I remember when any 40 hour a week job, no matter how menial, bought a single person their own decent, modest digs, providing money for food, running a vehicle, with money left over... without the need for roommates.

Throw the thing up under one name with the left hand, it comes down in the right hand under a different name and Twinkies will still be produced. It's been a common enough ploy since the early 80s in the U.S. It's all about making sure that workers lose traction, monies, benefits, and have a continually shrinking quality of life. If you haven't been paying much attention and seen this happen before, watch this one. You'll learn a bit." At this point I don't expect people who never lived the freedom of movement and choice that I had when there was a closed lock loop that prevented manufacturing being set up outside the country. There was always the cheap labor to be had. The change came when CorporaGov changed the rules. You're all living the hell that has created. The very, very sad thing is... so many of you have been so mind-fucked you espouse the thoughts of others that have been planted for your own destruction. Sad bunch of Mofos. There's a part of me that says.... you really do deserve what is coming to you in the U.S. for so loving the lie.

The days "buy American" are completely over. Nobody manufacturing in America will work for less than $2000.00 an hour,not to mention half are crooks that will steal your ideas and make them their own. Don't even get me started on thief completely insane minimum order quantity they require. If you don't do a run of 10,000 of a widget well then there is no widget for you. There is no where for small business in America to go other than offshore. I just love all these idiots complaining about China as they sit in their Levi's manufactured in Honduras , typing on their keyboard/computer manufactured in Japan, smothering their pancakes in Maple syrup made in Canada, whilst looking at their wives fake tits that were assembled and made in India, sipping the latest and most fabulous coffee imported from Columbia. Can't wait to see the list of all the BS that is made here that someone will eventually post. Bronco Bammy is waging war on China because he knows that is where ALL the small business is doing business. SICK OF IT ALL! |
