Why can't we share the wealth?

Question

Not through taxes but, through domestic labor. Why do CEO's and Pro Sports players have to make $3,000 per hour while hourly workers make $7.25-$100.00 per hour domestically? We need to all pull together while we have the chance and stop spending our hard earned money (sweat) on companies that don't respect us for more than what we can give them. s***w both the political parties and their hacks that have done nothing but side with the money people to bring this nation to its knees. It's time for a grass roots movement that has nothing to do with electionas or this government. We need to start producing products, hand made if necessary in our own homes and garages to supply the American people with quality domestically made goods and products. Shouldn't we get back to "Made in America"? The good, cheap times are over folks. I own my own small business and never make more than four times my lowest earning employees wage. I never hire anyone that is here illegal. Will you join me?

Answer 1

I could not agree with you more neighbor.

I live in Canada & I feel the same, I work hard

to make ends meet and what do I have to show

for it at the end of the day. Unfortunataly governments

don't give a d**n about the working folks they

only care about the big multinationals as well as

their own fat paychecks. As far as made in USA

or Canada, I would love to see more products made

in north america. But once again the big companies

who use to make products here opted to farm out

most of the good jobs to China, Malaysia, Taiwan,

Mexico & so on. I try my best when I buy anything

to buy a product made in north america, if I can't

find somthing made here I would even settle for a

product made in Europe but they don't seem to

exist either.

I recall shopping for some tube socks in a local

retailer & I got so mad that I could not find a product

made in north america I said out loud to a store

clerk " Isn't anything made here anymore " to which

I got several dirty looks from other shoppers.

I don't know what the answer is but we will all

have to stick together and do something or Canada

& the U.S will end being third world countries.

I know big businesses use the excuse that labour

costs are too much here or that consumers are not

willing to pay the price for domestic made products.

I think that all BS becasue I would rather pay more

for a product & know that I'm helping my local

economy as well as keeping people here in

jobs rather that seeing the jobs go overseas.

Just look at the price of gas, over $4.00 a gallon

in the U.S & over $5.00 a gallon in Canada.

Were being screwed so bad by the oil companies

and nobody in government gives a d**n.

Why don't we use the oil we have in north america

and tell the arabs to keep it and the high prices.

Take care.
