• Let me guess. You're a banker.

• Not a banker, far from it. I happen to be someone who HAD a job and worked my way through that college thing myself. It would be a good thing if more people had to do that, so indeed a higher education would also be a hard and intractable lesson in personal responsibility. There would be far fewer entitled liberals that way, too.

• As opposed to what? Silver spoon Conservatives exporting American jobs overseas?
  
  Well guess what, this liberal dude worked his way through college as well. Unlike you, I chose a career that will keep me employed.

• I suggest you throw away your computer, given it was made offshore. Roll your total wardrobe back to no more than 4 changes each of casual and work clothes, as people had to do when selection was limited to expensive domestically manufactured fabrics and products. Throw away any and all big-screen TVs and fork over $350 for a 14" black-and-white, the inflation-adjusted equivalent of what you could buy, made in USA by Motorola, in 1973. Drag your car to the shop and leave it there at least 2 days a month, as we all had to do when there was nothing to buy except what was slapped together by UAW labor at 17 1976 dollars per hour (over $58 in 2010 currency). After 2 years, throw your money away again, since the underbody was already rusting out by then.
  If you are actually BUYING products that are made cheaper and more plentfully by overseas labor then you are exploiting the situation and partly at fault for USA job losses. If you use mass-produced microprocessor technology similarly made possible by cheap overseas labor, you are again at fault. If you are enjoying the more reliable ride that even Government Motors had to make, as forced by overseas competition, then you are enjoying the fruits of globalization.
  You and Obama. Always pointing fingers.

• And you Bu$hlusters never blamed anyone?
  
  General Motors could've competed, if we had National Healthcare like EVERY other industrialised nation.
  
  Underbodies rust out because doofusses like to use salt on the road as opposed to simply slowing down.
  
  I put my computer together myself thank you very much.
  
  You could always complain to the Marines, but the problem being that you'd end up getting ahold of the Complaint Department that has been relocated to Dubai, staffed by Pakistanis with a bare English background.
  
  Hope those Corporate Quarterly profits are doing you and your Republicans good at their third home in the Hamptons!
