Email from a friend- re Jeff Immelt

[The Green Manalishi]

I'll just post the text. Don't think there are any copyright violations. Any help in refuting or contexturalizing the facts appreciated. Snopes says 'true' but this does NOT look good.

begin paste:

"GE Leaving Wisconsin for .......

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."


---Actually pre snopes they aren't getting RID of any jobs here, but still, WTF is wrong with this situation.
