So you can piss and moan and whine all you want, but it doesn't change a damn thing.
This is like saying Compaq or Gateway are "furious" with Microsoft, so fucking what? What are they going to do, boycott Windows on their PC's??? and sign their own death warrant? I think not.
And you can shove your economic studies where the sun don't shine, for every study that says one thing, we can find another group of PHD's to say the exact opposite. It all depends on which political party funds the think tank that did the study.
Good paying steel industry jobs in Cleveland and Pennsylvania, that's good economics and smart politics
