I'm not here to pick a fight with anyone. I'm not here to support any political position or party. I am just one vote when it comes down to it and that is all I am worth in our society.
The term "Joe the plumber" is in frequent use as of recent days. Since there is a US Presidential election campaign going on I often watch with equal interest and sometimes pure disgust.
My thought about "Joe" is simply who is it that represents your interests Joe? You are just American labor. I am just American labor.
It seems that for some time the interests of bankers and independent investors have been the interests of preference here in the US. Certainly not the interests of American labor.
To me, when it comes down to it, we are almost all labor of sorts. If you don't own the company, even if you are management, you are still labor.
The time to eat American labor alive has not just come, it appeared quite a while ago. Maybe when Regan fired all of the air traffic controllers, I don't know just when it came in vogue exactly. But I don't mean to be political here. I mentioned Regan merely as a road marker.
We all need jobs, but just not any job. High paying jobs that produce high quality products. I am often surprized to hear that so many Americans are just realizing that now. We all can't be bankers folks. Some of us have to produce the goods.
High quality labor here is not part of the problem, it's part of the solution.
The bankers have had their run. Perhaps it is time for the pendulum to swing back and the American people will once again look for and feel proud once again to read the label, MADE IN THE USA.
I for one understand and appreciate exactly what that label means. Hopefully others will also before it is too late.
