For a few. The rest--the people who made Cessna what it was by Actually
Making the Cessnas--will have a hard time enjoying Cessna's "profits."


Are you kidding? Cessna is going flat out right now.


You're right.
"Cessna recorded a 2005 profit of $457 million on revenue of $3.4 billion,
compared to 2004 profit of $267 million on revenue of $2.5 billion. The
company builds business jets at its factory complex at Wichita's
Mid-Continent Airport and single-engine piston aircraft at its plant in
Independence, Kan. "

Good for them. The record profits must have been hurting them so bad, they
just had to relocate to China.

Wal-Mart's domestic factories were going flat out when they bragged to
everybody about how American they were.
