You are ignorant.
I have 2 college degrees and my 2nd degree I graduate with honors fool.
Your stupidity is laughable. You honeslty believe it is only the non educated feeling the pinch. Not only do I have 2 degrees but I have also invested serious time and money into my A+ and CCNA certifications
SO please stop being an ignorant self serving jack ass and try to realize that there is a huge need for corporate America to create better liveable wage jobs.
Why are you so afraid of creating more and better opportunity for the masses ????
You know what? I have a two-year degree, as well. And *I* got laid off earlier this year. Having a degree doesn't entitle you to a job either. What did *I* do?
*I* went out there, while on unemployment, and worked in a sh-- job PT to supplement my unemployment. All the while, *I* cultivated personal contatcts and worked on *MY* resume. *I* took civil service exams. *I WORKED* to find another job.
*I* found one, and at a better employer than my lost job. No union was there to pull my nuts out of the fire, *I* did it for *MYSELF*.
So quityerbitchin and get out there and do it for yourself.

What you think it easy finding better work. I have been struggling for over a year to find better work, and I have 2 college degrees, and have graduated with honors. I send out numerous resumes a week, and I try to contact anyone I know who can help me. There are very few opportunites and those that are above average receive 100's of applicants.
Take your heads out of your butts people. The fact is there are not enough good solid jobs around for everyone, and until there are more opportunities created, and sacrafices made at the top more and more people will continue to sink lower and lower into povery or worse. Many companies choose to higher temp workers so they don't have to offer any benefits, and many peopl eaccept these jobs simply because they have no choice.
So work as a temp worker!

Your stock didn't lose any money if you didn't sell it. It lost value which has returned. Smart investors put more money in GE when it devalued.
You think you can't make it on $10 an hour? Go visit a foriegn country where they make $200 a YEAR.
If you can't make it in America, you ain't making it ANYWHERE.
Yeah...this guy reminds me of the Dead Kennedy's song "Holiday In Cambodia". i'd love to see him survive in the barrios of Mexico City or the slums in Gaza.

Good Ole Joe the neocon.
Its always us vs: them with you. If you don't see it Joe's way then you are obviously nothing more then left wing extremist hell bent on delivering the devils deeds.
Joe you seriously have to manage your completly blind ignorance.
OOps, now he's going to attack me with some neoconservative non sense.
First of all, you, I'm no neocon. I'm a PALEOcon. Small government, nonexistent taxes and a COMPLETE and PERFECT free market.
That's what I believe in. While I laud Bush's tax cuts, he's f*cked it all up by spending too much to appease limp-wristed whiners such as yourself.
How about this....you're laid off, right? Use some of your "government entitlements", take out a student loan and go to college rather than sitting around witha thumb up your arse.
There's a novel idea. PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY.

Now who's story is worse?

If my company thought it was cost effective enough to consider taking my job and shipping it to India, knowing it would still get done properly, and with the same quality, I would be PISSED, but there's no way I could blame the company.
That, and I know I have a couple of degrees, a bit of experience and I don't have a "whoa is me" attitude, and I would go out and find another job.
Look at your job. Is it disposable? Could any grown adult do your job with very minimal training and no education? If so, you might wanna think about making yourself less disposable.
God, I can't stand this "it's everybody else's fault but mine" attitude. I may have to burn my voter's registration card after this thread!

Come over to the light side, you won't regret it!
You know you're not a pantywaisted, limp-wristed, linguini-spined liberal!!

And Jack W brought more BILLIONS to GE's bottom line than any other person in that behemoth of a company through his six sigma ideas and innovative management.

That's the way it's SUPPOSED to work.

Well, I could at least understand his point about FDR and Truman turning a blind eye to Soviet atrocities in Germany, but beyond that he's lost me.

Damn, you and LA are agreeing. Is this the first sign of the apocolypse?

I agree with both of you. There are people who earn what they have, and others who expect things to be handed to them. I never expect ANYTHING to be handed to me. I worked for everything I have and am damn proud of that. If I was not happy with the working conditions or pay, I ask for changes. If I do not receive those changes, I leave and get another job. It is their loss, not mine. Again, I do not need a crutch to get through life and I do not want a crutch to get through life and it seems like too many people rely on the crutch that is the unions.
I have an interesting union story:
When I worked for EDS at PPL, on one of my first days I set about to move computers, taking the initiative for something that needed to be done.
Mind you I'd been there about a week. The IBEW reps went straight to my supervisor and told him that I was doing THEIR work. I was officially reprimanded by my boss in fron of these two fat, lazy, worthless IBEW fargs. And for what?
SHOWING INITIATIVE.
Fug unions. They're for the 19th century, NOT the 21st.

Weight watchers here, too. it's the only thing that ever worked for me.
My eating problem isn't necessarily eating BAD stuff, just eating A LOT, and WW teaches you portion control.
