TOTAL 2002 $6.1 Billion All of these companies were laying off American citizens in the aftermath of 9/11 and the stock market crash of 2001. Boeing had just layed off 34,000. General Electric CEO Jack Welch boasted of its administrative prowess in market share and profits after laying off 100,000 Americans. Siemens is a German company and we are loaning them money. Caterpillar busy replacing citizens with H-1B visa guest workers. Meanwhile, the Rust Belt continues to bleed industries in the name of NAFTA and “Free Trade”. Of course, the oil companies need money. Hard to compete with Uncle Sam paying the bills. Level Playing Field MY ASS!
