	Obama's Job Czar does it again. Hell will freeze over before I will buy another GE product.	20 votes	83%

GE Moving from Wisconsin. Keep your eye on Waukesha, Wisconsin......Their biggest employer just moved out. General Electric is planning to move its 115-year-old X-ray division from Waukesha, Wis., to Beijing. In addition to moving the headquarters,the company will invest $2 billion in China and train more than 65 engineers and create six research centers.

This is the same GE that made $5.1 billion in the United States last year, but paid no taxes - the same company that employs more people overseas than it does in the United States. So let me get this straight. President Obama appointed GE Chairman Jeff Immelt to head his commission on job creation (job czar). Immelt is supposed to help create jobs. I guess the President forgot to tell him in which country he was supposed to be creating those jobs.

Thanks Jeff, you're a "real" American....give Barrack our Best! If this doesn't show you the total lack of leadership of this President, I don't know what does. Please pass this information to others and think about it before you buy a GE product.

THEY ARE JUST FOLLOWING ALL THE OTHER COMPANIES AND UNDERMINING OUR SOCIETY AND ECONOMIC STRUCTURE. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE DOLLAR. IN RHE LONG RUN, WHAT THESE COMPANIES DON'T REALIZE IS THAT OUR ECONOMY WOULD BE MORE PROSPEROUS IF THEY STAYED HOME. INSTEAD OF MAKING OTHER COUNTRIES RICHER

I guess if you put 2 and 2 together, Immelt didn't appreciate the fact that Walker kept his position as governor in the Badger State. Wake up Wisconsin. They will try to overrun you any way they can. Blame Immelt and Obama for setting this up. They don't care about you! Vote Oblahblah out.

Another cheap move for Immelt and another step in the wrong direction for Obama and his job czar. With things like this going on how can anyone have any confidence in Obama to do anything other than destroy the American economy and the American dream.
NOBAMA in 2012!!

GE's just doing what any smart company would do when faced with an oppressive business environment. I'd move from Wisconsin, too, although probably not to China. One of the sunbelt states, perhaps.

And let's not forget that GE pays no Federal Income Tax due to all the tax loopholes. Why hasn't Obama asked for those loopholes to be closed? Oh, right --- Immelt and DONATIONS to his campaign in 2008 and (he hopes) 2012.
