So at least you admit that it's blood money paid to a collection of thugs.

I'm so glad FDR and Lyndon Johnson built this monstrosity.

Judge an entire group based upon the actions of a vast minority there Joey... I get the picture now, loud and clear.

Guess what? The rich have taken them overseas. So you won't get one from a rich person, either.

:tro:

Why? Any idea why the jobs have left? There must be a reason.

Couldn't possibly be Unmitigated Greed?

If what you allude to is correct, and "going primal" happens - which suggests violence - that is thuggery is it not? And unless we keep paying it happens - that is blood money. I was using your precedent as a basis.

Does anyone else in this discussion employ people?

At least they didn't say they were going to print more $.....

Just make sure you have a current passport. You might want to leave for a few years.

So they ALL, uniformly, showed "Unmitigated Greed"?

Or is it more likely, due to the uniformity of their action, that the conditions for making profit here in the United States was comprimised by unions and high labor rates, high taxes, excessive regulation, and the like?

Greed would be the pursuit of excessive profit, right? But stable and substantial profits at some level must be made if a company is to stay in business.

They moved the work to where it is profitable. It was that or go out of business.

You mean "Quantitative Easing" ?

No. I'm in the real world, asking you where are all these jobs you say exist. All these thousands and thousands of jobs the private job creators have, just sitting empty and unfilled, because the record number of unemployed "won't adapt".

You say they are there - where are they? I'm sure the hundreds of unemployed at the local office would welcome your direction to them.

And BTW, the "government creating jobs" worked okay for FDR, didn't it? You know, that "Great Depression" that made our parents so tough and instilled all that work ethic into us?

Very Nice back peddal Joey.. Verbal Judo.. Your point VERY CLEAR to anyone with half a brain (Nascar need not apply).

I kind of thought that.

If you're reading anything into it aside from what was typed, I suggest you delve into your own dark thoughts. It's not a Rorschach test.

Yes so far no talk of QEIII, thank god

Grandparents for me actually. FDR was dealing with a completely different economic scenario and breed of American than we have today. The sense of entitlement that has imprinted itself on the psyche of the modern resident of this country is absolutely embarrassing.

Clueless.... How is that strategy of "Moving Work where it is profitable" working out for the economy now Joey? How is it working out for the housing recovery Joey? High Taxes Joey? Most pay NONE... Corporations have a duty to employ citizens of the country in which they operate.

The difference is they knew when the economy turned around the jobs would come back... We don't have that today.. Too many people for far too few jobs. London is our future and it will happen sooner rather than later.
