I don't think anything will save us. I just went to lunch with 3 salesmen. I said, "you don't think our jobs are next? You don't think some rednecks down south will do what we do for less? We make $70k give or take. You don't think someone in the south will do it for less?".
And one of them says, "they already have customer service reps stealing our orders in Fort Worth that only make $30K".
America is doomed. And it's the dirty south that's gonna take us down. Republicans. Conservatives. Bible Belters.
We thought we won in November? Think again. It's the new Civil War.
Well just like Lincoln controlled the Federal Government, Obama has it now. We have the military, thank God. We control the purse strings starting Jan 20 2009.
Thank God!
But it's too late. Wages are going down. The South will take our $30 hr jobs for $15 and fuck up the entire economy, and they'll benefit from it.
Isn't that how they lost the Civil war? We had all the industry? Well their taking it back.
I suggest they manufacture and buy foreign cars and we should support our Big 3. Ford should buy Chrysler and then GM and Ford will be the Big 2.
And no more Free fucking federal tax dollars for Toyota and Honda. Alabama has given them so many tax breaks it is sickening. Yet they vote not to give American car companies any $?
No more pork for Alabama.
Amazing how patriotic you guys were for war but not on this issue. Pitting American workers against each other. When there are more people than there are jobs, people will work for much less. You have sold your fellow American workers out.
When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I was not a Jew.
When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
