... and here I thought it was the manufacturing base moving offshore, outsourcing and the flood of illegals.

Technology is good for jobs... Manufacturing has moved overseas and that has displaced a lot of jobs.

Lazy union workers are to blame for our high unemployment.
Because of their lackadaisical approach to the work force companies were forced to advance technologically in order to make up for their inadequacies.

All of you guys are stupid. Our workers are still the most productive in the world. AND consumption has kept pace with increased production not to mention massively increased the customer base.
Our high unemployment is really only related to drastically under priced labor elsewhere.

So what we are all saying is that because of the unions over reaching and power grabbing during contract negotiations, all in the name of the worker, we are unable to compete with other countries and thus have had a hemorrhage of jobs in order to compete internationally.

No, in other countries... People dont have rights. They can be made to work 12 hours a day, their boss can hit them. They are so desperate for work that they will take any job. Even little kids will work 10 hour days.
They are still too poor to own much of anything after all the hard work...
Furthermore, these countries dont regulate pollution or worker welfare so its corrupt.
American workers shoukd never drop to that level and the US shoukd ban any item coming from such places.

So the solution would be to ban all products from said countries until they have comparable work forces and regualtions as in the U.S.?
I don't believe that would have the desired results we are after.
My first two posts were tongue in cheek.
Oversimplifying is never that simple.
