Watching his speech in Abington, VA...he's nuts! He "believes" in everything. He "believes" we need to dig up and burn that coal, in a clean way. He believes all sorts of stuff. But he really believes NOTHING. He only believes that he wants this job, really, really bad. And he'll say anything to get it.

(13,776 posts)When I was back in my private equity days, we went to China to buy a factory there. It employed about 20,000 people. And they were almost all young women between the ages of about 18 and 22 or 23. They were saving for potentially becoming married. And they work in these huge factories, they made various uh, small appliances. And uh, as we were walking through this facility, seeing them work, the number of hours they worked per day, the pittance they earned, living in dormitories with uh, with little bathrooms at the end of maybe 10, 10 room, rooms. And the rooms they have 12 girls per room. Three bunk beds on top of each other. Youve seen, youve seen them? (Oh
yeah, yeah!) And, and, and around this factory was a fence, a huge fence with barbed wire and guard towers. And, and, we said gosh! I cant believe that you, you know, keep these girls in! They said, no, no, no. This is to keep other people from coming in. Because people want so badly to come work in this factory that we have to keep them out.

Factory workers made 24 cents an hour in 1998 and less than $2 a day. Wages in Global-Tech were less than 2 percent of U.S. wages.

Overcrowded, filthy dormitories; rotten food; routine 15- to 16-hour shifts; and backbreaking 105- to 112-hour, seven-day workweeks are the norm.
The appliance factory has 800 student interns 16-years-olds forced to work repetitive, exhausting 15- to 16-hour shifts on assembly lines with no overtime pay.

Someone this gullible really should automatically be ineligible to be president.

(34,661 posts)sociopath,along with a immersion of Mormon Missionary training,and you come up with a person that has a personality disorder. Is he by Polar? Scary watching clips of the past debate. Notice someone answered my inquiry as to Willard's debate style,using Guis Gallop in a Presidential debate is really bush league. Tells you the type of real individual Willard is. Read some where,that is type of debate tactic was a Rove specialty. Reminds one of a Frat Boy prank.
