[QUOTE=mikefranktroymi;8663642]I hate to be the nay-sayer in the discussion, but we the consumers are to blame for Cannondale moving off-shore. We demand more and more for less and less. QUOTE]

You are right, its always economics that drives things; supply and demand eventually prevails. I myself work for a corporation that continues to move manufacturing overseas to remain competitive. Unfortunately while people complain about outsourcing they still go to Wal-Mart and buy the cheapest stuff they can find, this by the way will also be the undoing of the current green movement, when push comes to shove, people will buy the cheapest form of energy regardless of its environmental impact.
