ADDENDUM - Corporo-Business Mindset - Next Gen CEO's To Be More Ruthless Than Present CEO's [View all]

In late February 2011 45 international CEO's met in Denver for a symposium. George Bush spoke at that convention. The theme of the symposium was "Faster, Cheaper More Profitable Business". The Denver Post had a small article about this meeting.

What was so notable about this meeting was that Bush was the main speaker and that it was INTERNATIONAL. It was also a forum meant to train a new CEO class that will be more ruthless and cost cutting the the present generation. And the meeting was about ending unions and labor law on an international scale.

Unless you have been in the labor arena like I was for 24 years, as a worker it is hard to understand or see what is going on for two reasons. One is the MSM is hiding what is going on. Secondly, workers here and across the world are being lied to about the true consequences of globalization.

Everything planned is about eliminating employment and employment rights and creating an environment of economic supremacy here and abroad. Our own billionaires are also in on the deal and are primarily the sponsors of this hidden economic agenda. The core of all these international trade agreements is to have weak or nonexistent labor protections.

Look at the situation in the labor market like the game of musical chairs. The CEO and international corporate class are about removing jobs and making the rest starvation employment. Jobs are like removing the chairs leaving more and more desperate workers pursuing those same chairs.

The "austerity game" is all about creating desperation. Think of yourself like the passengers on that cruise ship desperate to get off. The GOP is complicit in this game and "do nothing" to create so much desperation that we will elect them as they claim the Democrats are ineffective.
