the average american worker is now expected to work harder and faster than ever before. he works much longer hours now- he must sacrifice his quality of life- to try to please the corporation hoping- to just- keep his job. his benefits are dwinding- he pays much more for insurance and deductables now- for less coverage- eating at his paycheck. his stress related illness- cause him frequent dr visits. he watches the corporate profits and top executives share go higher and higher. the few luxary items- his hard work - earned him in the past- are denied him now- - not within his budget- besides- he knows he could lose his job tomorrow- they could send his job to - china- etc- if he isnt fast enough- they tell him that- often enough.<br> <br> there is something -terribly wrong here. compare us with other countries- who you say make better products- you may find happier- fairly treated human beings- in those non- third world countries- we like to think we are better than- <br> its not all - progress- and the workers need to change- the worker is willing to change- but wants to earn a living wage- so how much does the top get to keep- before we get to call it - corporate greed.

This week's poll
The high cost of jet fuel has a lot of people staying at home this summer instead of traveling. Is there a "staycation" in your immediate future?
Yes, I just can't afford a plane ticket and/or hotel room right now.
No, I've saved up all year just to get away for a bit.
Maybe, I have to wait and see how my finances pan out.
