Re: Dr Paul Craig Roberts Real Unemployment Rate is 22%
Dr Paul Craig did offer a solution in his interview..Since most of the Manufacturing jobs are now abroad..You must get them to return manufacturing to the US..To do this you must put a VAT (Tax) on their point of orign..If an item is manufactured in Malasia at 12 cents per hour; we must equal out the savings of production over seas by taxing the total value when the Item is imported to the US...

Re: Dr Paul Craig Roberts Real Unemployment Rate is 22%
We need to get America back to work right now. Forget about the Rich helping. If government doesn't do something right now.....
that number that is quietly licking their wounds will begin to stand up and fight back.
If you don't think we can see how this health care bill will line the pockets of the already rich insurance companies, costing us more money that we are supporting Family members who are of work with. It will strain us even more. If you think we don't see that as Government trying to get into our pockets again. You are very wrong.
 Quoting: stoidi 755218



sorry to hear about your family's situation, but, waiting for the government isn't going to help a damn thing...see your second thought regarding Health Care.

Absolutely crazy, the jobs won't come back, if it's equal then there is no incentive for the company. besides, they can still sell to other countries with marked up labor on 12 cents.

Beware non-medical doctors who use doctor in their title.



Dumbass...That means he has a Doctorate Degree.

Calm down, globalization is just equaling out the obscene inequalities in standards of living between human beings. it would take multiple earths worth of resources to give every human being first world standards of living, so globalization is just doing the fair thing by evening everything out.

Once the standards of living/employment in the US drop like a rock, multinationals will give us the manufacturing jobs back at the same level of Chinese wage-slavery that they currently 'enjoy'. All part of the one world order brain chipped mind control slave nightmare coming up!

I really believe that it is time to bring back the poor farm, type of situation to help folks get a hand up.....a "Grapes of Wrath" sort of situation where families could move into their own cottage and work for room and board plus some to save up so they could get on.

Don't laugh it's coming.


The sad reality is some people would love to have that type of opportunity again.

We would have full employment here in Cali if we could just get rid of the illegals
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 299322


Same in Texas. The apartments moved illegals in downstairs, and next door. One bedroom apartments - 2 people max occupancy - and they each are families of 5. Both families have chopped down 30 year old shrubs, and damaged my plants too, attempting to turn this into a barrio.
Both illegal men have jobs.

My husband has been looking for work since September.

Yeah, bet you're all eager to clean toilets and pick crops in the hot sun all day. I just know you're dying to be underpaid stockboys and backroom dishwashers and fill all the jobs that the illegals have been doing all along. I've seen them bend over a hot iron all day pressing some rich man's underwear and scrubbing the sh*t off the outside of the toilet bowl and be thankful-YES, thankful-to the person who hired them. They know they are blessed to have any payment for what they do. I know this and wonder which of your teenage sons or daughters, fathers or mothers want to take over these jobs? I just wonder.

Re: Dr Paul Craig Roberts Real Unemployment Rate is 22%
To bad that we can't fire some people that need firing. Job incompetence is one, and putting to much over head in the business, which is causing a total failure of the business.
As the owners of the business we realize the only way to save
the business is to go bankrupt, so we can lay off the workers
and revamp the business by streamlining it. The agencies would have to be shrunk to a workable size, all redundant bureaucracies would have to be closed or sent back to the
right part of the business, which the local worker could handle. The people in charge of financial and money matter
would of course have to be replaced. All accentual agencies
that can be taken over by private businesses could do so.


With the streamlining of the business their would be less of
top down. So it would be at least only 30% at the top and the rest local.

Yes, I truly would like to fire the company heads. abduct
