How the U.S. Lost Out
on iPhone Work

By CHARLES DUHIGG and KEITH BRADSHER

Published: January 21, 2012

When Barack Obama joined Silicon Valley’s top luminaries for dinner in California last February, each guest was asked to come with a question for the president.

But as Steven P. Jobs of Apple spoke, President Obama interrupted with an inquiry of his own: what would it take to make iPhones in the United States?

Not long ago, Apple boasted that its products were made in America. Today, few are. Almost all of the 70 million iPhones, 30 million iPads and 59 million other products Apple sold last year were manufactured overseas.

Why can’t that work come home? Mr. Obama asked.

Mr. Jobs’s reply was unambiguous. “Those jobs aren’t coming back,” he said, according to another dinner guest.

The president’s question touched upon a central conviction at Apple. It isn’t just that workers are cheaper abroad. Rather, Apple’s executives believe the vast scale of overseas factories as well as the flexibility, diligence and industrial skills of foreign workers have so outpaced their American counterparts that “Made in the U.S.A.” is no longer a viable option for most Apple products.

Apple has become one of the best-known, most admired and most imitated companies on earth, in part through an unrelenting mastery of global operations. Last year, it earned over $400,000 in profit per employee, more than Goldman Sachs, Exxon Mobil or Google.

However, what has vexed Mr. Obama as well as economists and policy makers is that Apple — and many of its high-technology peers — are not nearly as avid in creating American jobs as other famous companies were in their heydays.

Apple employs 43,000 people in the United States and 20,000 overseas, a small fraction of the over 400,000 American workers at General Motors in the 1950s, or the hundreds of thousands at General Electric in the 1980s. Many more people work for Apple’s contractors: an additional 700,000 people engineer, build and assemble iPads, iPhones and Apple’s other products. But almost none of them work in the United States. Instead, they work for foreign companies in Asia, Europe and elsewhere, at factories that almost all electronics designers rely upon to build their wares.

“Apple’s an example of why it’s so hard to create middle-class jobs in the U.S. now,” said Jared Bernstein, who until last year was an economic adviser to the White House.

“If it’s the pinnacle of capitalism, we should be worried.” ...Read More This is a must read.

High Definition Televisions:

Now Made in America
TV owners can soon see the words "Made in America" on their television sets once again as Element Electronics has announced the grand opening and initial production of its new flat screen TV factory in Detroit, Michigan. With production scheduled to begin in March 2012, Element Electronics will be the only TV company assembling TV's in the United States.

Element Electronics made the decision to manufacture products in America to shorten its supply chain and related lead times, to be more responsive to American consumers, and reduce waste. The company also believes that a U.S.-based assembly plant will increase the out-of-the-box quality of its televisions.
"This was also an emotional decision for the company, maybe even a patriotic choice," explains Mike O'Shaughnessy, President of Element Electronics. "Element Electronics is an American company. Personally, I grew up in a small, blue-collar Ohio town. Our business is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We are rooted in the Midwest. We have watched for years as jobs have left America for other countries. We have wanted to and planned for producing TV's here, at home. Element Electronics wants to pioneer a resurgence of creating quality manufacturing jobs in the USA."

Element Electronics believes global economic trends will make American production more economically viable over time and the company is scheduled to continue increasing production over the next few years. This will lead to increased job creation within Element Electronic factories and their suppliers.
In the short term, the company says that the plant will provide jobs for about 100 people but already has plans for expansion and additional hires down the road.

The HDTVs that Element Electronics will produce at the Michigan plant will be sold for "essentially the same prices" as those made in China.

How can the U.S. design community support and encourage government and corporate efforts?

In short, designers can encourage domestic preferences for U.S.-made goods and services, lead a renewed focus on intellectual property creation, boost the national psyche and attitude, and provide vision and branding support to national policy efforts, among other things.

Architects and interior designers have the ability to influence modern infrastructure building (LEED) dramatically. Designers can also support continued patent strength, as well as accelerate ID patent and trademark creation through better professional collaboration with government agencies and business incubators, focused industry contests and competitions, and better academic preparation of technical and humanist design skills.

Those who know me know I’ve long been a student of psychology and consumer behavior, which have helped inform our research and design process at RKS. In getting back to the future, national psychology can’t be ignored. Rather, it should be harnessed, and the design community can help here, too.

People’s attitudes change when they’re on a mission. Huge, big-idea projects and national investments are a part of a mission that builds community and results. We should also recognize that the United States has not lost its edge. But it very well could. As a motivator, the fear of competition is a blessing to the U.S. It could be harnessed to fuel this country, as well as foreign competition, toward better solutions and collaboration.

