oh no fuck my bads, he's right, yes, it's hard to believe but the dollar is rising against the pond, go figure.

hey rooster, get a clue (concerning your cig): you know that there was a mural of Lenin in the rockefeller center once :1orglaugh

A lot of americans wanted to become communists in the 30's, you gonna kill your grandpa? Be more concerned about all the dictators your government has placed in power over the years in South-America and Africa.

ciggy or sig

concerning the US economy: it will get worse, if this policy ain't stopped:

1. your selling your country by the low dollar, foreign companies will become richer and buy yours

2. your trade deficit with China is huge, cheap products coming in and unable to sell something in China, till now these were factory jobs, the US looses this way. But now a lot of companies, also from the States, are relocating their higher paid jobs their, why pay someone with a MBA so much money, if you can employ one in China for pennies.

3. on top of the deficit, your government loans heavily from China, yes from the bad communists (in my mind they're in no way communists, but hey that's my opinion), your paying double, they just lend you back the money you poured into their economy.

Sad that you have to lend fom countries as China

never dispute a scottish when it comes to money :-)

:1orglaugh

Still crossing my fingers for you guys: kick the English out of Scotland, glad you got the Stone of Scone back

I knew I was right. Thanks Soul. You know never to underestimate a Scotsman :Graucho

Dude we got almost all of em. Just those little fuckers who try to hide from us. We'll get them tho...... one by one :)

Oh and about the Stone. I only found out about all that when Jason from vidsvidsvids was here visiting us and we went to a castle and they told us all about it. Pretty interesting :)

What economy?:1orglaugh all manufacturing jobs are leaving as i type this,we don;t produce nothing of vaule...at some point the 'system' the have going will collaspe

all of you who think the GBP is falling against the USD ought to look again.

Enlighten me as to why??

yes and now the companies are relocating the "thinking" jobs also to China, man, the unemployment, please do remember that it was Bush's policy.

I thought the U.S$ was falling? 500 bil tends to do that.

There is no way to stop this. They should enforce this and do anything to facilitate export of low level jobs to china/mexico etc. This is what you call transformation. Give them the shit jobs, invest money in research/education/infrastructure etc. and build new high tech jobs.

Its gonna get worse when the real estate bubble finally pops like a zit

because you're wrong.

Not everyone has the capacities for those "high tech jobs".

High tech jobs? What High Tech jobs are you talking about? Allot of High Tech jobs are going to India and China.

Very recent news:

IBM to outsource 5,000 programmers to Asia

AMD ready to extend Indian outsourcing plans

http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=13168

Its the same here with High Tech jobs. God even the normal jobs are being outsourced.

My friend works for a bank in their call centre. He has been told he is possibly being put out of a job unless he wants to go to India to work. The call centre is being moved over there and they are looking for British people to go work out there.

One good thing about it is they will be rich in that country but they will also be given a paycut because of how cheap the cost of living is over there.
