et tu, Mackie? Re: say no to urban skydiving Re: AW: AuntiBehringer

So Mackie sold out, too, huh? People keep forgetting that if they lay 
everybody off, who is going to be able to buy their damned products? Also, 
I hear strange stories that even Chinese workers are getting pink slips as 
companies try to find even cheaper labor elsewhere.

considering how much Mackie stuff is made in China now i don't feel bad 
about the idea of buying Uli Behringer's stuff.

i wish there was that mackie ad which showed everyone at the factory 
standing outside waving (i remember it from a few years ago), but 
edited so the text ran "Why are these Mackie employees smiling with 
pink slips in hand? Because we fired a hundred americans and moved 
production to china to bring you LOW LOW PRICES!!!"
