The INVESTORS? Who actually had $$$ at risk? |

Who made Cessna what it is? The workers? The management? The INVESTORS? Who actually had $$$ at risk? When it comes to the ability of America, its economy and its people, we all have $$$ at risk. All the money in the empire couldn't have built Julius Caesar a Cessna. All the money in the American economy wouldn't have populated general aviation with the Cessnas that the factory workers didn't build for them. If the Cessna investors want to make Cessna a chinese company whose profits go to a small number of -international- shareholders (not necessarily Americans) they should just say so. But first they should tell it to the Americans who just lost their jobs to the communists so that handful of investors could make more money. -c |

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. " http://wichita.bizjournals.com/wichi...html?hbx=e_abd 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. -c |

So don't buy one. Easy, see? In what way is Americans not buying things good for the US economy? It would be better all around if I bought a Cessna that was built in Wichita instead of not buying one that was made in China. Meanwhile, they're reporting record profits for domestic production...not during production in China, but during the last two years. With a crisis like that it's no wonder they're moving to a communist state with shoddy quality control, unethical business practices, massive human rights violations and near-slave labor. Once those folks in Kansas are laid off, none of them will be buying Cessnas either. Not exactly Mr. Ford's business model. And you know the Chinese workers going to buy them either. 'Course, the French might, what with the value of the Euro over the dollar. It'll be interesting to hear from them about how the Skycatcher handles, because I'll probably never fly one. -c |

I don't care if people call it xenophobic. They're environment-trashing, human-rights-violating, child-abandoning, dissident-imprisoning communists who sell weapons to our enemies and block their population from accessing the truth about the world and their government. Sound like ideal allies and trading partners then - certainly we have or have had plenty of other allies guilty of all the above. Xenophobic? What are the chances of the Dalai Lama dropping in to watch the Olympics without disappearing? It's not phobic to say that China is our ideological enemy. But I -could- be phobic, because anybody who has nuclear weapons pointed at my home or tries to steal our military technology is my enemy. Thank you for demonstrating my point. You have no point. Gatt is 100% correct. Placating the Chinese with trade won't last. Eventually, they will exercise their military. I am expecting them to invade Siberia in an effort to expand their territory and gain access to more natural resources. How do you say "Liebensraum" in Chinese? Well, you say it as Lebensraum in German, for starters. Bertie- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Thanks for the spelling check... |

It would be better all around if I bought a Cessna that was built in Wichita instead of not buying one that was made in China. Good grief. So, you want a law to make them build it in the US, is that it? Meanwhile, they're reporting record profits for domestic production...not during production in China, but during the last two years.

Like the US meat packing industry, ya mean? Once those folks in Kansas are laid off, none of them will be buying Cessnas either. Not exactly Mr. Ford's business model.
