Jeffrey Immelt, the head of Barack Obama's highly touted "Jobs Council", is moving even more GE infrastructure to China. GE makes more medical-imaging machines than anyone else in the world, and now GE has announced that it "is moving the headquarters of its 115-year-old X-ray business to Beijing". Apparently, this is all part of a "plan to invest about $2 billion across China" over the next few years. But moving core pieces of its business overseas is nothing new for GE. Under Immelt, GE has shipped tens of thousands of good jobs out of the United States. Perhaps GE should change its slogan to "Imagination At Work (In China)". If the very people that have been entrusted with solving the unemployment crisis are shipping jobs out of the country, what hope is there that things are going to turn around any time soon?
Earlier this month, Immelt made the following statement to a jobs summit at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce....
"There's no excuse today for lack of leadership. The truth is we all need to be part of the solution."
Apparently Immelt's idea of being part of the solution is to ship as many jobs overseas as he possibly can.
A recent article on the Huffington Post documented how GE has been sending tens of thousands of good jobs out of the country....
As the administration struggles to prod businesses to create jobs at home, GE has been busy sending them abroad. Since Immelt took over in 2001, GE has shed 34,000 jobs in the U.S., according to its most recent annual filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. But it's added 25,000 jobs overseas.
At the end of 2009, GE employed 36,000 more people abroad than it did in the U.S. In 2000, it was nearly the opposite.
GE is supposed to be creating the "jobs of tomorrow", but it seems that most of the "jobs of tomorrow" will not be located inside the United States.
The last GE factory in the U.S. that made light bulbs closed last September. The transition to the new CFL light bulbs was supposed to create a whole bunch of those "green jobs" that Barack Obama keeps talking about, but as an article in the Washington Post noted, that simply is not happening....
Rather than setting off a boom in the U.S. manufacture of replacement lights, the leading replacement lights are compact fluorescents, or CFLs, which are made almost entirely overseas, mostly in China.
But GE is far from alone in shipping jobs and economic infrastructure out of the United States. For example, big automakers such as Ford are being very aggressive in China. Ford is currently "building three factories in Chongqing as part of $1.6 billion investment that also includes another plant in Nanchang".
Today, China accounts for approximately one out of every four vehicles sold worldwide. The big automakers consider the future to be in China.
Just a few decades ago, China was an economic joke and the U.S. economy was absolutely unparalleled.
But disastrous trade policies have opened up the door for a mammoth transfer of jobs, factories and wealth from the United States to China.
China has become an absolute powerhouse and America is rapidly declining.
Beautiful new infrastructure is going up all over China even as U.S. infrastructure rots and decays right in front of our eyes.
You can see some amazing pictures of the stunning economic development that has been going on in China here, here, here and here.
America is being deindustrialized at lightning speed and very few of our politicians seem to care.
Back in 1979, there were 19.5 million manufacturing jobs in the United States.
Today, there are 11.6 million.
That represents a decline of 40 percent during a time period when our overall population experienced tremendous growth.
We used to have the greatest manufacturing cities on the entire globe. The rest of the world was in awe of us.
Today, most of those formerly great manufacturing cities are decaying, rotting hellholes.
The following is what one reporter from the UK saw during his visit to Detroit....
As you pass the city limits a blanket of gloom, neglect and cheapness descends. The buildings are shabbier, the paint is faded. The businesses, where they exist, are thrift shops and pawn shops or wretched groceries where the goods are old and tired. Finding somewhere to have breakfast, normally easy in any American city, involves a long hunt. ‘God bless Detroit’, says one billboard, just beside another offering the alternative solution: liquor.
You can see some really shocking images of the decline of Detroit right here.
Our politicians insisted that globalism would not result in a "giant sucking sound" as millions of jobs left America.
But that is exactly what has happened.
Sadly, most American families still don't understand what has happened. Most of them are still waiting for things to get back to "normal".
Millions of unemployed Americans are dealing with incredible amounts of stress right now as they wait for jobs to start opening up again. But the jobs that have been shipped overseas are not coming back. In a globalized economy, it doesn't make sense to hire American workers when you can legally pay workers slave labor wages on the other side of the globe.