A great friend and adviser would often remind me that a rising tide lifts all the boats. Creation lies at the very heart of humanity. So does the need to compete and increase the quality of our lives in ways that feed us spiritually and physically. Harnessing that connection will be key to understanding and embracing the competitive landscape with renewed enthusiasm and dedication. ...Read More

ROCHESTER MANUFACTURER TO EXPAND, ADDING NEW JOBS AND INVESTING IN AGING INFRASTRUCTURE
Germanow-Simon Companies will retain 77 jobs and add 25 new employees, contributing to community revival in Monroe County

Empire State Development (ESD) today announced that Germanow-Simon Companies, an umbrella for two manufacturing operations—Tel-Tru Mfg. Co. and G-S PLASTIC OPTICS—that have existed in the heart of the inner city of Rochester since 1916, will expand in Monroe County. The growing business’s $3.23 million project will include renovations in three buildings in which Germanow-Simon Companies operates, two of which are more than 100 years old. The project will create 25 new jobs while retaining 77 current employees, and is made possible through tax credits from ESD. This support demonstrates New York State’s continuing efforts to revitalize Rochester and other local communities statewide through economic development.

The project encompasses doubling the space dedicated to precision optics plastic injection molding and metrology; completion of the final phases of operating, monitoring and maintenance of two Brownfield clean up programs; and the purchase of new manufacturing equipment.

“Keeping and growing Germanow-Simon’s presence in Rochester will create jobs and stimulate economic opportunity for the local community,” said ESD President, CEO & Commissioner Kenneth Adams. “This is a company that understands and appreciates both the quality of life and workforce in New York State and will continue to manufacture its products in the same place it’s called home for nearly 100 years.” ...Read More

US firm reverses 1-way flow of shoes from Asia
By DINESH RAMDE, Associated Press – 5 hours ago
PORT WASHINGTON, Wisconsin (AP) —

Most shoes bought in the U.S. were likely made in China. Now an American shoemaker wants to put the shoe on the other foot, by persuading the Chinese to wear shoes made in the U.S.A.

The Allen Edmonds Shoe Corp., whose high-end shoes have been worn by U.S. presidents for generations, is preparing to open stores in China while keeping the manufacturing work at home...Read more.

Why Organic?

Why should you buy organic vs. conventional cotton?

There are so many reasons that you probably never knew, we’d like to let you in on some real facts and give you some insight into the organic industry and why it’s the natural choice for you and your baby.

Organic Cotton is the cloth of the future! Organic cotton is not only better for our bodies but better for our environment. It makes a world of difference in the health and comfort of our babies, especially those with allergies, asthma, or multiple chemical sensitivities. Your baby can enjoy the purest softness, comfort and strength of cotton while diminishing the harm to our environment because what is toxic to you, is 15 times more toxic to a baby.

The amount of pesticides used in the U.S. to grow conventional cotton is an obscene amount; one third of a pound of chemicals is used to grow enough cotton for one t-shirt. Not only do these synthetic pesticides pollute our air, water and soil, but they jeopardize our future. The conventional cotton farming takes an astonishing amount of the responsibility for contaminating our planet by using a full quarter of the pesticides worldwide. People are consuming foods that contain cottonseed oil which is extracted from the seeds of a cotton plant that has been sprayed with some of the most toxic pesticides. Twenty thousand deaths can be accredited to poisoning by farming pesticides; three million people suffer from chronic health problems reported by The World Health Organization. We know it’s alarming!

There are many harmful chemicals that people do not know about. Twelve of these chemicals are known as persistent organic pollutants or POPs, they are the most hazardous of all man-made products or wastes that cause deaths, birth defects and diseases among humans and animals. They are so dangerous that 120 nations agreed at a United Nations Environment Programme conference to outlaw them. Of the 151 signatories to the convention 98 states have ratified it; sadly the United States and Russia have not yet done so. There are three of those chemicals used in cotton manufacturing.

The biggest problem starts right in the cotton fields. The pesticides and chemicals used to spray conventional cotton crops creep into the air and soil, the ground water eventually then spreads to farms creating long-standing health threats to farmers, laborers and the community.

Many people believe that we should not ingest pesticides into our bodies, but haven’t figured out that we shouldn’t put them on our bodies either. What many people don’t know about conventional cotton is that besides being grown with tons of chemicals that it is then subjected to abundant chemical baths and treatments when the fabric is loomed and prepared for cutting. Furthermore, cotton is usually dyed and these dyes can contain heavy metals.

By choosing to wear and buy organic cotton baby clothing we are spreading the word thru our family and to our friends and helping to raise global knowledge about the benefits of choosing to go organic. Let’s take back what is rightfully ours and do our small part to save our planet.

When searchin for organic or healthier ways of living look for words like: eco friendly, green, eco conscious, environmentally friendly, carbon footprint, sustainable living, organic and many more are popping up.

TESTIMONIAL...

"Thank you for setting this website up. I have referred to it on several occasions, and bought my All Clad pans as a result of your listing them. (They're the best quality pans I've ever owned.) I am sick and tired of poorly-made, imported products that are designed for obsolescence. I want quality, American-made products that last and that give jobs to American workers, and I'm willing to pay more for them if I have to! (Our "Made in China" waffle maker died after being used only a half a dozen times: I was hoping you would list one made in the USA!) Please keep your website growing: You're doing a great service not only to those of us who grew accustomed to quality American-made products growing up, but to American workers as well."
