American Worker Ad: It's Time to Protect American Jobs

[keiki646]

George W Bush made this AD.. Loser

[xanaduisfaraway]

Take on Indians, they need to deported back , we need to take them now until its too late

[RippinStateCollege]

hey @xanaduisfaraway , fuck you

[TheForwardGaze]

We can't raise taxes on the rich or corporations or cut military spending, so we have to cut social programs, wages and salaries, and break unions. For that, we need all the immigrants we can get. We need a thrifty, obedient workforce for the 21st century, and the Democrat and Republican parties working together can make it happen.

[wby3006]

@TheForwardGaze

Is that facetious? I hope so.

I thought "thrifty, obedient workforces" were abolished by the 13th Amendment...

[TheForwardGaze]

@wby3006 Yes, I was being facetious.

[juicyphxaz]

Being racist toward the blacks is how we got in this mess to begin with. We were so focused on them, caught up in our ungodly hatred that we were to blind to see every other race invading america. This country is founded on 3 races. "native american,whites,and blacks. We couldn't leave well enough alone. blacks don't care about reparations, just to be treated like human beings. NOW, look at the country, all do to us focusing on blacks. In 30yrs this will be the united states of mexico my friend.

[Tuathalful]

Come on America! It's not communism to have a democratic government ensure basic human dignity for all; rest of the world just calls in modern civilisation. Your rich are problem. Your ruling class. But you don't want to hear the truth, its "unamerican" or something...

[sanamagan123]

You know where the problem lies? it's in your spending. Half of your budget goes to protecting yourselves from people who would blow themselves up just to get to you. You're addiction to Mid-east oil is bleeding you dry.

Those who are unemployed are just plain lazy or uneducated. This ad is as dangerous as Nazi rhetoric.

America cant afford a cultural strife within it's borders. You already have more enemies than you can handle. The last thing Americans need is to point fingers at each other

[sanamagan123]

CFA should train their guns on the illegal immigrants instead. Foreign workers will keep on coming until Americans fill in the need for professional workers in this country. Since the 70s, fewer Americans earned bachelor degrees. The result is the shortage of workers in the medical, education & IT sectors. America will be in bigger trouble if foreign workers should decide to go back to their country right now.

This ad will achieve nothing but fuel discrimination against other colored people.

[sanamagan123]

The thing is, if the US government would close its doors on legal foreign workers, major manufacturers would close its shops and put up a new ones in Mexico where a cheaper workforce is in abundance.

Illegals, by all means, should be deported.

[sanamagan123]

Americans will lose their jobs one way or the other. This is the result of the Globalization the Americans had so vigorously promoted since the 80s, during the time when they controlled the trade of almost everything. From cars, televisions, communication, computers, toys, weapons, appliances, microchips, you name it. They controlled technology at that time.

Now, asian countries are catching up. And they are backed by billions of very cheap and efficient workforce. Too late for protectionism.

[migkillertwo]

I dont just disagree with this video, I was actually offended by it. Protectionism never has, and never will work. Free trade FTW

[wby3006]

Well, I am just broken up because you are offended.

It is not Protectionism, it is stopping the corrupt policy of giving American jobs to people from other countries, just because they will do them for cheaper (they don't do them BETTER, just cheaper). NAFTA and the H1B Visa program are all about cheaper labor. Class warfare, pure and simple.

I hope I'm wrong, but my belief is that the lies, treachery, and treason are only going to end one way...like Paris in 1789, or St. Petersburg in 1917.

[migkillertwo]

"It is not Protectionism"

its protectionism. This ad clearly and unambiguously supports state protection of american jobs.

"they dont do them better, just cheaper"

*facepalm* There isn't any workable definition for doing a "good" job other than producing something that is to be consumed. You can't produce a good car unless people want to buy it. Likewise, your labor isn't good labor unless someone (aka, a capitalist) wants to consume your labor.

[migkillertwo]

"NAFTA and the H1B Visa program are all about cheaper labor."

And so what? It lowers our cost of living. Why should we artificially inflate the wages of american workers at the expense of immigrant workers or american consumers?

