- December 21, 2010, 19:14:40 PMIf we're lucky, we've all invested in mutual funds by way of picking our retirement funding. In so doing we all looked for constant growth. Starting back when pensions started ending and 401K's took over, we all wanted growth. If our stocks didn't grow, we went to ones that did and eventually we forced companies to find cheaper labor or go under.
We created this and it's all greed.
Everyone's still worried when GROWTH will start up again and feed more of this mentality. Companies shop new countries all the time, trying to find the new, cheap source of labor and no EPA to bugger up the works.
Who's responsible for 9.5% unemployment: us.

Harley has just opened a plant in India... wonder how that "mystic" thing is gonna work there?

You can never have too many beers in the fridge.
Merry Christmas.
