Going Global

It is over, it is done.
There is no light at the end
of this tunnel my son.
Politicians lies won't stop this one.
The demise of the American Capitalist
System has already begun.
The motivating force
is profits of course.
Once the American manufacturers
realized they could manufacture
products cheaper in Mexico, South
America and China they no longer needed the
services of the unionized American workers
of California, Texas and South Carolina.
When President Bush tells you more jobs
will be created than lost its all hogwash.
Businesses in foreign countries mean
less government regulations,  they offer
locations without excessive taxation.
Say goodbye to our capitalist nation.
We've become a product of globalization.

A politician thinks of the next election; a statesman, of the next generation.


unfortunately -- there are no statesmen for sale anywhere these days

Thanks for reading and commenting Local Rebel...
there used to be a time when American Companies cared about the state of America and the citizens of America...now all they care about are profits, less regulations and paying less taxes...I know they have to compete, but why screw America in the process...James
