To ship our Jobs overseas and unemployed fellow Americans so that Corporate heads can make Multi Millions until the company goes Bust and then keep the Money and their wealth while the Unemployed who lost their Jobs DIRECTLY from these Greedy MoFos then starve to death trying to survive on what little they have left?

If we must fight and die for a cause, let the cause do more than fatten a few millionaires.

I had trouble with my GM Car. I called and spoke to some rude ass in Argentine who told me 'too bad' you are stuck with the Car.
I had trouble with my Visa bill and called. I spoke to some woman in INDIA who knew all of my private information.
I had trouble with my Web service and called on night and spoke to someone in the Philippines. The billing center is only 20 miles from me where they take my money. The Problem center is on the other side of the world.

I spoke to a wife or an Auto Credit worker and was told her husband was ordered to go to India and tran them to do his job or he would loose his and his pension. he did as was told and afterwards was fired because, they didn't need him anymore.

Is this what we fight and die for? GM lost 23 million last year as reported. The CEO salary was 16 million. So, they really only lost 7 million but he pocketed 16 million because he was greedy. No your sons and grandchildren will pay in their taxed the bail out that allowed him to keep the 16 million he stole in my opinion and kept.

I hope truely that Obama fixes this Greed for money and life policy. It is totally messed up. I never felp more like a puppet on a string than I have felt this past year. It doesn't matter how hard I work. It matters more how many milions these CEO's can steal and get away with. Then, we the public puppets have to pay for it. This totally sucks..

Wow, couldn't agree more or have said it better, Ken. Thanks for sharing and being dead-on-target.

Some mighty sad, but true words uttered by Ken. People wonder what's wrong with this country (America.) I guess most are just blind or snowed by reality and shrug their shoulders. If products and jobs keep going to other countries, one day we Americans will have no money to buy those products. Scary thought, but it's developing as we speak.

I didn't know what the 2nd. Ammendment was, so I looked it up;
"The Second Ammendment to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects a right to keep and bear arms."

Maybe it's like my Memorial Day one and disappears for periods of time. Speaking of taking off, is it time for the strippers yet?