And do you really think free trade is "treachery"? You really think it's treachery for the state to not artificially inflate the jobs of american workers? Trust me, the real treachery of protectionism will come to an end, and there's not going to be a fucking vote.

[YOLI588]

Then you have them bring brother,sister they all work in the same place then the employer finds a way to layoff the higher payed american and don't tell me this is not true because i was that american in my job for 40 year's. This illegal girl came in and my boss told me to show her how to run the machine i did not want to but i did,well she took my position and i quit i was ready to retire but still had about a year to go. But this is what i mean if you don't call it taking your job what is it

[YOLI588]

Even the high collar men hire illegal's ,they can afford to pay American's why don't they do it ? the goverment needs to stop illegal entre altogether, I am not prejudice but lets face it there are to many illegal's here ,i am a mexican american my dad was from mexico my mom from texas i go back to the early 60's i have seen this problem grow. they come then they bring all the family find a job are paid way less.

[jose1camarena]

that black lady came from africa. that guy looks like hecame from europe. they dont deserve to be here

[TaxpayerX]

You must come from Mexico. You don't belong here-go back to your country stupid.

[jose1camarena]

haha. taxpayer, i always pay my taxes on time and i payed for my citizenship here. took the test and aced it. i probably know more about youe country than you do. m,aybe you should go back to where your ancestors came from europe ireland or wherever the came from, unless your a native indian you have no say-so.

[TaxpayerX]

Now you need to go to school and learn how to speak English and learn about your country. You will never know about my country more than I do. My people have been here for centuries speaking English. It's only a matter of time before you and your people are kicked out of this country for being here illegally or you can stay and go broke. But please learn English, this is the US, not Mexico.

[jose1camarena]

i doubt we are going to go anywhere. all those people out of jobs are lazy who would rather be on un-employment then to be out there searching for a job. ive been out there looking for a 2nd part tme job, costco,u.s. foods and fed-ex all called me back after i was very persistent with them. all it takes is a bit of time and effort to find jobs. oh and i have been here since i was an infant my parents brought me here in 88. ive been here all my life and speak english vey fluently

[Daovonnaex]

newsflash: the indians were CONQUERED

[FlintfromOhio]

great add ,

[Godsmack123445]

u guys don'd understand yet, even immigrants are affected by the global economy. The only resposinbles of this whole mess are the big corporations taking the jobs to cheaper labor countries.

[recto89]

The only people that benefit from outsourcing are the WTO. Government officials from North Korea, Philippines, Mexico and Honduras because they can send their people as Illegals to Japan, China and the USA and steal money and Jobs away from born citizens from their destination countries. Also these government officials from North Korea, Mexico, Honduras and the Philippines can Ponzi scheme the rich countries along with their Wall Street friends.

[swamimans]

illegal immigrants arent causing job loss. its lazy americans who want to work less for more. in england the polish immigrants talk of how lazy the british are in response to the immigrant backlash from eastern europe overthere. its a global market and capital moves where it can be utilized the best. u better get used to it its over and to late now to complain about it now. how much do u want to stock a shelf at walmart 90,000$

[kornrockshard]

I think they are showing what all americans already know that alot of ILLEGAL Immigrants are taking more and more of our jobs.

[meyh]

This ad stinks.

And I don't think that Mexican people (for instance) really take Americans jobs. Like in my country (france), immigrants usually take jobs that native people doesn't want anymore....

[MrRogersHasAGun]

You are right, it's just Americans are very racist. Trust me, I'm an American.

[iloveallecchianime]

Glad I dont work or I could have been one of those laid off workers... PHEW!!!

[kaz11007]

you guys are always bitchin about socialism but many of you introduce the ideas makes no fkn sense

[TruthBrigadeYT]

EXCELLENT AD!!!

[NOMCCBAMA]

LMAO

[NOMCCBAMA]

No They lose their job because some greed fuck will hire some dumb immigrant for slave wages. How would you like to work for less because some third world retard came to your country and is dumb enough to think $7 an hour is big bucks.

[Jonesp2929]

Who is the greed fuck, the Capitalist employer. Capitalism is the base for our country. we are in free world. Don't forget we sell Pepsi/Coke in China and bring the profits to USA. and we use that tax money for our schools. Do you say that all the other countries should stop American goods import, so that they can have their ppl to stay in their countries. Free economy is a sword with double edge.

