Niinpä niin, saatiin halpaa työvoimaa

MoCo kiristää myös Kansas Cityn tehdastaan (duunareita) kuten tapahtui Milwaukeessakin. Tässä eräs hyvin tuohtunut kommentti:

Not so long ago there was a myth that the United States held a special place among all nations and Kansas City was at the center of a country that led the world by example with freedom and bold ideas . . . Currently, Kansas City workers are being smacked around by the corporate leadership of Harley-Davidson as they get ready to start building motorcycles in India with the blessing of President Obama.

So let's get this straight . . .

HARLEY BIKERS CAN SUCK IT BECAUSE THEIR BIKES ARE NOW NOTHING MORE THAN A REPRESENTATION OF CORPORATE GREED THAT HAS COME AT THE EXPENSE OF KANSAS CITY WORKERS!!!

Your Harley means NOTHING now . . It's not an icon, it's not a status symbol. A Harley is now nothing more than a toy.

While images of Marisa Miller riding a Harley might still captivate my imagination . . . I recognize the marketing ploy . . . In much the same way that the Tea Party will be forced to sell out their principles if they want to remain in power for any serious length of time. Somehow it's fitting that the grand sellout of Harley-Davidson started in Kansas City.

To wit, this latest installment in the ongoing story of the decline of the American economy has inspired tonight's playlist.
