The middle class squeeze is on
Don't believe me?

Has anyone even thought to figure out just who BCG is? Well I did and it turns out that they themselves are an international firm with offices world wide.

No wonder they are advising for more off-shoring. They have no vested interest in the US other then as job source for the rest of the world.

Then I read in the LA Times about the report from the Pew Hispanic Center detailing how almost 1/3 (%28) of the 1.3 million new jobs went to non-citizens for flat or lower wages.

Check it out at:

In the immortal words of Kojac (Telly Savalas) "Who loves you baby?" Certainly not our own government or our own businesses that's for sure.

All big businesses want is a cheap labor force but what they don't seem to realize that that cheap labor force is also their customer base.