[NOMCCBAMA]

Apparently you haven't lost your job to some immigrant who is willing to live in a storage bin.

So I guess your in favor of opening our borders to who ever wants to walk in here. All countries sell their goods to other countries and tax them that should support THEIR CITIZENS.

[kaz11007]

you are going for what the US stands for. free market. we sacrifice the security of our own people for economic freedom.

[NOMCCBAMA]

The US is supposed to be a government of the people , by the people, FOR THE PEOPLE. Not a government for global corporations and corporate scum fucks to use to rule the world.

Please watch this watch?v=6zFAH9PIhQs

"The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first."

[kaz11007]

so you believe in socialism?

i certainly dont see anything evil about it

[NOMCCBAMA]

Well i believe it exists.

Do I believe it is a good form of government? NO

I believe socialism is nothing more than a dictatorship marketed as a "sharing of the wealth.

Where the people are enslaved to serve the "greater good" (the 'elites" greater good) And when you become no longer profitable in their eyes your recycled. We're cattle to them.

[kaz11007]

thats what i have been trying to tell people for the longest time

[solanor2003]

FUCK NO!!! FACE IT YOU GUYS ARE LAZY THATS WHY YOU LOSE YOUR JOB!!!!! we need more smart people to takeover so we can fix the economy!!!!!!!!!!! :P

[NOMCCBAMA]

We need more US citizens to stand up to our back stabbing government who is screwing us over in favor of the corporations. Americans aren't lazy wetbacks are. They are to lazy to change their country. It's easier to come here ans sponge off of us.

[muffinsilke]

You do not Know nothing about south america's issues, find out first, then make an opinion, greetings from Peru...

[NOMCCBAMA]

I know we should take care of our own first. I know what they are doing is wrong. I know that coming here, invading our nation and causing us problems isn't going to fix their problem there. I know they know what they are doing is wrong. I know that I care about my country. And I don't want them ruining it. I know if this was their country they would feel the exactly same way I and millions of Americans do about both legal and illegal immigration . Please watch this video watch?v=n7WJeqxuOfQ

[kaz11007]

i have a quick question for you. do you think the war in iraq was a good idea?

[kaz11007]

you know whats so ironic? is that the republicans were in office for 8 years and they promote less government and all that. seems to contradict your statement doesn't it?

[solanor2003]

FUCK NO!!! FACE IT YOU GUYS ARE LAZY THATS WHY YOU LOSE YOUR JOB!!!!! we need more smart people to takeover so we can fix the economy!!!!!!!!!!! :P

[aditya6355]

why dont the world stops using Cocacola, Subway, KFC, Ford .... ( u know the list )... This doesn't make sense. America has benefited from globalistaion then anyy other country and it still is complaining ..

[JKB76]

We and the Republicans caused this mess. For the past 30 years American wages have been stagnant yet Americans refused to limit themselves. They lived on credit. As in a poker when you keep borrowing to stay in the game. Then Bush comes with his "recovery" plan in 02 which spends 800 billion. 3/4 of it goes to the richest 1%.Then the Iraq war and his stupid Medicare entitlement and thus no money. Now the conservatives are telling you it was immigrants. Please don't fall for that.

[shaniianderson]

I'll tell you how the illegals have affected me.....one of them killed my son on a construction site!! But then, we've all been told they only want jobs we won't work....RIGHT! The snake is still out there too.......no one did anything about it!! This is Washington state we're talking about here. Bunch of traitors.....we need to ship the illegals out and all the politicians with them......The days coming when the American people won't tolerate this crap any more!

[jackbelias]

The days coming when the American people won't tolerate this crap any more!

I think that day is comming fast. This issue makes our blood boil and both parties have united against the American people because industry funds the candidates. Politicians arent going side with the people anytime soon.

Sorry to hear about your son, too many of our countrymen pay the ultimate price to protect employers from paying a fair wage. We need the military on the border, Id be happy to pull a tour.

