dumbbass headline in the St. Petersburg Times today

"where did all the jobs go".

Like they can't figure out that all the manufacturing went to China, the call centers went to Maylasia or India, and the garment factories went to VietNam, by themselves.

Until someone pulls their collective heads out of their collective asses and either makes it more expensive to outsource labor and import products, we'll never be back to the standard we once had.

1. That is some first rate journalism at the St. Petersburg Times!

No wonder Americans are so ignorant.

2. Don't forget Mexico.

Many of our household appliances are no longer American-made. Mexico has received the latest manufacturer Whirlpool just this summer.
