US Congress committee approves China sanctions bill

Brother, the whole point of those college kids are getting a degree in the first place is to avoid doing menial labor like manufacturing. Who gets a degree on assembling plastic toys?

One of the very few countries I love to visit is MOTHER CHINA. The reason I said mother China is because I am a Pakistani Canadian. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST PEOPLE ON EARTH BECAUSE you helped us Pakistanis!!!!!!
:china::china:

Brother, it will take at least 5 decades to spin the wheel here in the U.S. College graduates with NONSENSE degrees are already applying everywhere regardless of a construction job or bank. You know, when the industry will come back from China, there will be a massive increase in white collar jobs too--People need 'work' here--they do not have CHOICE--People will do anything here--it is getting bad and bad--the stimulus package or garbage printing machine or debt increasing machine will STOP ONE DAY!!
We need manufacturing jobs here!

You start production in Beijing--labour (construction)--industry associated with construction--bills--taxes--employment--community welfare--you name it---so one industry can have a positive impact--

I am against the idea of globalization again the manufacturing aspect. I believe that we should bring back the industry--

Rest, my dad also visited China when I was young---LONG LIVE CHINA AND PAKISTAN!

Exactly, who gets a degree just so they can become a factory worker?

There is a reason we outsource - it is cheaper and more efficient to do so. Let's say that you enjoy making cake. Do you grow the wheat that are used to make the flour or raise the chickens that lay the eggs? I'd be very surprised if a city folk did that. Now apply that to modern businesses. There is absolutely no reason to spend extra time and effort producing parts for your machine when other countries could do the job much better at a much lower price. If we get rid of outsourcing we might as well as go back to the 16th century.

We need to get rid of outsourcing because we are suffering here. Again, the manufacturing aspect only. I agree that it is cheaper to outsource but does it worth it? Yeah, corporations make money, what about the employment?

That's right.

The fundamental economic theory is that there are "unlimited wants" and only "limited resources". So human beings must "specialize" and "trade" in order to gain the maximum benefit.

Which is why we have jobs, so people can specialise in a certain industries. Doctors specialize in medicine, and Engineers specialize in engineering. Cities and countries also specialize, for example China specializes in manufacturing, India specializes in services.

U.S. and Canadian economies are primarily service based. I see no reason why people can't get jobs that involve more thinking than putting together plastic parts.

Economic problem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I need coal--Yeah, get it from China--However, the processing of that coal etc should be done in Canada--no matter what the cost is--increase the minimum wage--step up the economic system--I need wood--Yes, get from China---However, the process should be done in Canada--Not like IKEA---ETC

Growing population, unemployed people, less opportunities etc DO have an impact on us. You know, we cannot say much about that because our generation and the previous one never saw those manufacturing jobs here in our homeland. You can go on and on and on--In my opinion, we do need manufacturing jobs.

Service, consuming and manufacturing---is the best option IMO!

Now here is my rant---:)

As a Canadian, I do want the jobs back.
As a Pakistani, eff the U.S.
On principles, we need the jobs back.

Then the prices would increase exponentially, resulting in significant levels of inefficiency. The companies would be unable to compete, and would have to shut down, meaning that all the workers would lose their jobs, rather than just a few.

China specializes in manufacturing, which is why we can do it cheaper. Countries should focus on what they are good at doing, according to the fundamental economic theory.

When we, as a race, becomes sufficiently advanced there will be no need for humans to perform those menial labors. This will free upon the vast untapped intellectual potential of every nation on Earth. What will that lead to? Sky is the limit.

Tell me what party you are voting and I'll vote for the opposition. Why get does anyone need a economics degree when you've made things so simple.

Thats why I said, increase the minimum wage and step up the economic system. Please, try to understand when I stated 'step up the economic system'--

I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean when you say "step up the economic system".

As for an increase in minimum wage... where will the money come from? Who will pay for that?

haha...

I do not vote---I am not inclined to anyone here---Yes, you can say that it isn't a responsible act. go on and on and on--

I am not apolitical but I do not like the views of current political parties in Canada. However, I volunteer for Liberals sometimes--You can vote for Conservatives than---

I have sadly seen an entire generation of IT employees getting decimated over the last decade in US.

Leta go back to ground zero---We had those manufacturing jobs in current situation---We would still survive, no?---This idea might not fit your walls because we have not tried it--We are used to live in a situation and perceive things accordingly.
