I would say our lazy is also pampered compared to most of the world wouldn't you agree?

Who is "they"? The government doesn't have the power to send jobs overseas. Companies do that.
Why do you think companies take there business overseas? The government certainly plays a roll behind the reasoning don't you think?

Good point. Jobs would stay in US if companies weren't so regulated and it was easier to start a company.
Hell, we haven't built an oil refinery in the US since the 1970s because of regulations. So not only do we buy oil from other countries, they also refine it too. Stupid.

He's said all kinds of shite like this in the past. Now that the spot light is on him again, he says the same BS. I respect the guy for the player he was and what he went through, but it just shows that should be where my respect stops.

To a degree, maybe...but the bottom line is what companies look at. Costs. If we keep raising wages to unsustainable heights it causes problems. Companies will always chase the profit. They have to. Major comapanies answer to stock holders, and stock holders demand profits so stock prices go higher and dividends are paid. When wages rise, prices must rise to keep profits up.
I agree that politicians think about one thing and one thing only....getting reelected. they are not looking after anyones best interest except their own....I don't care if they are Republican or Democrat.
Lastly, Obama has not been treated any differently than Bush or Clinton. They were fought against every step of the way by the opposing party and followed blindly by their own party. Politics have gotten so partisan and blind that we are headed for severe problems.
