While I agree with their sentiments on this, where is there outrage for what is happening to peoples lives?

Our jobs are being outsourced daily causing massive unemployment, and Congress can't keep from yawning. Then they are told that 10 to 15 uniforms, made for the Olymics once every four years, were outsourced and they want those few uniforms burned because it makes them so angry. This is what commands their attention and outrage?

Sooo, we need to term the plight of this country into a visual that even a first grader can understand, thereby insuring that our elected officials will be able to understand? Is that what we need to do? Or is Congress just a dog and pony show?

You know I am more worried about who sits in Congress and the Senate right now. So after 5 years of crap economy they now are outraged at the out sourcing to China!!!!! REALLY NOW

How about lam, like it happened 15 minutes ago. Maybe next they will get outraged enough to do something about jobs/benefits and a jobs bill. (a girl can hope).

Good to see you by the way. hoping you are well.

I found it kind of encouraging that Harry Reid was so outraged. We don't often hear our elected officials speak out like that. A few days before the 4th of July, news stories generated a lot of anger that the majority of American flags are made in China. Maybe these are the first steps in a movement to bring our jobs back.? Public awareness and outrage are great motivators for the politicians.

just shows how clueless those in top positions are, nobody noticed this while making the decision in the first place??? (to buy from china?)

Or is it more like our underwear? China is the ONLY place that makes it???
