My first reaction to your post was: bullsh*t. However, Google has proved you entirely correct. Apparently, these folks at the "Chamber of Commerce" are way more concerned with our "trading partner's" P&L than the welfare of both the American economy and the unemployed American wage earners and their families. http://www.uschamber.com/press/relea...provisions.htm http://www.uschamber.com/issues/lett...uyamerican.htm I am appalled. Big business is not a friend of working families. The US Chamber of Commerce is not "Big business". They are trivial. |
