    I agree with the first statement. He just don't know when to stop or how to stop these situations.

    I'd like to see incentives for the manufacturing jobs that are being lost by the thousands, on what seems like a daily basis, to stay here in the USA. That would be a nice incetive based program. You know, like maybe balance the trade deficite.

    Why was it that America became a world power?

    Because of faith, right?

    where is this faith now...attitude etc..???

    Do you really believe at this moment that America could save any problems with the democrats in power?

    When you say faith, do you mean religion or loyalty?

    It you mean loyalty, I have none for the current politicians in office. They are all corporate whores letting our jobs and money go overseas.

    I talked about trade deficites and jobs. That's an american issue, not a partisen issue. My plan is to fire everyone in office and start with a new batch. If they fail, then pick a new batch in 4 years. I don't care who they are and what side of the line they are on. I want to see action.

    I will not be looking at little "D"s or "R"s when I vote.

    But it's hard to have faith in the voting system. I don't care what side of the line you are on, if you have faith in a paperless system, you are a moron.

    If no paper trail is ok, then stop getting reciepts when you make a pruchase and tell the banks and CC companies to just send a bill you will gladly pay blindly. But common sense tells me you won't stand for that. :rolleyes:

    The rich uncle in America is dead, I understand.
    But america was looked as Santa Clause - and someone has distracted that line, guess who or what???

    Faith can do sooooo much, whereas reason can do nothing.

    Do you have any reality to debate here? I indulged you once and even tried to steer you to a worthy topic. But you have really said nothing.

    Could you please make a point here. You have said nothing there that a reasonable person could even comprehend. :rolleyes:

    Revenue is not profit, noppid. I think you have a problem with your calculations.

    http://www.projectalevel.co.uk/business/revenue.htm

    You are confusing the two. Also, you do not calculate in employee expenses such as employer SS contributions, unemployment taxes and other costs of employees such as insurance, etc.

    On that earnings report it had a loss of $115 million. By doing your method, it'd lose $10,255,500,000 instead. I think they'd go bankrupt ;)

    Did you ever wonder what an American car, say GM or Ford would cost if you did not have unskilled labor paid more than CEO's of some companies?

    Pay should be commensurate with experience, not dictated by union thugs.
