If you think Greece is a mess, wait four years and America will make that look like Child's Play!! Some parts of america have exceeded that. There's plenty of footage on the net showing a comparison with Polish ghettos, i.e. man dying in the gutter cos he's black and got no money, while designer shoes & suits step over and walk on by. Update: there you go, Obama's on our news right now saying it doesn't matter who you are or what you look like, if you work hard you'll have a place in society. ......well, that assumes he's going to make it illegal for US companies to outsource. makes no difference rep or dem, these people all have one thing in common, they're all absolutely full of SH1T !

True, it's as if people have become so accustomed to the lies & BS they wouldn't trust a straight politician if ever there was one. What gets me is the shocking trend of outsourcing labour to places like China, this is rife both in the US and England. It's a real kick in the teeth for craftsmen and workers both sides of the atlantic. Of course I don't buy the old 'we can't compete' baloney....it's just an excuse for more greed. British craftsmanship is world renowned, so too american craftsmen, some damn fine machine tools and other engineering related products came from the US in her day. There is good things about the US which the world is going to miss, it's just rather ironic this globalism disease was born in the US. I suspect the good of america were sold down the river by the bad, now we're all paying the price. I can think of two pee-takers in particular who must be laughing at the rest of us, one of them is slightly a Brit.

Route 66.......(shame they messed up the highway numbers, but I'd love to do the entire original route especially through the mojave desert in/on something cruising at 100+)

here you go, here's the cause of all our grief, both LIARS, both WAR CRIMINALS, both MADE VAST PERSONAL FORTUNES out of two illegal wars, both PRESIDED OVER THE GREAT GLOBALISATION STITCH-UP. Because of these two criminals, hundreds of thousands of people are dead, millions in america and the UK are unemployed and without a future, and tens of thousands of children are being born with war related birth defects. Such was the perverse vision and criminal scheming by these two psychopaths, the rest of the world is facing a crisis from which possibly we'll never recover.

You forgot chips, but then again there's only a couple of places left in England that do them the proper way. Seriously, I wouldn't worry about Obama getting back in, times are going to get tougher just as they will for us over here regardless of who's in power. There is only one predictability....you're gonna get done over.

Out sourcing of jobs, whose fault??? How much is too much to pay someone to do a job?? especially when insane Union Contracts have increased wages astronomically, then throw in perks, Medical Insurance, retirement benefits. And want worked responsible for nothing but showing up for the job...Any job where a worker can effect the quality of function of a part, assembly of product, is unacceptable. Which lead to sophisticated machinery, into which raw data, basic material are inserted, and the highly paid worker simply Pushes a Button, and out pops a perfect product.. Of processes similar.. When some smart money folk discovered Chinese cheap labor and that those sophisticated could function just as well with a 15 cents an hour worker pushing the button, the jig was up. Throw in the packaging and shipping and the product was available at pennies on the dollar.. The Chink in the Armor of that scenario is that sooner of later those same cheaply created products eventually ran short of buyers, ie; people with a job, income and the ability to by things!!! The head of the American Labor force just became to cash top heavy...And crashed to the ground..oaama has simply pandered to them propping up the companies so cash starved trying to pay pension benefits, that they will never be viable in the market, with out Government cash..