Millions of good middle class jobs have been replaced by low paying service jobs. Today there are huge numbers of Americans that are cutting hair or flipping burgers because that is all they can get right now.
Many others are only able to survive because of the safety net. One reader named David recently left a comment in which he shared his story. David did everything that the system asked him to do, but the promised rewards never materialized. Now David is broke, unemployed and he feels deeply frustrated....
A year ago I had a job, we were struggling, but bills were getting paid, and somehow we were getting by. Then I made the mistake of getting sick, one day before my company insurance kicked in. An auto-immune illness almost killed me, if it weren’t for the amazing efforts of my physicians and an emergency spleenectomy, I would not be here.
My wife would have been a single mother,raising two young sons, one of which is autistic. Instead, I pulled through. The disease damaged my liver, leaving me with a chronic condition, and even after a year, it is hard to get up and go some days. My “employer” dumped me as soon as I left the hospital, and I haven’t worked since. It isn’t for lack of looking. There just isn’t anything.
Oh, I get my government cheese money. Here I am college educated, unable to find something that can pay the bills better than the money that we get from the government. It sickens me to be this dependent on the system like this. But the system de-incentivizes work, and makes living on the dole make a perverse economic sense.
I used to have dreams, but I have given up on them. My wife and I have no savings, we have no life raft and if it weren’t for the generosity of her parents and mine, things would have ground to a halt a long time ago.
I believed every thing adults told me. Work hard, I did. Get an education, I did. Find a nice girl and settle down, I did. Two cars, a dog, a cat and couple of kids, a nice townhouse…the american dream. Yep.
I love my country. My heart is broken, broken because I have been betrayed. I did what you asked, I played by the rules. I did what you said to do; I submitted, I conformed, I stopped dreaming. Now what?
I am willing to pay for my faults and transgressions; my failures are my own, I get that. My children should not have to suffer for my failures, they did not do anything wrong. My youngest boy is autistic, we hope he will be able to integrate into society, but the fact is we may have to take care of him for the rest of his life. How do I do this with nothing, and no opportunity in the foreseeable future?
Depression, stress…yep, I’ve got all that. I used to be hopeful and optimistic about the future. Now all I am is afraid.
As the United States continues to bleed good jobs, stories like the one you just read are going to become much more common.
So what are our politicians doing about all of this?
They tell us that we need even more "free trade"!
Barack Obama says that we need more free trade.
The Republicans say that we need more free trade.
In Washington D.C. our politicians do not agree on much, but one thing they do agree on is that we need to keep shipping jobs out of the country.
Until the American people wake up and start demanding an end to the globalization of the U.S. economy, the job losses are just going to continue to get worse.
The United States has lost a staggering 32 percent of its manufacturing jobs since the year 2000. If this trend continues, millions more Americans will soon be surviving on food stamps or living in tent cities.
The American people are deeply concerned about the economy, but they still have not connected the dots on these issues. The mainstream media and most of our politicians keep telling them that the globalization of the economy is a wonderful thing.
It is so sad that people just do not understand what is going on right in front of their eyes.
Whether you are a conservative or a liberal or a libertarian, you should be against the deindustrialization of America.
Allowing our industrial base to be raped is not a good thing.
Allowing big corporations and foreign governments to pay slave labor wages to workers on the other side of the globe making things that will be sold inside the United States is not a good thing.
Allowing the destruction of our industrial capacity to threaten our national security is not a good thing.
Allowing millions of precious jobs to leave the country is not a good thing.
The biggest corporations are making some extra profits by exploiting cheap labor on the other side of the globe. Corporate executives love to shower themselves with larger and larger bonuses.
But our current trade policies are not working for American workers.
We need "fair trade", not "free trade".
The United States is being taken advantage of, and the Democrats and the Republicans are both laying down like doormats and letting it happen.
If you want to know where all the good jobs went, it is not a big mystery.
They have been shipped out of the country and they are not coming back.
Unless fundamental changes are made, things are going to get worse and worse and worse for American workers.
So what is going to happen next?
It is up to you America.
