YOU are the one saying undercutting the competition is unethical.

Oh, no. Quite to the contrary - I've been absolutely crystal clear and I think it's fair to say you're flatly mistating the record. Competition is one thing - unfair competition is quite another. You are the one with the ethical problem that can't tell the difference between the two. I've spelled out my position in the letter that opened this thread and have been quite clear as to precisely what it is that is being protested. So, you're not gonna get by with mistating what I've said. I've been consistent here and on multiple other threads on this subject and in no way unclear about what I'm protesting. Try again junior.

But YOU SAID undercutting competition is unethical.

Quote it. I can cite what I rebut from you. Cite it. Show me where I made that general statement. I've been specific as I noted before. So cite it and point to where it was said.

The difference is your undies get knotted up when other people point out that money is and always will be an important part of life on this rock.

Nope, never have thrown a fit over that - you're making things up now.

As for the rest of what you said, it made zero sense.. I think that's discostu speak for I can't deal with it so I won't. I think I'll take the same approach.

479 - But when you're competing with the US market, you have an ethical responsibility not to undercut the us market with foreign labor in an effort to scuttle the market.

There you are, undercutting the competition is unethical. I'm just taking it to the next level, you're upset about foreign labor undercutting US labor, but lots of people are upset about your old boss WalMart undercutting Mom&Pop. If undercutting is unethical then it's unethical all the time. If it's not unethical then it's ethical all the time.

Sorry but you started blathering about what was OK yesterday vs today and it didn't make sense, had a few nasty sentence fragments that made things even more confusing. Stating that your last paragraph made zero sense was simply Disco Stu speak for "you should proof read".
