We Don’t Need any Stinking Jobs US Workers have been Sold Out.

The United States imported more than $941
billion from APEC countries in 2004, and that
number is only expected to accelerate as the
American economy grows and demand for high quality,
low-cost goods increases. (except we are now in a near Depression).

Until recently, moving containers through Mexico
wasn’t a competitive option for shippers, as
Mexican customs charged a “through bond” of up
to $100,000 per-container for shipments passing
through Mexican territory. The new rules allow
shippers to move as many containers as they like
for a single $55,000 bond. These savings could
make shipping containers through Lazaro
Cardenas up to 15 percent less expensive than
through Long Beach or Los Angeles. (Cut out those pesky US Workers)

Bush Administration Quietly Plans NAFTA Super Highway

A good reason Bush does not want to secure the border with Mexico may be that the administration is trying to create express lanes for Mexican trucks to bring containers with cheap Far East goods into the heart of the U.S., all without the involvement of any U.S. union workers on the docks or in the trucks.

4. It’s Freaken Amazing

It’s Freaken Amazing how many people have been busy in the last 12 years, Republicans owning the House and Senate and then implementing all this in the last 8 years of Bush.

Just think if China decided to attack, they have the ports, a army of people, poison all the crap they sell and it should be over in about 6 months. You better get out your Spanish to English to Chinese dictionary.

It’s a good thing we have a President that doesn’t have much on his plate already!

6. The bottom line

When free market capitalism no longer works for the workers, then the workers have no reason not to knock it over and replace it with something else.

And in my conversations with right wing friends, it is clear they have no clear way forward for the working man in mind. "Well," they say, "no one has come up with anything better." Heads often explode when I point out that does not imply that something better cannot be contrived.

I consider my Marx, from the viewpoint of a rather committed anti-communist ... this disturbing thought crosses my mind. Perhaps he was right after all. One thing is certain ... things will not remain long as they are. High energy technology civilization is frightfully fragile, and cannot long endure the resentment of an abandoned working class.
