of billions of dollars.

Yeh rape... funny what can happen when there is not an even playing field
and people are against the wall because they need to get paid. Those who
want to see American industry fail will find out soon enough what its like
to get raped once the economical trickle down takes effect. Brother havn't
been raped yet.

And what is wrong with Colorado that you have to defame that too?

He taught you to improve yourself?? Well maybe its what the unionizers
fathers in the 20s and 30s taught them too. Maybe its because that got tired
of doing a job no matter how menial or dirty it was while being walked over
and disrespected by corporate or for that matter people like you. Maybe
because they thought they had a right in sharing some of the wealth the
ceo's were making off there semi slave labor.

You mean like the Ford F-150, or the Chevy Silverado? You know, the #1 and

Yes, what a very good thing we have the nice God-Like Japs to do everything
for us, right? Don't worry. If enough idiots like you keep running things,
the Japs will one day own the US, and the rest of the world. Perhaps you
will be happier then. Oh, and when WWIII breaks out, and Japan is against
us, they will build our weapons, and equipment too. Just because they are
nice. Idiot.

work you do and long you could sustain a job loss.

The manager was trying to make a decision about Jack and Jill.
He is talking to Jill and says I am not sure if I should lay you or
Jack off.
She answered that he should jack off.

Not only are your comments asinine, but so are your jokes.

Gosi lives in Iceland. He is a sick asshole, who cares about no one but

Here is a question for you:

Suppose you were offered choice between these two:

1. Agree to only use gasoline made from crude oil produced in the US, which
would result in a price of $2.50 per gallon.

2. Willing to purchase gasoline made from imported or US crude oil so that
you only have to pay $1.50 per gallon and hundreds of thousands of US oil
industry jobs would be lost.

That's what I thought. Your buy American only counts when it applies to you.

Actually, my father who was in the workforce through those formative years,
did not need a union to protect him any more than his son did throughout
his career. Maybe you have a romantic notion about what the unions are.
