  1. You should ask network companies like Nokia, Siemens, Ericsson and Nortel about their Chinese counterpart Huawei...

    You will receive a blueprint how to destroy your competitors...

  2. Beck is too busy crying over ..... ? why does the imbecile cry anyway. Never can figure that part out.

    The republicans are the ones who began the entire job export business. This is par for the course for the unamerican traitors.

  5. Not quite the same thing, but you're right. All of my understanding of "working for an employer" is vicarious. I've never had a salary or wage job since leaving the military.

    Italian Welders Work On Dallas Bridge—Texans Remain Jobless
    By Rob Sanchez

    The Trinity River Corridor Project, a major Dallas, Texas construction project to build bridges over the Trinity River, is an example of what can go wrong for American workers when work is outsourced to foreign-owned companies.

    The Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, and most of the bridge’s structures were imported from Italian company Cimolai. Texas taxpayers will pay for it all, but the profits from building the bridge will be sent overseas—and Italians on temporary work visas are getting the good paying construction jobs.

    Watch this YouTube video to see raw video footage of the Italian steel arriving at Port Houston and how it was transported by truck [another video] to Dallas for the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge.

    Most news reports call the shipment “steel” but that word is highly misleading. This is no shipload of steel ingots brought here to be melted and turned into finished products. You will see in that video that “steel” means girders, support columns, and many other high-value manufactured components. They are enormous (some look like giant water heaters) and need to hoisted by crane onto trucks to be shipped to the Trinity River Project. All that needs to be done in the U.S. is to set these enormous pieces of steel in place and weld them together like a giant erector set.

    WFAA-TV and KHOU-TV published news reports that describe the tense labor situation. Be sure to watch their excellent video reports because they have information not reported on their text versions, notably more union and worker

  7. So how much money do we owe China? And I mean US gov't and US private sector debt.

    Think that may have something to do with this contract?

  8. lotta good a 'strong military' does you, when the spending for it puts you so far in debt that all you can say is 'yes sir' to the dismantling of your own society

  9. And what politician can cut defense costs without being labeled "unamerican." There are no solutions.... all you can do is watch this train wreck continue.

  10. yes, there is a solution' starting with a barbaque of this nation's sacred cows

    people need to understand that you can't base your survival on nonsense

    how can it not be clear to people that

    - outspending the rest of the world combined on military is not resulting in those formeraly on the other side of the cold war OWNING US?!?!

    - it's insane to borrow from another country, so that you can provide it free defense (like japan and south korea)

    - removing the American worker from everything made in the USA resulting in cheaper goods that no one can buy becasue they have no income

    - the nature of debt hasnt changed since biblical times, only the perception of it?

    - that we cant offer 'the American Dream' to everyone in the word, without the USA become just another 3rd world shithole

    - that having the government guarantee everythign to everyone only guarantees that all the jobs leave the country (or are done by immigrants here under the table) and that we go bankrupt

    the country has to decide whether it wants to survive or not

    it's that simple