[hamer500]

I hear all these excuses about how they take jobs that nobody wants. What? Yeah, how may of our kids make $16/hr picking tomatoes in the clean fresh air? The only work they can find is for fast food and retail chains, because of these migrant workers take the jobs EVERYBODY wants. Also saw a group of them (30 on my street today) working for Verizon laying the new FIOS lines. Nope, not a job anybody wants. Road crews? Nope...Whatever!

[jf3mo]

Try $16/day. Go on. Work a 12-16 hour day, hunched over, in the 'fresh air' for 16 bux.

[hamer500]

$16 an HOUR- direct quote from a farmer in illinois, on the news, who said he could not get AMERICANS to pick tomatoes for those wages. He said he wasn't going to plant any crops this year, because he didn't want to pay penalties if caught hiring illegals. Also fresh air beats the hell out of scarred faces from acne, which kids get working fast food.

[NOMCCBAMA]

BS I work in an iron foundry for $13 an hour. In conditions I'm sure are far worse than picking tomatoes. WAKE UP!!!! Do you honestly believe that in this economy. With 10 million unemployed that this guy can't get people to pick tomatoes for $16 an hour. Stop buying the BS propaganda on the TV. Why do you think the government is spending millions on ad campaigns and rebates to make sure we are still watching TV? They let the illegals in here on purpose to drive our wages down. And form the NAU

[NOMCCBAMA]

That is what will happen if we continue to allow our government to screw us over. Only it won't be by choice anymore.

[kaz11007]

what do you mean the government? the companies got us into this recession

[NOMCCBAMA]

The corporations have the government in their pockets

[Houshalter]

@hamer500, blame minimum wage laws, unions, etc. They used to grow alot of tomatoes where I live. The migrant workers demanded minimum wage and hourly pay. So then they started picking half of what they used to and wasting time and it cost the farmers to much.

As a result, the migrants no longer have jobs, the farmers are poorer, and tomatoes are more expensive and have to be shipped from other states. Everybody loses. Get out of your fantasy where free trade is "evil" or whatever.

[Realizalize]

go to the real

american workers organazations,

they have been around since work itself,

f .... this kind of dissolidiration.

it shapes the look against everyone who has a job. sick agenda.

[BeyondThePale21]

and many foreign national get free yes free ESL lessons from Literacy Volunteers of America and other local orgs. Companies give grant money and they get free ESL and they drive up in BMWs, Lexus, Mercedes and take extravagant vacations!!! Something wrong with this picture????? I know - I volunteered - when I saw this I stopped - they make more than I do! I scrape! to get by!!!

[EUamerican]

Yes, and I know, as I too was such a volunteer. There is an entire, separate, well hidden, underground - help system for illegal immigrants in America...

I once taught English to such immigrants and saw first hand how local companies sponsor ESL courses in beautiful buildings...

[BeyondThePale21]

not just illegals - they are legal - make 6 figures and take free ESL and send their wives to free ESL instead of paying for it

Kids go to private schools and they fly around the world on vacations!

[GTA2SWcity]

I tell ya what. I'm sick of the bs. Since I can't afford a cozy university cat-house education, I gotta work. More useful that way. As a co-owner of a mom and pop business I am constantly having to look out for being undercut. I'm neither lazy nor do poor work, they can just do it cheaper and in greater numbers.

Fuck dependency on gov't aid, BTW.

Admittedly, they're trying to survive--but much more come along and it will break my business.

So,

[iprazhm]

Of course we realize who instigated this repression: The banks giving loans to illegals illegally buying homes and others, who could'nt afford to pay them back and then ultimately the msm who created, exploited and feed the fear until it grew into this repression. BUT we also realize that illegals held American jobs and are there waiting to take remaining jobs and those created in the future. We should not have to compete with illegal foreign criminals for jobs. That is the point.

[Abendzeit]

The message they will take wrongly is:

Another american has lost his job because of foreighners.

A patriot will dismiss the fact that the goverment is causing this problem.

[Abendzeit]

And what will change ones the imigrants are aloud into america?

The companys will not rase the salleries just because they have to employ americans... and we know that will become a problem, because the reason why companys take foreighners is because they take low pay.

The advertisment in my eyes is just going to course another problem.

