Quothe Tillman, Edward, from writings of Tue, Aug 05, 2003 at 09:47:30PM -0500: That's not doing any of us any good over here who were put out of work by cheap foreign labor and greedy management droids seeking bigger bonuses for making shareholders very happy. Free trade has gone too far. What we need is for all non-management employees working as programmers, web site designers, etc., who are U.S. citizens, to go on strike---while also demanding time-and-a-half back pay in order to resume work when the strike is over. This would be all the more effective if those working for the government doing defense work that can't be turned over to the foreigners go on strike as well. That's one way to make 'droids and politicians feel some heat for the problems they've caused. Ok, it will probably never happen, but it's neat to think about. -- Copyright (C) 2003 R. D.
