Huh, unemployment is less than it was during Reagan's term. Interest rates are down to a 40 year low, and like it or not outsourcing is good since it does reduce costs for companies to provide goods and services to consumers.

Heck if you had your way DVD players would cost $300 and a pair of shoes would be $100, due to the union costs, regulations, and the added cost of unbridled trial lawyers going to town.

Of course, you can't buy the cheap crap because you don't have a job. But hey, it's cheap!

I agree.
The stuff you need to live like Food, and a House are not lowered at all by this. They keep going up. So not having a good paying job is big deal. In the old days you could live quite well as long as you limited your toys.
