"Something is seriously wrong with the way
things are going"
Well...
the avg. working man can less and less afford value as time goes on. So we're
paying the same as "yesterday" for more cheaply made goods.
What would the heavy "quality" of a 1960 Spridget tonneau or convertible top go
for
today? The thinner stuff we get today costs
the same as what we paid "yesterday" and even this level of quality is going up
in price.
Cheap unskilled (illegal alien) isn't saving us money......costs the American
taxpayer 60 BILLION a year in "free" entitlements 'cause their cheapo wages
can't support them in this country....and they'll take it 'cause what choice do
they have? The new "super poor" class and an introduction to socialism.
Skilled cheap labor is "insourced" from overseas as they'll work for less as
well even as a major part of industry/mfg and "service" is "outsourced" for
cheaper foreign labor as well.
Today's upper level exec. makes nearly
500 times what the avg Amer. worker makes today vs. 25 times what the avg
Amer worker made back in the mid-60's....
they're not only keeping up with inflation, they're beating it. Not the avg
joe, though.
The President of Mattel make 5,000 times
what the avg. Chinese toy production worker makes. No wondere they can't
"afford" lead-free better quality paint...or decent quality control for
un-poisoned pet food.
Now we'll have South American trucking
bypassing American (Union) ports unless this gets blocked by new legislation.
Bush met with the new Mexican president
in Canada last month in the office of the
Canadian leader. Gee, I wonder what they
were discussing? Probably a plan
to replace the US dollar with a MexAmeriCa ("Euro"?).
Something is seriously wrong? You better believe it.
