When will the government answer to we, the people? The American people are tired of worrying about their jobs going overseas. We are tired of our wages going down while corporations make millions. We are tired of hearing about how there's lot of jobs out there when the reality is that these jobs pay less than what we currently make/used to make.
America was built on immigration, but it does not mean that we should throw open the doors. Our economy needs to adjust to the influx of new citizens. There needs to be a balance so that everyone can have access to a better life with a nice home and safe working conditions. Wages should not go down just because there is poorer person who is willing to do it for less without health benefits. How is this moral? Who ultimately pays for this, anyways? You and I while the rich corporation heads laugh about it on their company paid yachts.
George W. Bush might think that it's uniquely American for a divorced woman of 3 to work 3 jobs to make ends meet, but I don't. We should call it what it is: hatred towards the Middle Class. The sad thing is that it won't end until we the people take a stand.

They are destroying the middle class and the lower class with outsourcing and massive immigration. Temporary workers are one thing, when they are needed. But why give them citizenship when the job market could tank at any time? Then what do you do with millions of immigrants on top of millions of unemployed Americans?
ReplyDeleteI only hope the American citizens are keeping track of this and will vote their sorry butts out on election day.
One of the fallacies is that immigrants do the jobs Americans won't do. In a limited sense that is true. But they'll do the jobs Americans won't do at the ridiculously low wage (often below the already low minimum wage).
ReplyDeleteIt's actually a complicated issue so I'm not gonna try to answer it here. But as an economics major I don't see a problem with the idea of outsourcing. But I do have this question: Can a country that produces no goods ever really sustain itself?
Just get out your effing vasoline, people, and bend OVER