“Don’t tax the Job creators?” Where are the jobs?
OK. Where are the taxes??????
Chinese industrialists? You mean Chinese GOVERNMENT!!!!! There, you don’t just get a visa and go. You have to have permission. And money. Chinese students here are 100% government funded. Spies always are, and what else are technology stealers but spies?
YOU, and me, and EVERY AMERICAN, needs to understand who the enemy is – then, boycott them.
Any REAL changes, will absolutely have to address BOYCOTT. There is no
way around it. Globalist corporations (Wall St. Banks, primarily) have taken over our
government. The two articles below literally NAME NAMES, of corp.s to boycott. In
order for Americans to regain their Freedom, as outlined in the U.S. Constitution, and
Bill of Rights – they will have to ‘cut off’ the globalist corporations and their lackeys
in the District of Corruption.

The Real Revolution
http://landdestroyer.blogspot.com/2011/02/real-revolution.html
“Boycott the globalists, cut off their support, undermine their system, and they lose their ability to commit these atrocities. That will be a real revolution and it can start today. Not burning cities and masked rebels waving flags, but communities no longer dependent and fueling a corrupt system we all know must come to an end.”
Ben Dover, I just checked out the link you posted for Land Destroyer. Pretty impressive stuff there. If all this stuff is true, we have our work cut out for us.
Everyone else out there that agrees with the rest of us that this country is destined for collapse should visit this site and read up on these folks. I never thought a conspiracy this big could actually come about but I’m becoming a believer real fast.
The private sector is auotomating all jobs. Outsourcing and H1-B visa worker insourcing are manifestations of this automation. But the ultimate goal of the private sector is the elimination of all human labor. PERIOD. Federal governments must ask the all powerful Federal Reserve to printo money for the MIDDLE and LOWER CLASSES and then put these displaced workers to work in Franklin Roosevelt style NFRA jobs (as in the 1930′s.) If the federal governments don’t do that, then they must provide federal stipends, i.e. the “dole,” in the form of vouchers for rent, utilities, groceries, transportation, health care, education etc. The private sector HAS GIVEN UP ON WORKERS. They don’t need them any more. The only other alternative is….violence!
Criminal… just plain criminal!
It’s obvious how much loyalty the snobs who run this country have to the people that fight their wars, pay their taxes, grow the food and watch the children. Millionaires and billionaires force wars on us and maybe even look the other way as the bad guys are coming because it’s good for business. In the meantime, the tornado-ravaged states of the South are deemed not newsworthy by the Ivy League elitists, who run off to Somalia and elsewhere to cover a famine in a Muslim country that is filled with anti-American/anti-Israeli guerrillas. The priorities of the People in Power are crystal clear, to put it mildly. They pit largely white FOX News against largely Democrat and minority MSNBC to divide and conquer. In the meantime, the Israel-firsters get whatever they want, jokes about ‘white trash’ are considered cool, the richest of the rich pay less and less tax and all of the sons of the wealthy avoid the wars that daddy warbucks and his pals in Congress get rich off of. Americans are routinely accused of being lazy, when the statistics show that they are the most productive people on Earth. Americans are routinely accused of not wanting to do dirty jobs, when it is actually people like W that avoid them like the plague. Americans are put down in every imaginable way by the media, and then those same Americans are expected to climb into Chinooks flying over the mountains of Afghanistan. Maybe if there was a new unit in the Armed Forces, the Congressional Batallion, made up of the children of congressmen, the United States would all of a sudden become pacifist, and we wouldn’t be bankrupt from the wars. As for anyone who feels guilty reading this and suddenly goes to the recruiter’s office, don’t do it for me. The last thing I want is to be a soldier and be shot at and shoot people.
AMEN!
An Alternative to Capitalism (which we need here in the USA)
Several decades ago, Margaret Thatcher claimed: “There is no alternative”. She was referring to capitalism. Today, this negative attitude still persists.
I would like to offer an alternative to capitalism for the American people to consider. Please click on the following link. It will take you to an essay titled: “Home of the Brave?” which was published by the Athenaeum Library of Philosophy:

Perhaps in time the so-called dark ages will be thought of as including our own.
