BUSH 2004
This is funny because I bought some appple juice and honey at the store.
The Apple juice was from china. The honey was from China, India or
Mexico.
An interesting side-light on the election campaign.
Look at the label of a jar of Heinz sandwich slice pickles. Yep...."Made
inMexico" Check out some of your Heinz products.
Sen. John Kerry keeps talking about U.S. corporations leaving this
country and setting up shop in foreign countries, taking thousands of
jobs with them. He is right, because that has happened. However, he is
trying to blame it on George W. Bush.
As far as I know, Bush has not moved one factory out of this country
because he is not the owner of a single factory.
That cannot be said about Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz-Kerry.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Kerrys own 32 factories in
Europe and 18 in Asia and the Pacific. In addition, their company, the
Heinz Company, leases four factories in Europe and four in Asia. Also,
they own 27 factories in North America, some of which are in Mexico and
the Caribbean
I wonder how many hundreds of American workers lost their jobs when
these plants relocated to foreign countries. I also wonder if the
workers
inMexico and Asia are paid the same wages and benefits as workers in the
United States.
Of course they're not. However, Kerry demands that other companies that
relocate should pay the same benefits they did in the U.S. Why does he
not demand this of the Heinz Company, since he is married to the owner?
If Kerry is elected, will he and his wife close all those foreign
factories and bring all those jobs back to America? Of course they
won't. They're making millions off that cheap labor.
