Presedintele Uniunii Teamsters sustine ca Apple este "nepatriotica"

Presedintele International Brotherhood of Teamsters Union, Jim Hoffa, sustine ca Apple este o companie nepatriotica pentru ca a ales sa faca outsourcing in afara Statelor Unite. Iata un extras al interviului de mai sus:

Are you questioning the patriotism of Apple for sitting on money rather than hiring -

Yes, I am.

Are you?

Yes, I am. Yes, I am.

What is it with a company that makes 76 - and they sell most of their products here in the United States. I mean their the biggest Apple - you've got Apple Stores everywhere else. They've been sitting on that kind of money and every time they do something they do it in China. They do it somewhere else. There's something wrong with that. Don't they have an obligation?

They will tell you that the high cost of labor, and the high cost of health care, and the high cost of environmental, drove them out of the country.

I don't believe that at all. We have companies here that make a lot of money, like U.P.S. We have a number of great companies here that are functioning here that are union, Sikorsky, and they are doing very very well. You can do it here but the answer is you have to have the incentive. So many companies like Mr. Coffee and all these other companies that have closed and moved to Mexico. They're wrong. They're unpatriotic. We've got to turn this around and say, "Hey, we are an American company. We owe an obligation to America. Let's put America back to work".

Uniunea Teamsters este ca un fel de sindicat al muncitorilor din Statele Unite ale Americii, cel mai mare la ora actuala. In programul lor sunt incluse vizite dese cu presedintele SUA pentru a discuta situatia muncitorilor din tara, printre altele.
