[ The globalist free traders told us our manufacturing and factory base
had to go out of our country and now most of it is gone. They told us that our economy would convert to a service
economy but now we have companies advertising to outsource these services and even offer great savings to insurance companies
to send all their paper work and support services to places like India. The State of New Jersey has even sent their
processing for those on welfare to India. And many of those on welfare, came from the service industry. We know
now that anything can be outsourced but, I would like to talk a bit more about what happened to our manufacturing base from
my direct experiences.]
As I previously told, I worked in four different factories
while going to college full time and perhaps learn more about the real world in the factories than I did in college.
Here is a summary of my factory and manufacturing experiences totalling about 20 years.( However computers were my main endeavor
being part of every computer generation ) :
Set up man for three assembly lines. Inventory control. Shipping. Army Transportation Officer Spot welder Punch Press Operator Assisted in worm gear production Tab card
production and tab card processing factory applications Trouble shooter supplyer to industrial accounts including industrial
computer manufacturers and I help jumped start the cat scan industry.
These are the things I encountered: The
change from Zero Defects Manufacturing to In Process Manufacturing. Zero Defects Manufacturing- In my computer sales
calls, I drove by many factories with a banner on the front of the buildings noting they were a Zero Defects Manufacturer.
The U.S. Government stressed this across the board and in their contracting process. Zero Defects Manufacturing is supposed
to produced the very best in 100 percent perfect production. For the most part, this is an impossibilty. There really
is no Zero Defects Manufacturing. However, the pursuit of this end, required heavy production engineering being involved,
pre manufacturing quality control cycles, the manufacturing cycle and then a post-manufacturing quality control checking process.
In general, this was the way manufacturing as led during World War 2 and afterwards for about thirty years. This process
required a large amount of human intervention and it created a vast middle class of production workers in the United States.
The factory foremen took the young off the streets and taught them a skill and in turn the workers made enough money to get
married, have children - many had large families, buy a home, send their children to college, stay at one company for a lifetime,
enjoy a pension and most of all support a vast entitlement process for all in the society. The system was cumberson
but it represented the most awesome industrial might the world has ever know and an economic model for all the world to duplicate.
It paid for the Marshall Plan that helped restore European and Asian economies based on duplicating the success.
However, while this was going on in our country there were forces busy replacing it. I already told you how the U.S.
Federal Government sponsored the moving of factories outside of the USA in 1956 which was the same year money products were
globalized following the Suez crisis. ( A reading of The Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins , reveals
much of the story.)
And a strange thing was happening in Japan in the process of rebuilding their economy.
Agencies from the U.S. Government and other related associates were in Japan stressing new manufacturing techniques. They
were introducing new in-processing techniques while at the same time our government at home was pushing Zero Defects Manufacturing.
In-processing manufacturing pools all resources and centers them in the manufacturing process itself. It takes out as much
pre-manufacturing an post-manufacturing cycles as possible. In-process manufacturing takes out the human worker as much as
possible. Automation played a large part of this too. However years later, human workers became less expensive than automation
in many countries.
Production workers unions were too powerful and arrogant in the past. However,
it is a fact that both union and non-union workers were better off when the unions were strong. I experienced both sides
as a factory worker myself and later as part of a management team negotiating with a union that struck our plant. During
the process, I had a burning 2x4 waved at my head on the strike line. It was sad because I was working very hard in finding
a new product line that could pay for the increase in wages. I also drove across strike line to supply a
large utility company data center with media for them to keep operating.
I also saw union workers who
delivered products to our family food store making as much as our whole family in the store and knew as just a
young boy that nothing good could possibly come from such an imbalance. The globalist free traders still blame
the private sector production worker unions for our economic woes even though they virtually have been gone for many
years. The AFL CIO is made up primarily of government workers now with public servants making twice as much as the people
they serve. And these unions have many more ways to protect their interests being so close to political community. The
private sector production workers now only total about 15 percent of the total while the public sector workers
total about 50 percent. The others are services workers primarily in retail who do not make very much money to begin
with. And the non-union workers at places like Walmart need government assistance to survive.
Almost 100 percent
of the public workers have pensions while only 15 percent of the private sector have pensions with the federal
government directly paying many of the pensions due to the original corporations going broke. Again this is an impossible
situation since the private sector workers pay the taxes for everything to work. The public sector claim they pay taxes
too but forget that the private sector workers end up paying for them too my paying taxes on the whole setup.
Is Human Nature on Trial - Is Economic
Crisis really a Human Nature Crisis-
The above is taken from the essays of Peter Maurin, the co-founder of the Catholic Workers
movement - relating to the understanding of human nature - noting the question if we need more priests or more
policemen .
Liberalism is based on Rousseau who said human nature was naturally good but society
infects it with evil. This is inborn now in our educational systems and of course it is wrong. Conservatives and business
people say Capitalism and the so call free market accomodates the flaws in human nature. Alan Greenspan in his book
the Age of Turbulence went out of his way telling about the failures of the New Harmony workers community experiment.
Both are wrong and that is the reason for religions to be more than religions but a way to provide mankind with priniciples
like Jesus said, do unto others as you would have them do to you. Even Adam Smith held labor and workers as something
sacred and the core of all societies. Human nature has correctable errors and our secular societies tells us this
is not true and business people say - human nature is a hard error that you have to adapt to. Human nature is on
trial and the economic crisis is really a human nature crisis. (See our philosophy and religion site noting this at http://www.therationale.com/human-nature-on-trial
