This is just another example of corporate greed. When they send all the american jobs to china who do they think will be able to buy their product? If jobs are sent overseas the United States will become a third world country in a few years. We already borrow money from china and that is sad. We need a level playing field alright but it should the U.S.A. trading even up with the rest of the world.

A few years ago our politicians came up with NAFTA which sounded good at the time, however we cannot compete with the low wages foreign markets pay their workers. We are rapidly loosing our manufacturing base and our jobs. Foreign products continue to flood into the States While China and Japan are making huge profits. With these conditions we will not survive because our workers will not be employed. Wake up America

How pathetic is that. While they're at it, they might as well teach them the virtues of communism, repression & human rights violations. This way our future CEO's will know how to treat their fellow man & employees.

Partly because of historical and geographical reasons, an isolationist sentiment is so deeply ingrained in the US culture- even in some arenas of so-called "higher education"- that we can be sure it will remain a threat to the country's ability to meet changing demands of a global economy and even our domestic workplace. I taught classes of Chinese students mostly from Taiwan (not all Chinese are communist btw) many years ago and they would tell me the math being taught at the university level was what they had in grade school or high school-- so even forgetting about all this nationalist sentiment on exporting jobs abroad, there are many many jobs in the US that students from places like China and India are better prepared to handle than the average US students so perhaps even in our domestic workplace a knowledge of Chinese language and culture could be helpful. I think everybody is concerned when jobs are lost in the US but really having better education and a more education-centered culture will be part of the long term solution not part of the problem. Efforts to make language learning more available and better taught should be applauded. That aome people are waking up to the fact that cultures like China are important has been an extremely long time in coming.
