SoCal Dave Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I didn't hear anything negative about government bailouts, or assistance in the piece, even though they had some to help getting through these tuff times. And, the one most important thing was they're commitment to keep people working, even when times were tuff. It's not like that here in the USA. Here, we keep the Chiefs and get ride of the firemen. And our companies outsource jobs to other countries. We need an apprentice program starting in High Schools for vocational training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
