OUTSOURSING OF JOBS - to the US!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7287640.stm

BMW is going to fire 8,100 people in Germany. Initially hire 500 in SC and then expand with more factories in the future... All this because it is cheaper to pay people in Dollars than in Euros. The Euro is at an all time high (again) against the weakest dollar seen in over 28 years... Thanks Bushie!

Way to get jobs to come here - make the economy so bad it's cheaper to send jobs here than keep them at home or send them to "3rd world countries"...
