just a tid bit of info for you conservatives
the problems facing this country are due entirely to the greed of corporations, corporations that were making record profits during the 70's and 80's but still outsourced all their jobs overseas. not because they had to, but because they wanted to.
now you can be a stupid brainwashed idiot conservative and think the only way to get those jobs back is to kiss the ass of big business, cut taxes, reduce regulations, allow mass pollution, take away the right to collective bargaining, etc. (aka reverse 150 years of progress). or you can think like a liberal, someone who believes the government has the right and the capability to make things better through direct involvement in the economy, and demand that business return to america, force production to start up again, and rip the worlds resources out of the hands of the few undeserving elite who possess them.
workers of the world, unite !
