I think and at least HOPE systematically that is a more isolated event than what I read about 70K riots in china last year. If that becomes the norm then no I will not think they are better than chinese government oppression and lack of basic respect for basic rights.

El Mat I have been posting over on Mish Thread about wage floors, Herbert Hooever wage floors in the depression, rights of women and children in supreme court in the depression, companies like wal mart begging for minimum wage - etc etc

Rosa parks just Died - she big over here for basic human rights - I remember her spirit in this post.

Here is last message but you can follow it back to beginning message

One of my first papers in college was about wage floors - has been serious interest of mine since that time - Bernanke and Rothbard both study wage floors too and i HOPE - boy do i HOPE bernanke bring some reason to crazy policies in USA against free/fair markets and not go wal mart route and start bringing more gubbment into prices and wages.

Good friends of mine in last city run international house where they house many mexican boys and work them basically FREE (illegal)- but boys do get food and learn skill and good lessons and not sit home and play DOOM ALL day like General Chen playing deathmatch - hehe - I try to play them doom some, make them watch star trek so they learn good morals like spock and kirk teach and get them interested in science - and employ them in my business too. I should not say MAKE them watch - I turn it on - if they like it we all watch it - if not - well we turn on stargate - I try to get them to come here and read you and general too - but many seem to rather play yahoo pool.

My previous posts go into more detail in those areas - specifically your amsterdam reference - that disturbs me if your take is true - because I always think those people so easy going there - and if they getting upset enough to get up and go do something and BURN baby BURN and not toke another blunt - that very sad.

Especially drug dealers - I thought they like the drug dealers that bring in feel good substance to use at the cafes? It makes no sense to me!!

What are the child labor laws there like? Over here me and several econ professors think if children allowed to work in the local city I used to live - at the grocery store bagging, at the field picking fruit, at the house driving nails - things that children are completely capable of and can give them sense of real PRIDE unlike blowing up chen in deathmatch online - that community would VALUE thier future more than foreign worker who they will bring in - use up - then toss away like used dish rag. El Mat you cant imagine the number of kids from all over I meet on yahoo chess - yahoo pool - games.com monopoly - various other games and chat boards that are just bored kids that play general chen on deathmatch and have no sense of use or purpose to society and so ready to committ suicide when chen blow them away in deathmatch.

They could be put to europe working maybe to UPGRADE building with REBAR and such and IMPROVE the buildings before earthquake come and tear it all down eh?

See I visit mexico last year, 9 year old working in grocery store - you not see that in USA. You know what - you just make me remember event that happen earlier tonight I had put out of my mind.

Went to local asian fusion restaurant - Chef Wang at Zen Forrest - he make great thai food - I have curry shrimp and sake - boy my stomach hurting now - I have to get some chen popcorn and prune juice good-la - but anyways - he have girl there that his waitress and hostess - she used to have to bring in her very young daughter who sit in back room of kitchen and read books mostly - well I overheard Chef Wang say he not like that - so he tell her not to bring in kid anymore - she getting in the way of his KITCHEN! WTF? So girl basically say she gonna quit - why not chef wang make USE of girl and EMPLOY her to help for very cheap or even FREE? Because of stupid labor laws in USA.

You know I have idea about coming trend - I went to oktoberfest in St Pete Fla Area few weekends back - there was this old ice cream shop near the beach - I went in - old owners were gone - new owner was single hispanic woman who had 2 kids working in the shop - I said what happen to old owners - she said they couldnt make it (I know why - they had 2 18 year olds they were paying minimum wage paychecks too - this woman had 2 free workers basically in her kids)

For nations to grow - economies to grow - populace grows - however I read article on pkarchive that we are not having the INNOVATION we had as far as new major discoveries per capita since the 1600's - we are in decline going into the DARK AGES as far as innovation goes - Population growth charts show that when you get advanced enough you stop having babies - poor people still have babies though. But still I think the overall trends is we will never have the population growth levels we have had the past 50 years - so it only follows that innovation will slow even more as population units slow and possibly decline - so things slow down, less productive work for people to do, more boredom, and I already post the Monkey Story narrated by Raul Julia from south america - do you know it? We get so lazy and bored - we make machines to do all the work and thinking for us - it is happening now - what is REAL Neo?

Jay collect DVD movies in cyclones - soylent green maybe be good - humans gonna be the biggest source of protein in the future no? What is that picture where snake eats its own tail? Another good one is Midnight Express - I love Vangelis - he make excellent music for that movie - he greek like socrates. That go along with your just posted Italy article. Why do you think there are not more muslims immigrating to CHINA - no tolerance there maybe? They beat up thier own - no problem killing foreigner - I remember monty python guy over there doing travel channel special - sheesh - monty python guy not even get a laugh out of CCP guys - and he so damn funny.

demanding land and water rights as well as education and low-cost credits.

You just post this about Brazil - I already show you in palm beach fla - where don trump have country golf club - richest city in the world - people starve for water too - you better slap those people upside the head and say if he not gonna take care of rich friends in palm beach and thier people that cut the grass and wash the car - why they think he gonna do squat for them - Jeb Bush come on TV and say dumb hispanics - we showed you what happen in NAWLINS - why you dumbies not go buy some water? BWAHAHA! Too funny!

You say you disagree with me and what I think DEBTOR class about to get free ride from bernanke - why?

I read Hayek - he made quote I think about democracy getting the lowest common denominator leader - I agree - My political science professor tell me many years ago benevelont dictatorship the best way.
