Make up your mind. You were just bitching about Cessna maximizing its
profit by outsourcing. Seems to me that profit is money into the US...


For a few. The rest--the people who made Cessna what it was by Actually

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.

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.

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.

F'ck the Chinese. 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.

Good grief.


So, you want a law to make them build it in the US, is that it?

Like the US meat packing industry, ya mean?

There ya go. Don't buy one. You got there in the end.
