kudos:3 | As much as I don't like any of our jobs going over-seas, you guys should appreciate that a bit.. afterall, isn't this a large group of people who like to save their money and not have to spend alot to get things??
Again, I hate our jobs going over seas, however, you have to face facts.. its NOT just about the U.S. - you also have to remember that poor countries tend to get pissed.. when they get pissed and have nothing better to do, they like to find people to take their anger out on.. der.. 9/11? Those people don't like "rich america" as one of their complaints..
Second, I go back to what you pay for something.. if you really want to be paying $600 for a DVD player still, then bring those jobs home if you want. If you want to pay $5.00 a pound for tomatoes, then kick out the "illegals" who are taking all those jobs away from us Americans, who don't want them in the first place..
Sometimes you have to stop running on your parties talking points and think for yourselves for once.
The issue is not jobs leaving the country.. who the hell wants to work on an assembly line for $6.50 an hour doing work that really isn't even worth $6.50 an hour anyway? And in the spirit, around here anyways, where people think we should have better skilled jobs, the problem in America is that we don't go after that kinda work.. we produce NOTHING in America, really... maybe its time to innovate and bring a new type of job to this country that matters and stop worrying about the BS jobs that have left.. good riddins.. enjoy your savings at Wal-Mart.. with out some jobs leaving, you'd not be enjoying, many of you, those awesome HD TV sets that you can now afford to buy.
Seriously.. there has to be a balance.. it can't be one way, and as much as I'd LOVE to be more isolationist in this country, the reality is that it will never happen, for our own good. |
