These were all 18.00 to 20.00 and hour jobs.

Thanks Bush...I'm sure those big tax cuts will help them all relocate to Mexico. This is so sad. Ohio quickly losing more
and more ground. I hate all Republicans right now.

1. That will devastate Garrettsville

We have a small facility out there and when I have made visits, the community is a very small rurual community that has come to rely on the business that have operations there.
I know a several people who will be hurt by this one.
Damn

2. Who does this guy think he's kidding?

"Mr. Christman said the consolidation is an attempt to make Amweld’s manufacturing operations more efficient."

We all know what that means -- he can now pay his employees a dollar an hour without benefits. "Efficient" my ass.

3. They are making a LEAN operation (Toyota operation mgmt theory)

LEAN Less Employees Are Needed

7. Now he can give himself

a big fat raise.

4. Ohio, the new Michigan.

Not only that, but Ford is going to be phasing out operations at it's Brookpark plant, and GM is going to cut jobs at it's Cleveland plant as well.

When I got out of the service, Ohio was a manufacturing powerhouse. Now everything has disappeared. When I moved to Florida, it took me 4 years to sell my home there.

8. Ohio residents

are all going to take huge losses on their homes here. Amazing
I can remember my father being able to quit any factory job and have another one in two days.

5. "Ark II is owned by private investment funds managed by Patriarch Partners LLC of New York"

The investing class is killing our nation.

6. They are always out for finding ways to make a quick buck.

This private equity buyout thing is just the latest scheme being used to rape what's left of american industry.

10. What has our preacher gov, Stricknine, done since winning in Nov. 2006?

I just read that he has been making deals with the GOP in the state legislature. I don't know what he's dealing but it sure isn't helping the average JOE. Prices are so high here we can't afford to live on our retirement pensions. He's giving Homestead Exemptions to everyone since taking office - helping the rich who don't need it - like Bush's tax cuts. He has removed income qualifications. Ohio is loosing jobs at an accelerated rate. Homes are for sale everywhere, many standing empty even in the former richest suburb in the US, Shaker Heights. He has failed to do anything about our electric costs going even higher because what controls there were are expiring.

Stricknine is Pelosi in a suit.

11. Good job Ohio! Perhaps if you hadn't assisted in Bush's

election by allowing mass voter fraud to occur in your State, things would have been much better for us all.
