[QUOTE="MtPockets, post: 2844807, member: 39651"] I hate to say it, but public companies will always resist bringing manufacturing back. The ONLY manufacturing we have any chance if getting back is with non-Wall Street companies. The large publicly traded companies have one focus and that is to maximize profits for their shareholders. I remember reading some years ago in the New York Times about Carrier Corp (I think, anyway) who had made billions the previous year but were still shutting down their factories here and moving to Mexico. Their reason? Wall Street felt they could do better. I believe the number of employees losing their jobs was in the thousands but it was not their fault in the least. Pure Corporate greed perpetuated by the stock market. I really believe that is why "they" invented the 401k- get the average American to invest so they play along with cutting all the jobs. People are more likely to allow it if their annual check depends on it. [/QUOTE]