–Georg C. Lichtenberg
Sorry John, but this idea of yours would never work. And I say that after much forethought. People going back to ancient times have always had some form of money and here’s why. What is money except a form of “perks” as you mentioned in your moneyless way of life. So we do essentially what you are abdicating, using “perks” in the form of money to achieve what we want in life.
As for your “economic bodies, boards, or councils” they would bever work either. Who would determine who sits in those positions? How would those folks determine who gets what perks? It’s a no-win situation. Jealously would abound.
As for your grand idea about “cooperation”, that would never work either. People, by nature, are essentially lazy. Why would they do anything if they don’t have to? Oh I know, offer them perks. We do. The perks we offer them today are called “money.” Saying that people will cooperate willingly is like saying that all people are good and moral and decent. I agree that most are but many are not.
Man cannot rule himself by his own words or promises or feelings about what is right and wrong because every man has a different opinion as to what is right and what is wrong. Dare I use the biggest, and the most talked about, issue in America since the 1970′s, abortion. I say abortion is wrong. You might say it’s right. Others might say it’s wrong but acceptable or tolerable. Either way, there would never be a universal opinion.
No, man needs something or someone bigger than himself to assist him in this life. He needs rules laid down by a higher authority that he cannot dispute. He must be told what is right and what is wrong. And he must live by those universal rules if he wants to survive.
And we already have those rules. They are laid down by God Himself. Those “rules” are called the Ten Commandments. If man would simply follow those Ten Commandments as they are laid down by God, he would and could live happily ever after. Those rules or commandments are not hard to live by. They are easy to understand and make perfect sense and are the best and only way man can survive. If we all followed those commandments, life would be fine.
When Jobs are removed from our country leaving us without work, without health insurance, without life insurance, bare essentials to survive in this country, we can’t buy anything! What will happen when China has the nuts and bolts to our tractors and we can’t farm our own food supply? LOL…OH I forgot, most of our food is imported now!!! Just great! Whose great idea was this? I didn’t get a chance to vote on this…Everything should be on the ballot – no more politicians – Let the People have their voice back; I vote to put everything on the Ballot!!!
Business has always had the perogative to operate as they see fit with out regard to US laws, cconventions, contracs etc. Why should it be any different now.
Remember it was the colonial business owners that fought foreign taxes and created the first tea pary. The workers and geneal public were not involved. Although some general public are part of the current Tea Party movement, it is the money men that are bankrolling it.
After 60 + years of worker and union power the businesses are now really puttin it to the American worker.
It’s who is calling the shots as much as it is economics.
Enjoy the ride people. It is going to get real bumpy from now on.
Immelt sholud be mde to help cleand up the mess his nuclear plants made in Japan. He needs to work in the buildings with the common folks not sitting in an office building 250 miles from the danger!! Oh, and he should take Obama with him!
Geeez, read: should be made to clean up nto the jibberish I typed. Damned fingers, just washed them and can’t do a thing with them!
Do you all still think that it has anything to do with economics and greed? Might there be something that’s much deeper than all this? Do you really think that “bad” trade policy created the situation we’re in? Might everything just be going according to plan? Things are going just as they were planned 20 years ago. It will take some time, but with enough questions and looking around, you may find out the truth.
I too watched my job and career go to Beijing.
Those jobs aren’t ever coming back and Im still unemployed after more than a year.My wife is still working but when my bennies run out we will sink, she makes half of what I made.
I do know this, China didn’t do this to us, our own countrymen did this. They’ve used every means to keep thier own citizens down, dumb and out of the way while they dismantle thier own country.The amazing part is when you try to talk about it to your fellow man, they just say oh well its not personal it’s just business. That’s just the way it is. They don’t even question or care that the very place that they live is being dismantled for profit elsewhere. Empty shop space is everywhere, empty houses are everywhere and nothing is being said. it’s like a dark cover has been placed over us.
Please promote to the fellow Americans voters, that when in doubt, vote only for Joe Publics who are worth no more than 200K, and amenable to signing the pledge/questionairre highlighted issues below.
