[QUOTE="Sportello, post: 2513620, member: 55299"] High paying jobs leaving America? I think you are making things up, once again. Most manufacturing jobs are no longer high paying, semi-skilled labor. In 1970, GM was paying $23.58/hr to start and $24.75 at the top. If you made it to 1990, You were making $27.85. Today it tops out over the course of the contract at $17.79/hr and starts at $13.63, never mind the benefits. Better retire now, @newtie. Feeders will be the first to go autonomous, and your job wont be worth $13.63/hr at that point., unless you are required to push a broom around the hub at all times. [/QUOTE]
