Smith's father, Michael J. Smith Sr., is embittered by his son's death because of what he sees as young men dying because of a class system.

"Big business wants you to be loyal to them, but they're never loyal to you," he said. "They don't care about these young people dying, just as long as they make their dollar.

"It's a shame that the young people of this world have to die for us."

Of course, the Post-Dispatch reporters are not trying to instigate a class war at all...(/sarcasm)

HP CEO Carly Fiorina "There is no job that is America's God-given right anymore."


"When my colleagues get a letter from a constituent who has been displaced by foreign workers, they should write back to them and say, 'It is the policy of this government to displace you, to move you into a lower economic income category, because we believe in cheap labor and we believe the politics of open borders helps our party." - Congressman Tancredo

"Unless there is fresh Congress authorisation, the H-1B visas will automatically revert to 65,000 a year, beginning October. American companies, keen on cost cutting measures, want the liberal provisions to continue." - Hindustan Times, 12-July-2003

"I don't look at this from an economic point of view but the political and social points of view. The question really is whether America can remain a great power or a dominant power if it becomes a primarily service economy, and I doubt that. A country has to have an industrial base in order to play a significant role in the world. And I am concerned from that point of view." - Henry Kissenger 16-July-2003

Well, Mr Smith is pretty close to the truth about big business (and goverment) not being loyal to the American people.

"senior citizens wants you to be loyal to them, but they're never loyal to you," he said. "They don't care about these young peoples homes, mortgage or children, just as long as they get their dollar at the end of the month.
