La-Z-Boy and Whirlpool are moving jobs to new plants in Mexico, bringing job losses to hundreds of workers in Dayton and Cleveland. La-Z-Boy employees in Dayton were told today that the cutting and sewing operation is being moved to Mexico. Kathy Liebmann, La-Z-Boy spokesperson, said the Dayton facility has over 2,000 employees, but she did not have a breakdown on those in cutting and sewing. A La-Z-Boy employee said it was around 750. Ms. Liebmann said La-Z-Boy is closing a plant at Tremonton, Utah, but will keep its other plants open, including the one at Dayton. She said the 400 production jobs at the Utah plant will be spread over the other five plants. www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_125124.asp

And, we tax payers get poorer. Most of the Mexicans living here are very hard workers. But there are too many getting free medical care, food, and a place to live thanks to our tax dollars. As I get closer to retirement, I realize that their lives will still be easier than mine, because they have never worked. I have also hear that the Mexican government supplies free maps to the cities that have the best medical to give away.
