1. Where are those numbers from?
2. What are the employment rates? (What good are high paying jobs if no one can get work?)
3. What are the wages relative to the cost of living?
4. What exactly do you mean by "better working conditions"? | I believe exactly what limey is saying, I just do not believe that it makes it right. Those numbers seem completely believable to me. However that's like rescuing a kid whose parents abuse him severely, putting out cigarettes on his skin, and boasting how much better you treat him because all you do is occassionally slap him around a bit for no particular reason. It's still maltreatment, it's just slightly better mal treatment, and the improvement does not make it ok. | Good point. That is what I was trying to figure out. Who cares if they make more than average if that is still not enough? When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
