but anyway... this has gone far beyond being off topic.
newflash revisited ... this country was the last to give up the institution of slavery. Thats how we went from a rural agricultural society to an industrial leader in the 18th and 19th centuries. We were caught up with the other "advanced" nations, and in most cases, were better off. Those few centuries are what made America strong ... as it would with any corporation. You make all the money if you dont have to pay the employees. Your blatant ignorance in this really frightens me. It makes me wonder what you were taught in school, all those tax dollars .... *sigh*
