Today's CEO's know they'll get no pushback from the Wh0res in DC, who's votes they've already bought and paid for.

It takes a lot of money to get re-elected to Congress/Senate/POTUS, where do you think that money comes from?

Not from Oraganized Labor. We are screwed, long term. It's just a matter of how long it will take to train up our Asian replacments.

Think it can't happen?

Ask anyone who used to be in the Textiles or US Auto or Steel industry where their manufacturing jobs went.

The only people in DC we have protecting our jobs today (ironically), are at the FAA and NTSB.
