It would appear that in our (USA) corporate lust to be a Globally dominant force or at least a major player in todays economic environment that we need to lower the American Standard of living and Way of Life (to match that of the Chinese, Indian and Mexican laborer)this is being accomplished thru wage reduction.

We've already lost millions of jobs to Chinese, Indian, Mexican concerns as well as our Corporation Off Shore re-settlement...

Our USA Government and Corporate mentality has sold the American worker down the drain and it continues...

When America's middle class and lower income groups reach 3rd World status, the Corporations will signal from the Hamptons and Wall Street that all is OK now...

Lowering the minimum wage or prohibiting its rise is just another means to an end...

Bottom line>>>>>>America is in trouble (on many levels) and you are well aware of that fact.

I don't believe there is an out as long as our Government indulges in Self Service and Cult of the Personality as it's primary goal...
