Heres a horror story if I ever did see one.  http://www.salon.com/2013/06/21/goodwill_pays_workers_with_disabilities_as_little_as_22_cents_an_hour/.I saw this on tv last night.The big fat CEO of Goodwill said they were people who are happy enough to just be working for 22 cents an hour while he takes home over half a million dollars a year.I have no idea how he can sleep at night.

I also saw on the news last night that Apple and Google are trying to bring jobs back to America.Too little,too late and what if they pay only 22 cents an hour?Why not follow Goodwills example?If I hire someone to work around the house here I have to pay ten dollars an hour.Four hours becomes $40.00 that I have to pay someone.If I pay ten dollars at 22 cents an hour that would be 45.5 hours of work  I could get out of someone?Ten dollars is now a weeks pay here in the USA.Penn anyway.Once again I don't see how some people can sleep at night.

Heres a horror story...

I absolutely don't understand this story: if this is on American ground, those employees must be severely mental retarded to agree for such conditions. I am disabled from work after almost 30 years of continuous work, receiving over $1,500 every month from SS disability program (legally blind).

     You have got to understand that the stockholders lives are worth more an hour than the worker's lives.  While they sip overpriced coffee and web surf for trendy restaurants their slaves get a 10 minute break (maybe) to wolf down a cup of soup they made out of left overs from last nites chicken.   What empowers these pigs to get away with it is that they have a scheme going.  They have this thing called capitol.   Capitol allows a person to make money by just having money.  They have no wealth they just have money.  MONEY is not a measure of WEALTH.  Somehow the thing we use to exchange for time spent in the common good like driving a truck to deliver fuel to a gas station or planting a crop to feed people, generally speaking "bringing good things to life" was fucked with.   This is why there was an American Revolution.  The wealthy Americans gave the finger to the Bank of England and especially it's East India Trading Company.  The American Revolution was never won.  The wretched moneychangers still control the colonies.  Have controlled it since 1914 in it's latest run.  They have just chosen to invest (check out the origin of the word invest) in Chineese slave labor.  The industrialization of China has now taken farmers and put them in factories.  Who the fuck is going to produce the crops to feed these slaves?   Every nation that is below the Equator.  While the entire Northern Hemisphere is involved with catering to the special needs of the money changers,  the entire Southern Hemisphere is making food to feed the northern hemisphere slaves.  When a nation does not want to trade in money but wants to trade in it's own currency, that is based on production of that nation which contibutes to the common good of all humans involved,  they send in the thugs.  They used Hessians in the 18th century.  Now they use the soldiers in the North American colonies to subdue rebellions in their other colonies.  NATO.  North Atlantic Treaty Organization.  It was an organization created to make sure the colonies stay in line.  Including the one occupying a good portion of the North American Continent.

To Qwert,they use a loop hole for sheltered workshops.They do not have to pay the mininum wage to people in these programs.A person can make more than 22 cents an hour just by dumpster diving for cans.There are people so retarded that they can never live on their own.For a fat CEO to justify a 22 cent an hour job in the USA just enrages me.I don't care if its just one person making that little.Companies are supposed to be human too.Good will has 7000 to 8000 disabled working for them across the USA.