Get them to ask their Governor candidate or Congressman candidate, current Governor or current Congressman to sign with a cam taking down the signing in the presence of as many media reporters or people as possible :
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1914864390044&set=o.318515515322&type=1&theater
If they won’t sign and pledge, you need to remove them from power via vote in the next election.
(Governor as an administrator descriptor needs re-terming – who needs to be ‘Governed’ in this day and age – might as well be a Grand Vizier especially when compounded with limitless terms, worse if nepotistically handing the seat to a relative or family member as well – rename with a more power neutral term like State Administrator maybe?)
Try the comment/response below for an idea of why laws need to be set up to prevent careerist politicians and limitless terms AT ALL LEVELS.
http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=318515515322&topic=13433
Voters must espouse and promote this form of TRUE democracy (not the partial representative one that USA has now) with all kinds of term limit protections and freedom promoting pledges, the citizens would certainly consider a Joe Public above a nepotistic oligarch or plutocrat, Joe Public being the best ‘most in touch with harsh reality’ candidate for president governor, senator, mayor and councillor.
The corrupt ties between the Obama regime and GE’s Jeff Immelt bring to mind the original definition of fascism, the one put forth buy Mussolini, namely the fusion of the corporation and the state. Il Duce later said he regretted not calling fascism “corporatism” instead, but the original word stuck. If Obama’s corrupt and criminal tenure in the White House does not qualify as fascism, I’d like to know what does?
Some may scoff that Obama is closer to a neo-Marxist or neo-Leninist, but these do not preclude fascism, because communism and fascism are in fact ideological neighbors.
Joe, re: “I do know this, China didn’t do this to us, our own countrymen did this.” With all due respect, sir, regarding the Chinese, “The hell they didn’t!” Beijing has been waging economic warfare against us for decades. Do not forget that the regime in China is hard-core communist; the same wonderful folks who exterminated 70 million of their own people a half century ago or so in Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Space does not permit a detailed recitation of the crimes of the communist mandarins in Beijing, but let me offer one example. The Chinese have manipulated their currency, the yuan, so that it does not ‘float” against international monetary markets (including the dollar), with the effect of making Chinese exports more competitively priced against American goods. It also makes U.S. imports more expensive in the PRC. A second example is the massive amount of piracy and economic theft of U.S. manufacturing technology, goods and services that takes place with the tacit approval of Beijing. Yes, we Americans have done much to hurt ourselves, but to absolve the Chinese is not only naive, but incorrect. A very good day to you…

I’m posting my blog video here because I need to reach out to the real people who are effected by the Global Economic Crisis. Please pass this video on.
i have a real good idea, let’s ship all the politicians jobs overseas for the next 8 years starting with good ole’ immelt & obama & then see if they still agree that “free trade” is a good thing. if so, they are not welcome, but required to stay there!! do i hear a resounding……hooray to that folks!!
As I type on my assembled in China MacBook, and answer my made in china Blackberry, can I ask, how I \ We are not to “BLAME”? Let’s choose the Competition.. the not made in China products…too hard..we don’t have the backbone to do it. The economy is Global… soon we will be poor enough for the tables to turn…and the world will turn to America for cheap goods made by cheap labor. It’s what kept us in business since the Industrial Revolution, and our inability to compete for our own customers is the reason we have lost our own customers to China. During our consumption, we consumed our selves. Of course, paying for Off Shore Wars is yet another Tale of Grand American Consumption that everyone seems to forget. I am intrigued how no one has pointed the finger at the biggest culprit: Themselves.
And yet still no big outcry from the Liberal media, or even a single so called representative.
*WONDERFUL Post.thanks for share..more wait .. …
This is for Mr. Jeff Immelt.
I spent four years in the U.S. Navy, spent two tours in Vietnam and I am extremly upset with your hipocritical behayvor. I understand that you are responsible to (us) as stock holders but making that choice to share intel and farm out thousands of jobs to the Chineese, are you STUPID. You need to stand-up and act as a American first and think of $$$$$ second. I lost two friends in Vietnam just so you can make this STUPID choice and hurt Americans. I hope you read this and make a good choice for American people.

