Same thing everywhere you look. My company is moving a huge portion of it's production to Brazil. This is includes my dept. The first cell of equipment is going to be starting dismantling in two weeks. I'm not sure what's going to happen in the next year or so.
What the greedy multi-national corporations don't get is the more jobs they outsource to increase profit margins, the more the economy is driven down. What's going to happen when the USA will not be able to afford to provide security protection in the developing nations that they are setting up business in? My company also recently started building a factory in Mexico right where all the drug wars are taking place as we speak. Americans being killed, taken for ransom. I can only imagine it'll be a matter of time before the drug lords realize the amount of money each truck container holds before they start hijacking them, then the corporations cry for help from the US govt. Sorry. We're flat busted.
