed but do they really produce any revenue to pay for themselves?

Just venting I guess but I don't see where giving more money out instead of trying to get industry back into the US is going to fix anything. Eventually you have to manufacture something to sell to make money, and the building programs and stuff don't do that.
