GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt, The Head Of Obama’s Jobs Council, Is Moving Jobs And Economic Infrastructure To China At A Blistering Pace

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?

Why would any one expect any less?



It doesn't surprise me at all that the minions of socialism who complained about 5.5% unemployment during the Bush years now could seem to careless now that Obama is doing nothing to promote jobs at 7.8% after four years of promising to get it under 4%. It also seems that the nationalist media has taken the spotlight off it and thrown a shroud over this issue altogether. Bring in the next shiny object: "guns" "gay marriage" "Palin" "Beyonce" etc.



The more and more you learn about them, the more and more progressives are exposed as simply useful idiots to the latest incarnation of National Socialism.

Corporations may be people, but they're not Americans. GE is a global entity with loyalty to no one, and they're going to invest where they see the greatest return.



Jeffrey Immelt may have been a poor choice to serve on the Jobs Council.

FYI GE is a company, not the government. Capitalism at its finest!
