Today in Human Geo we were talking about jobs going out of business because of people over in china are getting payed less and they can buy more product for less money. And then we were talking about how Twinkies went out of business and what kind of bankrupt they declared and they declared the kind of bankrupt where all the high paying union workers got payed first and then they would pay there dept and then they would give all the money that had left over to there workers. That's kind of rude because the factory workers are doing a lot more than just sitting in an office all day but they also should have taken the lower pay cut, so they could keep there jobs at least and not have to look for another job and most likely some of them probably wont even get a job because most of them probably wanted to retire at there last job and now that they have to look for a new job it's like ok you lost your job and now all your money too. It's just stupid that just because china will do our work for less money that gives them not right to move there company over to China we are american and we deserve to have a job if we have one we should have to work there for a few months and then leave because china took our job again again we are american. American jobs belong in america not over seas so some poor asain can take our job that's so rude and it makes me wonder what's it going to be like in the future is china going to end up taking every single job and this will become the  new china and americans will be wiped off the planet and then how are our kids going to deal with it if we have no jobs no money and if no money no food and if no food we all end up dieing because stupid china needs more AMERICAN JOBS. Don't they have jobs over there like chinese jobs. Then don't even get me started with the mexican's they have jobs don't they why dont they get a job in meico stop coming to America. America is for americans and the jobs here are meant for americans not for chinese people or mexicans for AMERICAN'S. In the future it's going super hard because of the econemy and jobs the government might not be able to do anything but we can and it needs to stop we need money too because of our stupid president (barack Obama). In the future were probably going to below the proverty rate and die because of food water money and shelter and JOBS FOR AMERICAN'S
