You are right. We did see it coming and we opted for going to work and raising our families. We did our job as best we could but should have done more.

...and this is EXACTLY what the DC scumbags wanted and expected us to do. Remember this?
RANGEL: And one thing you can depend on, you don’t have to be worried about what the middle-class is gonna do. Things are so bad. They have to put food on their tables. Clothes for their kids. Get them in school. I think this is a tremendous opportunity for a stronger America.
That was during discussions on the “Stimulus Bill.” At the same roundtable
REICH: …”I am concerned, as I’m sure many of you are, that these jobs not simply go to high-skilled people who are already professionals or to white male construction workers…I have nothing against white male construction workers, I’m just saying there are other people who have needs as well.”
But it goes back farther than that. It goes back to the Nixon DoJ agreement with AT&T to implement Affirmative Action under the oversight of the EEOC. (Some called that the Equal Employment Commission, some called it the Eventual Elimination Of Caucasians...you decide) That agreement was in exchange for the DoJ dropping some sort of anti-trust suit against AT&T. At the time, AT&T was the largest non-government employer in the free world, so once the social engineers brought AT&T to heel, all the other corporations fell meekly in line....as did us workers...who needed those jobs...to put food on the tabnle...cloths on the kids...put them through school....
