GE is Moving from Wisconsin .

I think this may have been out for some time, but I think it is worth repeating ............



Keep your eye  on  Waukesha , Wisconsin ......Their  biggest employer just moved out. General Electric is  planning to move its 115-year-old X-ray division from  Waukesha, Wisconsin to Beijing . In addition to moving the  headquarters, the company will invest $2 billion in China  and train more than 65 engineers and create six research  centers.
 
This is the same  GE that made $5.1 billion in the United States  last year, but paid no  taxes - the same company that employs more  people overseas than it  does in the United States .
 
So let me get this  straight. President Obama appointed GE  Chairman Jeff Immelt to  head his commission on job creation (job czar). Immelt is supposed to  help create jobs. I guess the President forgot to tell him in which  country he was supposed to be creating those jobs. Thanks Jeff,  you're a "real" American....give Barrack our Best! If this  doesn't show you the total lack of leadership of this President, I don't know what  does.

Please pass this information to others  and think about it  before you buy a GE product.

If you look, you can find like products made in the USA at a more competitive price.

US Olympic uniforms MADE IN CHINA

The US-China Olympic rivalry heated up in an unfashionable way Thursday when a top US lawmaker suggested burning the US team's outfits for the opening ceremony because they were made in China.

"I'm so upset. I think the Olympic Committee should be ashamed of themselves," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told reporters when asked about an ABC News report on the origin of the Ralph Lauren-designed uniforms.

"I think they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them," an outraged Reid added.

"If they have to wear nothing but a symbol that says USA on it, painted by hand, that is what they should wear."

It was the strongest of reactions about the outfits heard on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers who often bicker over ways to keep US jobs, including in the textile industry, from heading overseas to low-wage economies like China and India.

A Congress that has rarely been so divided, was for once in this bitter election year, united in its condemnation of the Olympic Committee.

"You'd think they'd know better," Republican House Speaker John Boehner said of the fashion kerfuffle during a press briefing.
