the jobs loss or not regained is not limited to just China. There is little, more like none, activity by the current administration to encourage US companies to stop farming out American jobs to China and other countries.

Jeff Immelt heads and has headed a jobs task force reporting to Obama...just check to see how much work has been shipped to China by GE.

Do a little more research and find out how much automotive work has been shipped to China, specifically by GM.

If jobs were truly a priority and not just something that is given lip service, there are very easy initiatives that could be undertaken by Obama and congress to incent keeping jobs here in the USA and in fact bringing jobs back to America.

That is not happening. Jobs is an issue that is ONLY talked about with nothing being done to make it happen. This in my opinion is working against Obama, finally. Many more people are watching every day where there are words put forth with no follow up.

Obama feels he has addressed an issue when he TALKS about it. Kinda like a cheerleader leaving the job to be done to someone else.
