All of these containers are going to Wal-mart

The ship makes (3) trips a month from China to California. This is 45,000 containers a month. Does this not show you how many Americans have lost jobs due to Wal-mart demanding that companies manufacture in CHINA to sell the companys' products at Wal-mart?

Here are some facts about these ships

• These ships were commissioned by Wal-Mart to have all of the products that Wal-Mart has made in China shipped to the United States. Each ship holds an incredible 15,000 containers. It has a 207 foot deck beam.

• The full crew is only 13 people.

• The ship is longer than a U.S. Aircraft Carrier (which has a crew of 5,000).

• With it's 207 foot beam, it is too big to fit through the Panama Suez Canal, so therefore, it is strictly transpacific. It crosses the Pacific to California.

• The cruise speed of the ship 31 knots, approximately 36 miles per hour.

• It can cross the Pacfic to California in just 4 days. Much quicker than the typical container ship which travels at only (18-20 knots) taking 6-8 days.

• 91% of Walmart products are made inChina. So this monster is very competitive for Wal-mart even when carrying perishable goods.

• The ship was built in five sections. The sections were floated together and then welded.

• The command bridge is higher than a 10-story building.

• 11 cargo crane rigs that operate simultaneously can unload the entire ship in less than two hours.

• The ship is built in Denmark. The length is 1,302 ft. Width is 207 ft.

• The ship can carry a net cargo of 123,200 tons.

• The engine is a 14 cylinder in-line diesel engine with (110,000 BHP)

• The cruising speed is 31 knots

• Cargo capacity is 15,000 TEU (1 TEU = 20 cubic feet), or 300,000 cubic feet of cargo.

• The ships' first Trip was Sept. 08, 2006.

• Construction cost was $145,000,000 + U.S. Dollars, ( $145 million ) and all three ships are used exclusively by Wal-mart.

• Silicone painting applied to the ship bottom reduces water resistance and saves 317,000 gallons of diesel per year.

After the ship docks in California, the products are uploaded to Wal-mart trucks. You see these on the highway all the time. A documentary that aired in late March, 2010 on the History Channel noted that all of these containers are shipped back to China - - EMPTY Let me say that again - EMPTY. Wal-mart sends nothing back on these ships. What does that tell you about the current financial state of America? China richer - America poorer !

Do you remember years ago when Sam Walton was alive? You would walk into Wal-mart stores and you would see these HUGE signs at the front of the store saying, "We only sell what is made in the U.S.A.". What happened to those signs?

Within six month of Walton's death, his heirs started demanding all companies to move their factories to CHINA to manufacture their products... otherwise they were told... Wal-mart would no longer carry the products. What happened to the Sherman Anti-Trust laws. Were they just ignored by the Justice Department and let Wal-mart committ this unfair buisiness practice that put thousands of Americans out of work? Who was in control of both the Senate and the House at the time and who was President? I can tell you they were not Democrats!

So...let's just keep buying those imported goods from Wal-mart that are made in CHINA. This not only places the U.S. more in debt to CHINA since they are buying U.S. Treasury Notes and Bonds to finance our debt --- this is keeping America from ever being the manufacturing GIANT she once was. We need to stop purchasing products made in CHINA to bring the jobs back home to solve our own country's problems. We need to stop making the CHINESE richer and Americans poorer!

This has been the major cause of America losing over ten million jobs over the last ten years and the high unemployment, maybe even your job..stop and think about it the next time you purchase anything made in CHINA and especially at Wal-mart. If you really want to help America and help your fellow American to eventually be employed again, show Wal-mart they can't do this and stop buying the crap made in CHINA!

Please send an email to your friends about this column and to STOP buying products made in CHINA.

Improve your health with these amazing water wands ! The water wand introduces passive natural energy waves into clean drinking water, fruit, vegetable and vitamin drinks. This process causes water molecules to shed excess minerals and other substances, which break down into finer more usable nutrients. Since the water molecule becomes lighter, you can drink more liquids. This process balances pH, transports nutrients, and absorbs more waste in the body at a faster rate. Drinking more water and fluids helps increase your rate of hydration, assimilation of nutrients and elimination (detoxification). This subtle energy is discernable and gives a feeling of well-being.
