Thanks for the reply Jack, Sure blame everything on the unions. I blame monopolies & that's how unions work, they create a monopoly then behave in the worst of monopolist fashion. They are run in the main by uneducated simpletons & I give you ex union heavy Harry as a classic example. Keep shopping at Wal-Mart so the illegal aliens will keep their jobs. Wal-Mart promotes BUY, MADE IN AMERICA. That's the biggest joke of them all. Take a look at where their merchandise comes from. Cheap foreign labor! Cheap foreign labor produces cheap crap. yes it's "cheap" foreign labour so what?? Try to look just past your own front door. All the counties you complain about have to start out somewhere because they have nothing & yes for a while the people will work for almost nothing, but remember it's not "just" the workers, it's the regulations, the councils (local authorities etc etc ) they're all only too happy to see US Cos setup & start making stuff giving their people jobs. However after a while just like your country people want more, then the greenies start whining, the council wants a bigger cut till after a while there are so many greedy socialist hangers on that the once "cheap" thing isn't much cheaper than the made in the US brand. The examples are Japan, Malaysia, Phil. Rkor, The advantage to "you" is those countries are now huge consumers of your wares, your computers & technology. They never would have been had your market not been able to drag them up. The humanitarian benefits are just a great free bonus. China & Rkor are already starting the "demand" more & particularly China will ultimately fail or dump communism, but whatever if the west's market clought can raise their standards of living even just slightly the market for the wests goods will be huge. So free trade benefits everybody, except the union bullies who are just Harry type simpletons. Cleaning up the environment will lead to millions of jobs. When I look at a land fill. I see a natural resources not just the garbage you toss out. No jack the environment is doing just fine, & cleaning it up as you suggest will not add anything to GDP. It's just a union ploy to try & deal themselves back into the game, after they almost singlehandedly chased real manufacturing out of the US. The so called environment problems, global warming & all the other BS is just BS & nothing more. The world has never had so many people, so much safe food, such long life expectancies, infant survival rates, etc etc etc The biggest problem really is aids & guess what you've almost got that managable, what union was involved??? None?? it was free enterprise driven by the profit motive, which got there & mostly always will. I suspect you might be a child from your posts at least mentally, but us proper grownups can remember the previous scare campaigns from the simpleton left, our world was for sure, without any doubt going to run out of food in the mid 80's according to the simpletons, the water was gone etc etc etc In previous time the religious charlatons were the main spruikers for this crap but these days almost any simpletons can have a go. They don't have the where with all to be rational & love running in packs so any cock & bull story that comes along to give them a cause, or usually control over others, they grab it with both greedy hands, trouble is it never stands rational examination. This country is moving towards a society that will one day have a country cleaner than American Indians did. A society that has a 35 hour work week with more paid vacations and full health benefits. Just as soon as people like you, ask not what you can do for your county ask what the hell is my country spending my tax dollars on. But you already have that!!! 300 mil people almost none live in squalor. The aboriginals did& the died very very young on account of it. Again stop running with the loons get off your sad arse & have look, the world has never been in better shape, never. You have the audacity to call others who think differently than your moral low IQ simpletons. What else can it be??? It's all there for the looking but they still run around trying to hold the world back & oops guess what it just happens they know what's best & in Harry's union mates' case they want their criminal power back now they've chased most manufacturing away.

It's only going to get better once the money grabbing political hypocrites in Washington are strung up by their thumbs. I know exactly where you stand. Sure give congress a pay raise.

As far as your other complaints, well, almost every president in my memory, and I *remember* Truman, Eisenhower (who cheated on his wife), Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and Bush, lied and participated in deceit to one degree or another, and on issues far more important than who was giving them blow jobs.

I hate people that can't sum up their thoughts in a coherent statement.
Instead Morons like you, need to reply to individual statements with whole paragraphs of misinformed diluted ideas. If for one minute you believe that a corporation has your best interest in mind. You really are lost. Corporations don't give a dam about you, towns, environment, countries, or their employees. They only care about the bottom line, stock price, dividend, and whether or not they are going to get their bonuses. Wal-Mart is a perfect example of how companies will screw anyone over just to make a profit. Take a look at the thriving towns in America where they have put everyone out of business. All you see are This space for rent. Which is the republican success symbol. R+D is a way to manufacture jobs, Not selling the same crap for years. Without R+D you have a stagnant economy. Consumers get the same low quality crap at a higher price. Sure it may come in a new color or have an added bell or whistle. But it's the same inefficient bogus crap that been marketed in a new and exciting way. I won't say that Unions have done a great job. They two are as flawed as the corporations. Unions have made an impact on the companies bottom line by insisting that children be excluded from the factory work place. improving the safety of workers. and giving the workers benefits packages. The only reason that Henry Ford paid his worker above scale pay was so they would be able to buy his cars. When it comes right down to it. Stagnation with Republican Voo Doo economics giving the rich tax cuts, doesn't work. The money never trickles down. It just makes people like you trickle down closer to poverty. I sure am glad that you and your children worked 15 hours a day in steel mill and sweat shops instead attending the third grade. Have a wonderful migraine head ache comprehending the above.

Do you think if there was a market for things Corps wouldn't try to exploit it?? of course they would & most real advances have been driven by the profit motive which you of course see as evil, because you don't get something for nothing. I won't say that Unions have done a great job. They two are as flawed as the corporations. Unions have made an impact on the companies bottom line by insisting that children be excluded from the factory work place. improving the safety of workers. and giving the workers benefits packages. The only reason that Henry Ford paid his worker above scale pay was so they would be able to buy his cars. But you seem to know about Henry Ford's comments yet can't see the same rationale when used globally. Lets cut to it Jack you & Harry are just failed wasted lives, individuals who couldn't cut it even in the best country on earth, so you don't change??? no you continue with the very reason your lives were wasted, waiting & bleating, hoping somebody, anybody might throw you a free bone, pathetic. When it comes right down to it. Stagnation with Republican Voo Doo economics giving the rich tax cuts, doesn't work. The money never trickles down. It just makes people like you trickle down closer to poverty. Taxes are a disincentive for the clever to do anything. Any Govt of any colour just squanders collected taxes on pet projects for their particular constituents, dems or repubs. So reduce taxes at least there is more incentive for the actual GDP builders & less for the socialists to waste. I sure am glad that you and your children worked 15 hours a day in steel mill and sweat shops instead attending the third grade. Typical mantra of those with no real answers.

That China? No thanks. I don't want my money going there. I don't buy the crap about how an influx of money will drag them kicking and screaming into a world of better behavior. |

That China? See Doug everything is relative. The environment is fine you only get caught up in the crap because vested (usually unionist driven lefties) drive it. i.e. it does much more actual damage to the environment to recycle your domestic garbage than just throw it away. As for death penalty laws?? gees louise you have some pretty scary practices on that front yourselves; deserved??? Me personally I say nobody (no not even him) ever "deserves" that US or China & it's a comment on the executioners more than the criminals. No thanks. I don't want my money going there. I don't buy the crap about how an influx of money will drag them kicking and screaming into a world of better behavior. I totally agree with you on that & I'm the same, but equally you & I are exercising our free choice & we still have a choice. You (with me) exercise it but build walls & we'll never be able to make that choice rationally in possession of the real facts & as proven with your car industry it's down hill from there. The Harry unionist bully boys don't want you to have a choice because they controlling lying dishonest simpletons K |
