Funny how business is so bad yet they just broke ground on a brand new facility in China. By the time the economy is better here, they'll be able to ship all the machines in from overseas. They've had record profits in the last year, with the help of the local suppliers. Suppliers who were here when they were just getting started and continued to support them even when they couldn't pay their bills. Now they can't wait to send all their business out for bid and give it to suppliers in the midwest and China. I hate to see anyone lose their jobs, but maybe they'll be lucky and find a new job where the employer cares about the local economy.
