 &lt;strong&gt;Our little family manufacturing facility complies with OSHA, EPA, and federal wage and discrimination laws. We pay to send our workers to trade schools and pay them an above average wage. We provide health, dental, and life insurance and have a 401K retirement plan that we provide matching dollars. We have quality standard ISO 9002 is place. Having all of that, we are no longer price competitive with their products that went to Mexico, India, etc. Those countries to not have to comply.<br />
The giant sucking sound of American manufacturing lost jobs is getting louder every day. <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/angry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':angry:' />  <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/angry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':angry:' /> &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;]
