Maybe not considered third world but Mexico is actually a good example of auto worker vs auto worker.

"Do you think Masai herdsman in Africa should make the same amount of income as auto workers in TN?"

>>>There isn't a Republican anywhere who doesn't believe that an auto worker in Tennesse shouldn't be making as much money as a Masai herdsman.

How about autoworkers in the US compared to auto workers in a third world country?

How about telecom and computer tech people in the US compared to those who get the same work out sourced to them in India (very common now)?
If your gonna compare apples to apples then compare the cost of living in the US to the cost of living in those third world countries.

Do you actually think they should make the same? Do you give your money away to people who make less money than you out of fairness?

Besides, isn't it the Democratic base of the unions who are responsible for the auto workers high salaries and benefits?

I think you are a funny guy at times but to even imply that a Democrat such as myself does not like HIGH, HIGH quality is absurd. This came out when you lifted your left butt-cheek, huh? This is just such a dumb put-down to the left like the stuff that comes from Karl Rove's office. Even the 'liberal elite' is not even close to this, the people you very firm right guys like to take jabs at.

funny thing is the rich people have dumped off that responsibility on you. and they view you as a problem just as you view those that are less economically independent.

No the rich did not "dump" this problem on me. The lazy bums that refuse to work did. Not to mention the millions of illegals that are here lowering the pay in this country and taking welfare and free medical while not paying taxes.
I don't hate the rich for being rich and wanting to keep their money i balme the lazy and illegal for mooching and not following the laws.

do you know what its like to work @ burger king your whole life or sweeping somebodies floor? i know so many people that work and still get foodstamps...not just because they are lazy but because if they didn't get those "welfare" aids..they would be homeless regardless of the fact they work. so keep making those biased assumptions that everyone on welfare is not productive for society hell IM ON WELFARE..and i work for the department of transportation..go to college...im president of toastmasters @ my college...and i volunteer for habitat for humanity not because i sit there and hate the fact that the "bums don't have homes" i don't look at that i see displaced folks through major social moves made in the past..and i try to help provide for those that are less fortunate..all the while PAYING TAXES..and not whining about what others are doing..but more so looking for a way to make it better for people...so if you wanna blame somebody blame uncle sam.
