FUNNY – Stossel says at around 3:18 an incorrect phrase, it may have been intentional: “sorry to be the garden at your skunk party”. Wouldn’t the skunk be at the garden party? LOL
@anarkoFred He’s pushing a libertarian perspective, and one that would be perfectly legitimate if presented with the proper context without making it a glib propaganda piece. His example of the company that expands by exporting good jobs is simply outrageous. He argues that lower prices make up for unemployment. He uses doctored graphs with contrived axes. He fails to account for immigration and population growth. Overall this is one of Stossel’s absolute worst segments.
@DavidUmstattd We absolutely have every right to “discriminate” against failed nation-states that destroy jobs and free enterprise by encouraging socialist wealth redistribution and overpopulation and resource depletion and whose only export is the forced labor of their impoverished victims of these failed government policies. The only alternative is to either drag us down to their level, or to waste more of our resources acting as police for the rest of the world.
He does what most journalists does, showing anecdotes and a few statistics to illustrates his points in a 5 minutes block. He also provide an explanations and arguments to his points like an editorialist does. You may not agree with his views but he is none the less doing a good job. He is hired as a journalist/editorialist, not as a statistician.
Those who say that we somehow have a greater right to “our” jobs than other people are discriminating against those other people based on their nation of choice.
well look at China they are now importing cheap labor from North Korea and Mongolia what is Dobb’s explanation. Even Mexico import Cheap labor but its from Honduras. look India , China, USA, and japan outsource call centers to the Philippines.
Moderation to you is not enough or excess to others. Whatever a company wants to do is their choice. If you don’t like what they are doing, don’t patronise that company, simple as that. I
f most people feel like you do then the company will either go bust, or it will change its course and survive. Make your own choices, don’t force others to do the same.

Protectionism = Economic tribalism

good thing mr. stossel cant properly contextualize facts and thinks that anecdotes somehow equal proofs of much grander realities
Those who say that we somehow have a greater right to “our” jobs than other people are discriminating against those other people based on their nation of choice.
good thing you use facts hhiippiittyy
John Stossel and his reports would make any straight man think twice about switching teams.
The idea is to export america instead of getting america in America.
Empire building at its worst.
Ah, stossel the meat-head. Keep it up you ignorant dick.
well look at China they are now importing cheap labor from North Korea and Mongolia what is Dobb’s explanation. Even Mexico import Cheap labor but its from Honduras. look India , China, USA, and japan outsource call centers to the Philippines.
spoken like a true libertarian…and thank you for saying that!
Aye.

That would actually be a good thing for your country as for Europe. We need production not consumption.
Soon, we’ll be making stuff for the Chinese while they consume.
i meant to say good
outsourcing is only godd when its done with moderation
wow this is great
