She intentially shut down the line one day, and the union protected her and kept her from being fired. She told me the stories of how she and her co- workers harmed the company, messed with the cars, and generally were just bad employees, and through it all they kept their jobs and kept getting raises and bennies. There's a word for how people feel about this kind of union-bred crap, but it's certainly not "envy". So, your ex-wife was a loser. So are you. What a surprise. Should she have been fired and civilly charged? For marrying jackoff? Isn't that punishment enough? I assume you have called an end to the truce. It was great while it lasted. So what sin did your wife commit that caused her to be saddled with your sorry ass? Truce?? What truce? Maybe the one Dingy Dan respects? No one asked me to join a truce and I certainly didn't agree to one. this was just a bunch of posters cleaning up their own behaviour ...however briefly. |

I may not be happy with the exodus of jobs from here to there, but make no mistake, China needs us, far more than we need them. China may become the economic powerhouse, but before it does, it will have to address it's institutional social issues. Or, do you really believe it's "blend" of communism and capitalism will work in the long term? China's need for US is becoming less and less each month. China is developing and opening up markets for their products in Africa, Central and South America and the rest of the World. The US market is going to be left behind very soon. We do not produce anything but services which the Chinese are more than capable of doing themselves. The US economy is losing its buying power. Wait until this years mortgage crisis hits the news. The downturn has a ways to go yet. LOL, you should stop concentrating on the lagging indicators, and start concentrating on the leading indicators. We are by no means out of the woods, but the recovery started several months ago. By fall, it should be clear to even the most obtuse. The only thing the US had was unrestricted innovation but, that is being squashed. When investment in new ideas and innovation is being taxed at ridiculous levels the ability to bring those ideas and innovations to market in the US goes away. |
