Gary,
It's not just your imagination... The August 30th issue of the Detroit
Free Press published figures from the U. S. Census Bureau that stated
that the 'Median Household Income', from the period of 2000 to 2005, has
*DECREASED* in 47 of the 50 states. :-(
Also not meant to be a political statement, just a statement of fact.
However, please note that our political leaders have publicly stated on
numerous occasions that "Outsourcing is good for this country".
Buy American, buy TenTec!