Plus we know how many idiots there are out there who will take the message wrongly and start accusing foreighners instead of the goverment.

[MissouriRoy]

ABendzeit, I have to challenge what seems like anti-American-worker bigotry in your comment. The government says we have 12 million Americans of every race, ethnicity and social status who are actively seeking a job without success. Yes, there are some lazy Americans. But these 12 million are not among them. I WILL agree with you on this: The problem is not that "foreigners take American jobs. Rather, U.S. corporations take jobs from Americans and give them to foreign workers. Let's stop that.

[129dragonrider]

are you smokin crack??

With your reasoning I guess we should open the borders and let everyone come in the USA and take jobs for less money than American workers make. Yea! lets lower min.wage to $16 a day.

YOUR A DUMB ASS. I hope 1 day soon someone from Mexico is willing to do your job for half what you make. That will help you understand the problem....

[kaz11007]

why not? isnt this a free country??? what you are saying is socialsim

[Abendzeit]

Foreighners dont take american jobs... americans are just to lazy to aquire for those jobs.

[clampdown9]

Give me a break. It is common sense, not racism. Americans of all races and colors are losing their jobs. Unemployment as of today is at 7.6%, projected to go to 10% by Larry Summers, President Obama's economic advisor.

[MissouriRoy]

There is no suggestion in this ad that foreign workers who came last year did something wrong. But there is a strong claim that a policy bringing in 1.5 million foreign workers last year while 2.5 million Americans lost their jobs is rather insane. Greedy corporations have been allowed to exploit American and immigrant workers alike by claims that policies to restrict immiGRATION amount to bashing immiGRANTS.

[MissouriRoy]

It is very important to be clear whether the issue is immigrants or immigration. Every nation chooses the number of immigrants to allow each year based on what it decides in the national interest. This ad suggests that 1.5 million foreign workers this year is not in the national interest. There is nothing anti-immigrant about that.

[Jonesp2929]

yes This ad suggests that 1.5 million foreign workers this year is not in the national interest. But only to few of us who seriously follow the ad.

For others it means " Get these non-americans outta here"

[DharmaLightPro]

They tell us they aren't anti-immigrant, but seems they are bashing "foreign workers" now. No wonder these clowns can't get anyone elected nor gain the support of Americans. Just look at Senator Gillebrand, she doesn't even support your hateful policies anymore. Time to quit wasting bandwidth.

[RevBillyBlight]

Tsk. This is looking awfully anti-immigrant.

More neo-con shit, mayhaps?

[illegaldestroyer]

It's time to cut back on legal immigration and to greatly increase efforts to deport illegal aliens. Obama has stopped the implementation of the E-Verify program that aids businesses in finding illegal workers; this is a disgrace and it must not stand. Contact your US Reps to demand that E-verify be used immediately.

[kaz11007]

why would you ever want cut on legal immigration. legal immigrants have brough so much innovation, and new brilliant ideas to this country... and last time i checked we were a market based system and its a free country so dont you think i as a businessman should be able to hire whoever i want? capitalism is based on making money. so if i can get more money using Mexicans why not? why would i want to pay an American citizen 10bucks an hours when someone else can do it for 5???

[djmopa]

Capitalism is good, however... this has nothing to do with capitalism here in the states... it has to do with people who do not have the legal right to work here, and who are not paying taxes...

Capitalism is what made this the greatest country in the world... but those days are over... This isn't the same country it was when my father was born... The days of industrial is over... and now our jobs are being transferred to other countries, who will work harder and for cheaper..

[MissouriRoy]

Kaz11007 suggests that this ad is strange because it fights against a capitalism that is set up to hurt as many people as it takes to make money. That is the point of the ad, that a national community's government should set rules (as in immigration limits) that protect its workers from unfettered capitalism. Every nation sets immigration policy in tension between the greed of its industries and the needs of its workers. Lately, the U.S. forgot about its own workers.

[MissouriRoy]

Formoola, I'm not aware of anybody asking legal immigrants to go back. "They" are "us" now. The policy question for the nation is whether it makes sense to import another 1.5 million foreign workers this year while 11 million American citizens and authorized immigrants already here are unemployed. This does not blame the immigrant who have come. It blames elected officials for not paying attention and for allowing greedy corporations to continue to import workers.

