Our evil corrupt government leaders both Republicans and Democrats sold our country out by trading our jobs for favors like campaign contributions (bribes and kickbacks) from all the million / billion dollar companies and corporations. All the lobbyists (corporate lawyers who represent these companies) were able to bribe congress with enough money that they have lifted all restrictions on outsourcing and opened the door to the total destruction of our economy. Just as an added bonus, our fucked beyond belief government gave them tax breaks for outsourcing our jobs.
Some fools say “don’t blame the government, blame the rich greedy corporations for outsourcing all our jobs”. Sorry but the government’s job is to protect the interests of all the people of our country, not just the filthy rich. And to keep the economy going strong not destroy it just to pocket a few extra bucks.
Let me put in perspective, if you hired a security guard (government) to protect all your valuables while you went on vacation and when you returned all your stuff has been stolen by thieves (corporations). The guard tells you sorry but the thieves gave him even more money to allow them to steal your stuff. He even helped them carry your stuff and put it in their truck. To top it off he says he’s going to keep the money you paid him to protect your stuff and there’s nothing you can do about it.
This is exactly what our government has done to us. You might say then what about all the lost revenue. If so many people are out of work then how is the government paying the bills? Simply by continuing to borrow money from countries like China. This is why the country is something like 9 Trillion dollars in debt. Our government leader’s laugh and say “we don’t care” They know their enormous pay and million dollar pensions are guaranteed. Even if half the country become unemployed they will just continue to borrow and borrow and vote themselves huge raises while the rest of the country goes broke. Soon China and other countries will own us so ready to hand over all your possessions to pay the debt.
