Hello, nice to se you too

I agree - it is rather sad - that after little more than 100 years - we are looking at the same problems our great-grandparents had to face when they was little - more or less slave labor - where even children have to work hard and long hours to just get by.. I think our great-grandparents would have a few words for us - if they had known how bad things really are in parts of the world - and that the powers to be - want it to be that again for most pepole... But then again - thats what you get, when you do not support your local union - or for that matter work together - to fight the ones who want to destroy everything resembling "socialism" in the world....

Free-trade agreements is just another way to say - Screw the working class - the wealthy will get the benefits - the working class get the screw.... Basically it is the result of free-trade agreement....
