Instead of our employees losing their jobs, the people in Congress should be the unemployed. There should be no such thing as a "Career Politician" and there should be no tolerance for "Campaign Rhetoric" (another word for lie). Vote them all out, limit their terms, eliminate that plush retirement package and lifetime medical package they enjoy and let them collect unemployment for 13 weeks. We're accountable, why aren't they? I have been in the plastic film products business for over 30 years and have steadily seen the deterioration of business to China.

Wilks Fri, 26 Jun 2009 21:58:54 +0000 http://www.foundry.org/?p=9414#comment-39126 Wake up America! Damn It! I have owned and operated a plastic molding business for more than 40 years. We used to build injection molds (China has ALL of that work now so instead of 20 employees I have ONE (1) in my tooling shop? On my production floor we had been running 24/7 and employed more than 58 people, that changed too. We currently have: FIVE (5)? This "Cap and Trade" TAX will force me to close my doors! Ok the goverment looses tax revenue, (income and property), I'll no longer be able to support my employees and their famlies. Insurance will not be paid and my venders will loose business. None of my people will be shortchanged! They'll just need to find jobs. Thank You Mr. President. Wake Up America, and do it soon. When you are at war with China and need neucular detenators, send your PO's to China, because those of us that have the skill to machine them will have already left. Good Luck! Tom Wake up America!