U.S. Solyndra Solar Panel Corp. has closed .. Communist Chinese Government Subsidies targeted to defeat any attempts by any nation to compete with Chinese Product Manufacturing:
Thank Congress NAFTA_WTO Legislation which Insures failure of any large scale product initiative:
Fact:
The NAFTA_WTO Legislation changes to our Laws took away the In Effect since America was Founded Laws which prevented Corporate Abandonment to cheap labor Nations –
otherwise America would have folded long ago.
Deny this and you obviously know zero of Economic Nation Building and History..
‘The Wealth Generator for Any Nation is it’s Manufacturing for Export’
With Clinton’s NAFTA_WTO this Wealth is no longer available to The United States.
National Wealth Generation was Targeted by Clinton to be Stripped from Our Nation & taken as New Steams of Profit by US Corporations via deals with Communist Red China.
Anyone seeking to do Business in Red China is required to Swear an Oath to The Red Chinese Communist Party – not the Nation – The Political Party of Red China.
There is no amount of ‘Sales Tax’ on Overseas Manufacturing conceptually to be paid by former US Corporations which replaces the enormous Economic Losses gutting our Manufacturing for Red China has wrought.
The Clinton ‘Next Phase’ has arrived:
Here you’ll see GE Corp abandonment of America:
The First U.S.Corporate to strip out an entire Division -

1 in 5 American Children are now in Poverty

Hmm… Maybe I should think about
moving there also.
There are a lot of business minded

My Jeffery Immelt *********************!!!
The whole financial system is a giant ponzi scheme designed to
strip us from our wealth. Did you know that the U.S Federal
reserve is a private institution?They have never been audited and are not bound by the
Constitution. Basically the Federal Reserve is free to print money
and then lend it to the country and charge an interest. This is the
definition of a ponzi scheme and totally unconstitutional.

When the population is growing by natural birth, or immigration the requirement for the nation to be innovative is overpowering. To be innovative is much subject to increase development of the people. From the fact that the currency of every nation is inflating, means that our development is declining. Hence, the future to create jobs will be very bleak. For your information Google “The World Monetary Order”.
I think I am going to be sick. I had just written a letter to the President last month not knowing this, but I questioned his choice of head of the jobs market Jeffrey Immelt, and then I learn he is transferring jobs to China? well, that explains why when I tried applying for a job at GE their website continuously had technical issues for the whole month of August (the testing portion) and they will not accept your application without it. Did you also know Jeffrey Immelt is also accused of buying his position in the whitehouse? allegedly for 38 million, though I do not know how reliable the source actually is. I would just have to say the accusations are probable from the (alleged) 3rd most popular CEO.
O ur President’s “job czar” Immelt, in addition to transferring jobs to China as discussed in this marvelous but depressing article, is expanding enormously and creating thousands of jobs… in the US? Non! In India!
According to a brief column published in the WSJ Tuesday September 27, 2011 under the section ‘Corporate Watch’
B3, under column “General Electric CEO Immelt Doesn’t See a Double-Dip Recession”
Mr. Immelt is quoted as stating U.S. GE will invest more than $200 million building a multibusiness, multitechnology facility in India and also hire 6,000 workers in the next two to three years to support its expansion in that country.
They Lie, and Lie, and Lie…Another Reason Obama and the Whole Lot of Them Must Go!
THE ANSWER Do not vote any republican or democrat back into office (especially Congress) at any level of government. Vote Independents Only and have the Independents sign a pledge to ONLY SUPPORT BILLS that put money directly in the middle class workers pockets. The middle class being families that make less than $200,000. a year in income. For those making less than $40,000. they should pay NO TAXES, payroll, income or state taxes. If the Tea Party taught us anything they showed us how to control the agenda in congress. All you need is 100 seats in each house to change the agenda and this should be the focus of all concerned. You vote your choice for President but as you can see if you control Congress you control the Presidency.
Use the laws that are in place, charge companies to bring in good and services for sale in this country. Charge enough that it would be eat up the additional profit they are making manufacturing outside this country.
If companies could make more here they would move back.
