WHY CHINESE ARE KICKING AMERICA'S BUTT

By: Hal Turner
September 18, 2005 8:56 AM

From Industry to electronics, jobs are being taken from America and sent to China. Folks seem to think this is happening simply because "evil" corporations want to hire really cheap Chinese labor so as to increase their profits.

That is one reason, but not the MAIN reason.

The pictures - especially of the University of Colorado class - are very revealing - and flesh out some troubling facts about the demise of any kind of intellectual atmosphere at many large U.S. university "party schools" ...

igotthisguitar...you can't really be claiming that site you linked to as a legitimate source, can you? Man, that guy is a bit scary...and as for the comments... Evil or Very Mad
It kind of puts any ill feeling that Koreans may show to us in perspective (or maybe not..)

If you think that's bad, you should see how much China kicks my home country of Canada's ass in just about everything except exporting workers to Korea.

That whole site is one eye-opener....headlines such as..


Quote:
WHITE GIRL GANG RAPED!
FOURTEEN MEXICAN "FARM WORKERS" TOOK GIRL FROM HER HOME AND GANG RAPED HER FOR HOURS!
SAVAGE SPICS UNDER ARREST!
These Mexican mongrels ought to be physically siezed from the jail and be LYNCHED. Their home should be attacked and burnt to the ground.


Quote:
DEMOCRATS CALL FOR KATRINA AID TO ILLEGAL ALIENS!
Senators Clinton, Corzine and others demand HALT to deportation proceedings against any ILLEGAL ALIENS captured as result of hurricane!
These political PIGS should be "confronted" on the campaign trail
In my opinion, their disloyalty to the law-abiding, tax-paying citizens of the United States makes them worthy of being killed.


Quote:
MUSLIM HOLY MONTH OF "RAMADAN" STARTS OCT 4; SO MIGHT THEIR "RAMADAN OFFENSIVE"
AUTHOR SAYS SUITCASE NUKES ALREADY INSIDE U.S. WILL BE DETONATED IN SEVEN U.S. CITIES
Describes Al-Qaida plannning a "nuclear hell storm" during Ramadan.


Quote:
U.S. ARMY MISSES RECRUITING GOALS BY WIDE MARGIN - AGAIN
ARMY RESERVE AND NATIONAL GUARD REPORT EVEN WORSE RECRUITING RESULTS
So-called "wars" in Iraq and Afghanistan wake up young to realities of military service. I just hope parents wake up to the truth: These "wars" are not for U.S. security, but rather security for that heretic "state" of Israel.


Quote:
1 DEAD; 3 OTHERS STABBED AS SAVAGE NEGRO BEASTS "RUMBLE" AT NYC SCHOOL
Neighborhood "Shocked" at violence
Why are they shocked? This is just one more case of negroes acting like negroes


Quote:
REMEMBER THAT BUSLOAD OF SENIOR CITIZENS WHO BURNED TO DEATH WHILE EVACUATING HURRICANE RITA?
TURNS OUT THE DRIVER OF THE BUS WAS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN!
Maybe if he was here legally, he could have been properly trained and would have operated the bus in a manner that didn;t cause the fire! Once again, ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION is tied the the deaths of American citizens


I think he doesn't like foreigners, blacks or jews very much....is he KKK??

When IGTG uses "The Chinese" in his subject header, is he talking about the ethnicity or the nationality?

I'm asking because I want to know whether or not Chinese-Americans are kicking their own butts...

There is definately a breakdown in the education system in this country at all levels. My belief is that it stems from the liberal idea to reward failure. You take away standards and lower expectations as to not "hurt the childs feelings" or "make them feel pressured" etc. If a child guesses an answer and it's wrong, well, it's not really wrong, it's a 'good guess'. It might seem a trivial thing, but it's just the tip of the iceberg.

People that actually want to ban scores during sporting events so that there are no losers. Or schools that have banned using red ink to mark errors on assignments because it's deemed negative. They use purple ink because it's happier. It literally makes me naseaous.

My girlfriend is a teacher at the local highschool and deals with this everyday. Parents complaining that she's too harsh on students because she expects them to show up, do the work and behave like young adults rather then two-year olds.

A good friend of mine works in some sort of administrative capacity at Mizzou here in Missouri and one of her jobs is helping to place student teachers. She said that the people she runs across, future teachers, are some of the stupidiest people she have ever seen. She gives me examples weekly, and if even half of them are true, it terrifies me that some of these people might one day be teaching my children.

If we would stop worring so much about childrens 'emotional well-being' and self-estem' and instead giving them real standards to achieve and expecting them to do it, things would be a lot different.

But the girls in that picture are hot. Shocked

Talking about workers, not wives. I don't see many billboards on the country roads encouraging Korean men to marry Canadian mail-order women. But the way things are going, I'd give it time. Hundreds of years ago, big women were considered sexy, based on the sculptures I've seen, so we may be on the virge of an obsession with big-boned behemoths?

Back to the point, though. What percentage of the Canadian population is here, compared to the total percentage of the Chinese population? Even more for consideration: educated population.

I'd say Canada is winning that one.

For any of you who're wondering, my sense is the website is juxtaposing those pics mainly as an all-too ironic joke.

Kinda highlights stero-typed cultural differences doesn't it? I found it all too poetick.

The liberal's "diversity" and "political correctness" which have taken over American university's curriculum and ideological stances is our downfall...

the Chinese study math, engineering,natural sciences, etc while Amerikan students study "Queer Studies" and "Lesbian art." what the f* do you expect??? Rolling Eyes

I'd just like to point out: One of those pics was likely a class picture,but the other was a FRATERNITY picture.

'Nuff said.
