[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by goduckies because then you would have had to use Union Labor, and that would have driven costs up 300%. That is why we lose so many jobs to China, we have the people to do it, but they want a certain wage. Instead they get no work. Brad [/quote] I hear you. Wait until the day China decides no longer to provide cheap labor. Eventually they will experience the same wages our unions will require and every nation that depends on them for 10 cents on the dollar economics will suddenly not be able to afford anything. All that money spent in the transport across the pacific ocean and all the expertise in making the items discussed here and the time involoved probably will come out to the same as if American Union labor actually built these cranes on site. I dont have access to any kind of information regarding how much the price tag is for these nice units ready for work. It is my theory that the costs would not be much different if you compared and contrasted China Built versus Union USA built. I feel strongly about exporting jobs overseas. A certain amount is ok but too much will return to hurt us bad someday.
