Broader unemployment measure at 17.5%

[Bob Dog]

You would actually trust your fate to unregulated corporations ? The government is bloated, and full blown socialism is intolerably oppressive, but the notion that unregulated capitalism will solve our problems is just down right childish. You, I and the rest of the citizenry of this and any other nation are nothing more to the big money capitalist than meat on two legs. We are a resource to be used consumed and thrown away. The real truth of the matter is that we used to live in a national economy and we are now living in an international economy. We have chosen the purchase of consumer goods over investing in the means of production. The factories have sailed overseas and with them the jobs that we had grown to feel that we were eternally entitled to. You and I my friend are competing with a person who is delighted to work for a bag of rice, some shoes and clothes and a plastic tarp to keep the rain out of the cardboard shack. Guess which reource the big money capitlaist is going to hire.
