I mean that in the sense of being lured in by the false promise that with the RW plan everything will be wonderful, but once they are in, and the doors behind them locked, the evil side begins to emerge. No offense intended.

I have great sympathy for those who are in dire need of good jobs. I realize they are in a difficult and vulnerable position. I want them to see that the RW does not care about them, but how can we get them to "our" side when the RW is luring them with jobs? Sure they may get a job. And in the meantime our environment is being destroyed, their children's education funding is being drastically cut, health care and benefits, et al. I am just musing on all this right now... not meaning to be offensive.