[bayareababe2004]

Anyone living a lifestyle like the kind in Detroit? Or may'be nothing but government jobs or possibly no jobs at all, except for foreign visa holders or guest workers? LOL

FYI Before you rant "nativist" I'm a naturalized US citizen born in North Korea living in San Francisco, CA.

[formoola]

The new government must try to provide a stimus package that enables all small businesses to get the latest technologies (subsidize communications technology/blacberries/whateve­r) cheaper for americans.. Extensive use of technology at grass roots was the main reasons why the US became a super power decades back..

[formoola]

And.. some of the countries where the legal immigrants come from: Are full of American products/patents that contribute lot of wealth back to American businesses and poeple in those countries lose their jobs there and come to America for jobs..

[rebelstang]

Yep! It's a Mess!

Lower Taxes &

Bring The Jobs Back. To America!

[formoola]

Shame. Just because the economy is screwed coz of corrupt CEO's and so many other dynamics, blame and pick on all 'LEGAL' foreign workers ?? so cheap and starting a newer hate campaign ?

Remember: America was/is a land of immigrants. Brilliant immigrants also contributed in making this country a hi-tech super-power.

Legal immigrants: What abt them now? when u wanted them - got them here and now suddenly ask them to go back ? They PAY all taxes / obey laws unlike illegals.

[gunnyranger2]

The democrats won't do anything to change this because it is their new voting block.

They are going to have to be forced to change it by"We the People"!

[kaz11007]

i think this commercial is pretty strange.. isnt this what capitalism is based on make the most amount of money and spend as low as you can. so if i can hire cheap labor i will do that. i think big corporations dont give a shit about this great nation all they care about is money, more and more money

[illegaldestroyer]

You agree with the betrayal of American workers by big business then. Big business wants the cheapest labor force that they can get, and they get it through the US allowing massive numbers of immigrants into the USA (2 million last year). This keeps wages down for American workers. Obviously, you don't give a sh*t about the American worker

[ZaZona]

I wish to thank the CFAW for running this TV ad. Most Americans have no clue about how H-1B is ravaging their jobs so hopefully this can help to educate them on the issue.

[vvikramraj]

So do Americans little know about how American conglomerates have reduced so many companies worldwide to dust under the pretext of a 'global market'. Apparently, what goes round, comes around as well

[evermindro]

Oh! Almost forgot:

Who generated this bloody economical crisis?!

Can't hear you!...

[clampdown9]

Wall Street in conjunction with stupid Bush policies. But that is irrelevant. The fact is that the economic crisis exists, and the foreign workers should leave the United States because they are holding jobs Americans need.

[SoFlaPatriot]

The democrats generated the economic crisis. Let me guess: you thought it was Bush right? Idiot. It is called social engineering. The dems are resposible. Then throw on it the Commodity futures modernization act of 1999 (under Clinton) and you have the destruction of western capitalism. Now you owe me $500 for the lesson. I only take money orders. Any more questions?

[clampdown9]

Just as Bush is leaving office as Texas governor, Enron happens. Just as Bush is leaving office as U.S. Pres, our economy collapses. It seems that Bush propagates an atmosphere of cavalier attitudes, of lack of respect for the law. But I also agree that the Democrats were very close with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and prevented the government from properly regulating those two. I am sure the Dems have their share of blame.

[SoFlaPatriot]

If Bush was governor how does he have anything to do with Enron? I remember those days. An atmosphere of wild abuse by corporations was spawned under the Clinton administration. It was rampant. Clinton created the atmosphere, not Bush, with his anything goes twist the truth, what is the definition of "is" kind of mentality. Enron wasn't the only one. Corporate leaderships acted like anything goes during the Clinton years. It just continued into the Bush years and got worse. Both admins failed.

[clampdown9]

Enron was HQ'd in Texas, Ken Lay was friendly with Bush. I am sure there were big Enron contributions to G.W. Bush political endeavors. Just going back to Bush and the housing disaster, there is a video up on YouTube of Bush engaging in the same type of social engineering. He is talking about a "housing gap" for low income people (i.e.: deadbeats) and he embraces the policy of incentivizing loans to such people. That is a criticism of Bush, who was not a real Republican.

