Yes. It was on the network news last night. GE sold its plant in Mount Vernon, Indiana to an Arabian company. They showed the new sign, in Arabic. Apparently, not much else has changed (yet). Workers still have their jobs and things are 'business as usual'. I doubt that it will last.
The news report stated that over 25% of American factory buy-outs are now being purchased by foreign corporations. I find it curious that foreign companies are buying up American firms that have shipped American jobs to foreign countries!!
I live in New Haven, Indiana; wonder if the Arabs will try to buy one of our factories?? -RKO- 10/11/07
