Where did the jobs go?
Can you spell NAFTA?
How about "Third World Countries"?
The sad fact is that the American working man has priced himself out of the market and the jobs have gone where the labor is cheapest. The girl who makes those $150 Nikes in Indonesia makes $.46/hr or was it a day...I forget now.
Multi-national corporations have no stake in the local economy; their sole aim is to make as large a profit as possible. That is the aim of most businesses.
I'm not real sure just who you want to overthrow here, Bobert. Is it the Government, the corporations or just anyone that's doing better than you?
