If your friends and in-laws are still blaming Mexicans for loss of their jobs, they're in a time warp. And why did those companies move the jobs? Maybe because they could not afford to pay an uneducated laborer $135k with benefits to put lug nuts on a car on an assembly line. You're just jealous because those "uneducated laborer" types earned more per annum from salary and OT than you ever did, right, Bilious?

If your friends and in-laws are still blaming Mexicans for loss of their jobs, they're in a time warp Trump is polling at 25% There must be a lot of people in the same time warp. Oh, *now* Trump's lead in the GOP polling means something to you? Funny, it didn't seem to mean much to you last week. Much as I would like to see Trump win the GOP nomination and thus help bury that party, I don't see it happening. Maybe he's going to mount a third party Independent run. Who knows. But what Trump's presence is doing is creating massive problems, perhaps short term, perhaps long term, for the GOP, and its 2016 presidential aspirations. So, I say, bon chance, Donald. Trump is showing well in the GOP polls right now because he can articulate his racist, anti-ethnic remarks better than the other GOP candidates who, in reality, are probably more anti-ethnic and racist than he is. He's also an obnoxious, low-information, loudmouthed demigogue, and Republicans go for that, too...c.f., Sarah Palin, and several of the other current GOP presidential nomination wannabe's. I'd just bet that Trump is the favorite of several of our right-wing posters here in .wrecked.boats. They won't admit it, but...they love him. The scariest thing about imagining Trump as POTUS is he would have the keys to the "football". There are at least a dozen GOP wannabe's in the nominating race to whom that comment could easily apply.

You make a lot of assumptions about "folks" you don't really know. I know a bunch of UAW people. My wife's family and most of their friends worked for Chrysler or Delco. Before Tennessee, the jobs were going to Mexico and a lot of the manufacturing is still there. That is where the Delco Radio operation went when my mother in law, 2 sisters in law and several of their friends lost their jobs. The last time I was in Kokomo, that was a big empty building. Ask those people what they think of Mexicans. Mexicans doing labor in the US or Mexicans doing skilled assembly jobs in Mexico? My ex-wife worked at the Lordstown, OH GM plant straight out of high school back in the late 70's. Skilled assembly job? What a laugh. Barely trained monkey work is more like it. And the pay was damn good, and the union protected your job no matter how badly you screwed up. She used to boast about the time she purposely caused the assembly line to shut down. Got called in to be fired, but the union rep saved her. That kind of union crap is what ultimately moved those jobs down south and to Mexico. The union had a big hand in the loss of middle class manufacturing in America. Sounds like you have fine taste in women. |

What ab out the big business Democrats and their uber (sic) wealthy constituents? Far fewer of them on the D side. Big business has always been catered to by Republicans. Oh, so if there are fewer, then they're all OK. I suppose there's some logic there somewhere. -- Guns don't cause problems. Gun owner behavior causes problems. |

Ask those people what they think of Mexicans. Once again, it isn't the Mexicans who screwed over these workers...it is their former employers. The anger should be directed at the companies who moved the jobs offshore for greed while in search of cheap labor and weak environmental and safety standards. While there will be some workers who may blame the Mexican workers, Chinese workers, Vietnamese workers, et cetera, most know by now it was their former corporate employers who did them dirty. Maybe not but emotions are seldom driven by fact And neither are your posts on this issue and many others. Everyone knws a bunch of people and has an anecdote about this, that, or the other, but you cannot quantify in any scientific way the number of "American" workers who lost their jobs because of corporate flight and instead of blaming the corporations blame the workers who got their jobs. If your friends and in-laws are still blaming Mexicans for loss of their jobs, they're in a time warp Trump is polling at 25% There must be a lot of people in the same time warp. Oh, *now* Trump's lead in the GOP polling means something to you? Funny, it didn't seem to mean much to you last week. Much as I would like to see Trump win the GOP nomination and thus help bury that party, I don't see it happening. Maybe he's going to mount a third party Independent run. Who knows. But what Trump's presence is doing is creating massive problems, perhaps short term, perhaps long term, for the GOP, and its 2016 presidential aspirations. So, I say, bon chance, Donald. Trump is showing well in the GOP polls right now because he can articulate his racist, anti-ethnic remarks better than the other GOP candidates who, in reality, are probably more anti-ethnic and racist than he is. He's also an obnoxious, low-information, loudmouthed demigogue, and Republicans go for that, too...c.f., Sarah Palin, and several of the other current GOP presidential nomination wannabe's. I'd just bet that Trump is the favorite of several of our right-wing posters here in .wrecked.boats. They won't admit it, but...they love him. The scariest thing about imagining Trump as POTUS is he would have the keys to the "football". There are at least a dozen GOP wannabe's in the nominating race to whom that comment could easily apply. "Damn! I can't find my keys", Hillary replied as she searched the bottom of her pocketbook. LOL! |

That was non-responsive. Why bother quoting previous messages if you are not responding to what was said? It was perfectly responsive. Whatever the "illegal" Mexicans are doing in manual labor jobs, they didn't tank our economy. |

I've assisted two employees go through this very process. Why not hire unemployed educated Americans? Twice the cost? H1 visa program is criminal! There have been a number of TV shows about this. Companies hire South Asians for less than half what the current US residents were making (who get fired) and then they threaten the Asians with losing their visa if they want a raise. I figure it cost me about $20K a year 12 years ago. Kept the salaries down across the board. |
