If they don't make the high volume line here, they won't make any here.
There are a lot of people (and growing) that can't afford $179. A guy with a wife and kids, mortgage, car payments and debts, that suddenly loses his $15/hr job and has to take an $8/hr job will never recover. The thing that made America great was the middle class. They spread the wealth around and kept the service industry and retail suppliers alive. One person with a million doesn't spread it aroud like 10 people with $100k do.
There is no guaranty the guy with the million is going to invest in growth either, so save your breath,...er, ink....er, electrons. :p
