Governor Owens Wrong Again

How the hell did this guy ever get elected? I can't believe so many people voted for him. Whatever...check this out:
Governor Bill Owens is actually quoted as saying "Outsourcing is great for the people of Colorado because the people of Colorado deserve to pay the cheapest price for a product available whether it's made here or in Kansas or Ohio".
Just how out of touch can a politician be? How can someone in any sort of power such as his possibly miss the point by that far? I'm sure for you readers out there I don't have to go into detail about how paying cheaper prices for something isn't the point. The point is that when a company it outsourced, the area where the company was operating causes job losses for the community. Some companies are small while others are large and cause thousands of job losses just for sake of saving a few bucks somewhere else.
You see, Bill, when someone doesn't have a fucking job because their company decided to move somewhere else for cheaper operating costs or to cut back on state taxes or to go somewhere else where the state imposes less restrictions on their operating structure, it doesn't matter if a product is cheaper now because that someone can't afford to buy it because they aren't making any money now. Get it?
Since you like outsourcing so much and you seem to like Kansas so much, how about we let Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas govern Colorado for you?