[SoFlaPatriot]

Fair point. No disagreement from me. I was wrong though I thought Enron was Cali based. In the end the majority of those who have destroyed our economic system's integrity could all fit into a single midsized stadium. The rest of us are left holding the bag. Good talking with you and sorry I called you an idiot.

[ThisAmerican1]

Imagine that America FOR Americans. Not only should there be a moratorium on Immigration, but HUGE import taxes on everything from China, Taiwan and Mexico. When it is once again cheaper to produce at home, these big businesses will once again be in their rightful places.

[Jonesp2929]

yeah then China will put the same import tax on the Coke/pepsi, ipod and all the new inventions from US. Then less $ inflow to the country

[ThisAmerican1]

Then American companies like Black and Decker, Mr Coffee, etc, etc, etc...will be forced to bring manufacturing back HOME. They are the only one's getting rich on the slave labor in foreign countries as the price of the product doesn't decrease when they offshore it's manufacturing. Boycott any American product made in China let them tax our exports, like they tax our imports. This BS has got to STOP. The US citizen gets screwed either way. I'd rather Americans at least have jobs!!!

[Jonesp2929]

Then we will no more be Capitalist but a socialist. Then we will fight among ourselves for equally sharing everything. God knows our mighty USA may become 50 states. where is the USSR now.

[Jonesp2929]

I mean 50 countries

[recto89]

But Look when the US out souce our Manufacturing Jobs to China. The Chinese Job Recruiters will just pass the low wage manufacting jobs to North Korean Refugees and Filipino Migrant Workers. Its The Philippines , North Korea and Mexico that benefits From Globalization Because they can take Money away from China and the USA. By sending their people as Illegal Aliens.

[ThisAmerican1]

That's what I mean. IF US manufacturers outsource their companies to foreign workers to avail themselves of slave wages, TAX the crap out of the imports. The consumer doesn't benefit from tis, only the companies. The product is often inferior, yet the price is the same. NO MORE!!! Make the domestic market MUCH more attractive than the foreign market.

[lahcpunx]

hell yeah!!!!!!! buy American products that are made in America. i do! its some times a hassle and a little more expensive but worth it. even beer. i dont drink bud/miller/coors. they are all foreign owned. i only buy Pabst owned brands. they are the last American owned company. and i have to go looking for there beer. but its worth it. support American made and owned!!!!!

[ThisAmerican1]

AMEN!!!! I have bought Mr Coffee coffee makers for 30 years. Last time, I went to several stores, hoping to find ONE that was still made in the US. NONE were, so I bought an off brand that "says" Made in the USA. But more and more, watches, tooth brushes, toothpaste, toilet paper, pet food, clothes, EVERYTHING is made somewhere else. The quality is inferior, they are tainted & are NO less expensive. I do check every label on EVERYTHING and buy ONLY American. I also write to the SELL OUTS.

[yogeedogee]

Samuel Adams is a great beer. I used to order Amstel Light, but now------Sam light.

American jobs for American Workers.

Period! ICE needs to step up the raids on Criminal Employers who hire illegal aliens and foreign workers over qualified Americans.

LOL! What an idiot!...

The problem, mister, is that the foreign workers (not talking bout the poor Mexicans working your fields!) coming to US are way more qualified than 90% of the Americans! And yes, they've been working for peanuts so that generations after generations of "true" Americans could enjoy cheap cars, cheap computers, cheap food, etc.

Just kick them out and your country will collapse in no time!

So.. think twice, dude!

They are not more qualified, but they will work cheaper. The situation is reducing the wage level in the United States for most regular workers. So to live in the same place, consume the same products, the regular worker has to pay a larger % of his or her paycheck. That was in a good economy. Now the foreign workers are holding jobs that Americans need. If the economy is strong, you can let in some foreign workers, if weak, send them back home.

The statistics in this ad are accurate. Last month, some 138,000 new temporary work visas were issued-- at a time when 11 million American workers are jobless.

The ad is right on target. Big business is destroying American jobs by bringing in cheap labor and outsourcing.
