So what of proportion? As I said many posts ago, just because most got some sort of refund doesn't mean the money was fairly divided.

It sure sucks if your job went overseas but there are industries that are hiring. That's the nature of the economy. I was writing about declining industries a decade ago and the need for employees (and companies that support the migrating industries) to focus on the industries which are growing in the US. There is nothing different about the current situation versus ten years ago when industries like clothing manufacturers were moving overseas.

Sure, we can all work in the service industry! That'll adequately replace that well paid factory job.
