Detroit councilwoman to Obama: We voted for you, now bail us out

[Seshmeister]

It's a far cry from these days when most people in Detroit had a job to go to and were too busy making money to cause trouble.

Testifying at Nuremberg, convicted Hitler Youth leader Baldur von Schirach who, in his role as military governor of Vienna deported 65,000 Jews to camps in Poland, stated,

"The decisive anti-Semitic book I was reading and the book that influenced my comrades was [...] that book by Henry Ford, "The International Jew." I read it and became anti-Semitic. The book made a great influence on myself and my friends because we saw in Henry Ford the representative of success and also the representative of a progressive social policy."

Actually the modern Ford motor Company was the result of Henry Ford's son Edsel. Henry wanted to continue to sell the Model T way after it had become obsolete. It was Edsel that moved the company on beyond the Model T. Henry Ford's dislike of bankers and believing it was a jewish conspiracy has nothing to do with the topic of this thread. He designed a great car, got the price down to where the average person could afford it and grew a company that paid the workers twice what the competition paid and paid black people the same rate. The company also provided educational opportunities so employees could better themselves.

It wasn't just the Ford Motor Company providing jobs in Detroit.

Oh unions can be as greedy as the corporations. Most the time they just take people's money and have little to show for it.

"The unions" were just going by the contracts that were negotiated long ago. Detroit severaly impaired itself simply by designing bad cars, behind in the market place they thought they could control, and just being stupid. The unions didn't design the Chevy Vega or the Ford Pinto!

Ford was a conspiracist fool and was ideologically antisemitic (as opposed to racially). But I'd take whatever some Nazi douche, trying to save his skin, said with a grain of salt. Antisemitism was codified in Germany long before Ford...

You have no credibility. Now go check on the tacos, you have customers waiting.

Said the guy with 'roid rage who's currently BURNING THE FRIES. Idiot.

No that'd be YOU, dimwit - and you just proved it by repeating a tired old lie, like the brain-dead douchebag you are. Again, who do you work for? Who do you write for? Who's approached YOU to test their products, or help work out their recording software issues? That's what I thought, asshole. Any time you wanna compare resumes, throw down. Til then - Fuck off.
