Yeah...but this country has been outsourcing jobs for 30 years now. I think everyone knows about it The question is, do the people who are profiting from it care? Are they even capable of caring? I honestly don't think so.

All it's done is give the people who already make stupid, ignorant comments a target at which to direct their next stupid, ignorant comment. More of the same- why don't you have a job? You must be lazy. You could be job-searcing right now instead of protesting. (Guess they never heard of iPhones and multi-tasking?) They need to shower, no wonder no one will hire them. And on and on.

The problem in this country is that we've lost our f***ing compassion. People are so busy judging each other and worrying that $5 more dollars a month might come out of their check for taxes that they can't see the forest for the trees. The American Dream is GOING AWAY- that's right, GOING AWAY. Our schools suck, our college graduates can't get jobs, people who are doing all the right things can't succeed. And when they dare to stand up and point this out, they get mocked. I guess as long as the American Dream isn't going away for YOUR kid, it's okay. Just don't count on much, with the economy and Karma!

I honestly haven't seen much coverage of the events because every time I try to watch something, I have to listen to some self-righteous a-hole berating these people, when they aren't slackers...there just aren't any jobs!!!
