Do you think the the Labor groups, UAW, AFL-CIO, CWA, etc... have anything to do with driving up the cost of labor?

The reason i am asking, is because i am sure you can find plenty of people in the US who would be willing to put cars together for far less than what the UAW workers demand. If they don't like their pay, they strike. Do you think that is fair? How about airline pilots. teachers, police, even sports figures. are labor unions the root of high prices?

everything must have a balance.

unions help the little guy from being bullied by big corporations. on the other hand, over do the union and it kills the bottom line of the company the workers work for.



anyways... out sourcing of IT jobs is the trend and it wont go away. it will only get worse.

unemployeed IT people need to redirect their focus to the porn industry. remember indian porn sucks and will never beat out good old USA porn.


PORN. MADE IN THE USA. gotta take pride in that.

i dont like japanses porn..

very rare will you get a japanese girl w a toned body and long legs.

plus most asians, esp in japanese porn, have micro tools... thats why they have to hump as fast as rabbits..

guys w big tools just let the mass do all the work
