Stop the cotton gin!

Counter Spin has this great rant about losing jobs in Michigan. It sounds like it's nearly akin to a holocaust. I responded in kind:

Stop the cotton-gin now! Stop electrical innovation! We must stop the bleeding everywhere. Before you know it a computer will be in every home causing huge disuption and putting millions of decent room-sized computers out of work! Think about it... if we continue down this path, computers will be putting cars together not people! Think about the terrible above-average wages that those poor saps in Mexico will be earning! It's outrageous that big companies should be looking to make a profit... I mean who do they think they're working for, the stockholders!

Look, let's be honest. The company outsources it's product production to Mexico saving millions of dollars... and putting those savings right back into making new and higher paying jobs! That is un-American to say the least!
