U.S. going toward elite supremacy from Mexico and U.S.
I am saving my money as much as I can right now. I see this country basically becoming communist allready. Bush is wanting for us to have two social classes- rich and poor. On Lou Dobbs friday night, his substitute gave us good look at the new jobs he claims have been created. Of course it was softened by saying jobs have only increased among college/high school students and blacks and minorities. I am sorry, but here in Mass, at the Pizzeria Uno I worked at, the only blacks I saw were either brazillian, dominican, cape verdian or haitian. All most of those low end employers will accept a passport as i.d. or legal verification and don't even check
