Would love to know if the CEO and managers took a 50 percent cut, you know to lead by example.

It’s easy to sit behind a keyboard and exhort workers to watch their wages be cut to under 30K a year. And then expect them to take another cut. Sure they can go find another job, because there are so many available.

If we expect people to work and not mooch off the government, noy homeschool our kids because government schools are endoctrination centers, then there have to be family wage jobs out there.

My husband and I work three jobs between us. And that doesn’t count the homeschooling I do as well. Thank God one of Dh’s jobs is a union job, because, otherwise, we would be on government assistance as well. It’s not like we have a cushy life, but just to provide a lower middle class lifestyle for our children.

I think you might be blaming the wrong entity here....

Who or what has caused these companies to quit and leave America?

One or two managers and some executives, taking a pay cut wouldn't save many jobs. And using your words....it's easy to sit behind a keyboard and say that.

My point is plain. What has changed to allow this to happen? I contend it's been government..and unions. Which I think are one in the same...too much of the time.

I'm glad you all are hangin in there!!

FReegards,

Have to be? Why? Or else you'll gladly go on the dole? And if the freebies are cut off, then what?

LOL, all union flunkies have are implied threats of violence, backed by real violence, when necessary, of course.

I have a business opportunity for you two. Very little money down required, just a computer, internet connection and minimal programming skills.

The opportunity is to write some silly little computer games like you would see on Kongregate. The project should take less than 6 months if you are halfway competent. A year if you aren’t competent.

The average return on these games is multiple tens of thousands a month for a few years and possibly a lot more if they get popular.

Want to go for it? I’ll walk you through for free : )

One thing I will guarantee though when you get done is that you won’t be a union supporter anymore.
