And after I know what is going on and what it all means, I can turn to an in depth analysis from some show and then get an opinion from someone like O'Reilly or Lou Dobbs O'Reilly is just a host with a show that breeds controversy - why else would they replace "Misfiring" Malkin with Laura Ingraham(maintaining an "undesirable" in that slot), or encourage people to spam a perceived adversary? Think of him as a troll with a pulpit and a willing/obedient audience.
Lou Dobbs is someone who channels the voice of the displaced. While he gets labeled "economically inaccurate" or "xenophobic", he presents the problems as part of a larger issue. Yes, I know his show is opinion, but it is defined more than "do absolutely whatever to get ratings".
If you don't mind wading in pure vitriol, O'Reilly and his sidekick will provide it(by the ton). If you [still] wonder why it's being worse off to be a US Citizen, then Lou Dobbs might do.
When did the Republicans becomes Fascists? Right after Ronald Reagan took office (for the set of ones you know of now). The Nixon presidency was only training.
a Huckabee presidency will will bring a theocracy You're forgetting that the Club for Growth will become "Club for Huckabashing" moreso than it already is.
An additional benefit is that it has a rather sobering effect on local know-it-all's when they see that their work is in fact inferior to what we can get from a third world sourcing partner. Exception, not rule. The locals will end up cleaning after the large amounts of mistakes.
It has a disciplining effect on the entire organization since the punishment for immaturity is harsh and tangible.
After this sort of ego bruising they are more ready to accept modern and mature practices. Play $DEITY somewhere else, not with workers. If one has to add fear (by offshoring) over their heads to drive a point, something is terribly wrong.
You're part of what makes people hate offshoring, you use it for fear, and not productivity.
Given the record of cars that small in the US(Geo Metro, Daewoo, Yugo), it isn't going to be flying off our highways or embedding itself into other cars anytime soon.
More demand for oil = higher gas prices = more effort in the US to get off of oil (I would hope) No, it's more of getting rid of the speculators and/or their tendency to get jittery, possibly followed by war to control the region.
No, they're an example of why we keep worker protections in place. Yes, thuggery happens on both sides, but business owner doesn't mean demigod. Unfortunately, the 1980's turned the US the wrong way around.
We certainly don't need special protection for morons be they employer or employee. Are we really suppose to have sympathy for morons who don't know what they put on the net is public? If you do something in public in your own time, it can and will affect your employment and is of concern to your employer. Unfortunately, not all are lucky enough to be able to shape their own progress(with any practicality). There's a difference between someone posting of their off-hours activities and businesses looking for something to can someone by. The latter is an intrusion by the employer full stop. Allowing this kind of stuff to happen just makes for office politics in the bad kind.
You don't deserve squat -- that's why you get nothing but money for your time. You work is appreciated, but the intelectual property isn't yours, and the risk wasn't yours, and the value-rewards won't be yours. The clients aren't yours, the company isn't yours. There's an enormous risk in starting your own business, and it's a gigantic under-taking to maintain any business. Being a cog in the machine is worth the grease, and little more. But that does not justify lording over employees for any reason in any condition. They're the ones that make your work possible, and deserve the utmost respect for their work. Infighting and disregard for morale negatively affect your product. Play God somewhere else where it won't affect anybody.
In the absence of strong protections for employees Thanks to Reagan, and Taft-Hartley, are there any meaningful protections left that havent been destroyed by succeeding administrations?
(No, Austrian style "economics" do not count, as the employer has the upper hand, and mobility is not universal)
When manufacturing got driven out of here by globalization, our main industry (of the remaining residents unable to leave) is now shifted to corruption. The next following is cleaning out mistakes left by Reagan. This isn't a surprise.
This video is tipped to be most popular in 2008, with over 6 million hits in three days [dwarfurl.com][youtube.com] Stuff like that needs a nice swift addition to the lameness filter.
I sold some online products (gaming gold) on Ebay back before Ebay had completely banned it for all games etc... You got what you deserved for doing something that most likely violated the agreement the game has with RMT. When a complaint comes as admission of a bannable offense and the facilitator (Ebay+Paypal) has a bad reputation, bad things will happen.
Encouraging item inflation via a moral hazard just is something that looks for trouble.
Americans were so much better off with Reagan than they would have been under Thatcher. That's a matter of counting a worst of two evils - they both wrecked their own nations to "save" them.
And Bush vs Blair One was the puppet master of another's foreign policy.
By the looks of this source(and those whom they link towards), there seems to be no real way they're going to object as they have not in previous times. It seems they'd have no problem with abusing this position to throw someone in jail that objected to this - Qwest for example.
You might as well read any of the other linked blogs and see one voice, one opinion, no room for dissent towards the administration.
That's also why their invite system will cause them more failure as long as it is in place - their attempt to split the public out to E for All failed. Just sounds like a loss-cutting move that went horribly wrong.

There goes the quality for that brand. That was one thing that was done right, and done well in the UK.
Build Quality, or the lack thereof in its construction.
It'll be a serious contender when it loses its cheapness, and not just something with a lot of hype around it.
Sell it and get a proper notebook, such as a Thinkpad. The build quality there isnt that bad.

Diebold would have prior patents on that. That already happened, twice.

Sounds like someone believes in temperature wraparound.
Not if we start using nuclear power again.

Time to raise the penalties for violations - and close off any foreign country escape route from this regulation.
