I thought you liked capitalism, because that's the reason for all of this.  Relocating South was the mantra in the 1970s, when the Right-to-Work movement started in earnest-- anything to cut labor coasts, you know.  Offshoring was the mantra that followed, once it became obvious that labor was even cheaper elsewhere. None of this was promoted by politicians.  It was you business guys.  So blame?  Look in the mirror.

I was a kid during the 70's.
