Electrolux closing 2 Iowa plants, 850 jobs lost

DES MOINES, Iowa - Appliance maker Electrolux announced Friday that it would close two Iowa plants by spring 2011, putting 850 people out of work as operations are moved to Mexico.

[boycott]

And losing the jobs to Mexico.
Boycott Electolux.

[Bluntly Spoken]

When is this country going to make a law outlawing "outsourcing" to foreign countries?

That to me is one of the big reasons the economy is as it is, not the only reason but for sure the main reason so many people don't have jobs now.

Do we blame the unions for the ever increasing demands for higher pay which companies could no longer afford to pay and still stay in business, do we just say that they are all greedy for the last penny?

We all know the quality is poorer when made in China, Mexico, India and other countries that pay pennies a day compared to many dollars an hour plus all the benefits?

Soon, very soon you won't find anything 100% made in America, simply assembled in the USA with imported products.

Heck even a lot of the food you buy in the market is imported now and that includes the meat.

We need to outlaw outsourcing.

Contact your local, state and fed reps and the President and demand this be stopped.

Or soon you won't have a job either.
