Remember your elementary mathematics? Finding the lowest common denominator was one of the skills you learned. You will soon be applying that skill to that 21st century darling of economists called Globalization. The word sounds innocent enough or perhaps even mildly exciting. It sounds like the sort of concept-in-a-word that you are supposed to embrace as being cardinal self-evident truth. All heads nod in agreement at the cocktail party.
Even for people in better situations, getting fired still carries negative repercussions. You might be ridiculed by your family, forced to sell personal property, or experience a general feeling of worthlessness. One way or another, society finds a way to punish you. It’s a matter of necessity.

Hence the costs would equally be the same everywhere. It costs 1 credit in NY, same in London, Moscow, Cairo, Tokyo..and so forth.
Not sure if the entire world and these nations are going to just readily do that.
The price variances from 40 yrs ago and today is called inflation. A brand spanknig new 1969 442 Challenger cost about 3,000 bucks in 69.
A brand spanking new 2008 vehicle with minimal extras cant be had for less than 20 grand, counting your loan interest rates, taxes, licensing fees, insurance etc etc etc. And wouldnt even come close to being able to last as long as that 69 Challenger can.
Cheers!!!!!

What we need to do is to have more worker representation at the NATIONAL level because the State and Local Gov't do not have the money to fight the corporations about this.
What happens if you’re a steadfast, dutiful employee, serving the same company for 20 or 30 years and making them a bundle of money while you’re there? You’re rewarded with a pension, or maybe 401(k) contributions.
Yes, guess where 401k's, or, as the article calls them, the "rewards" for the "dutiful service", went??into the $8+ trillion (and no, it wasn't $700 billion) Banker Takeover Bill, so that Wall Street and the private Federal Reserve could corner the global market and bring in a global depression followed by a new ECONOMIC order. IN OTHER WORDS, WALL STREET AND THE PRIVATE FEDERAL RESERVE HAVE ROBBED THE ENTIRE NATION OF THEIR RETIREMENT!!! This is all by design folks. Keep them working and let them starve when they no longer can. Keep the sheeple perpetually in wage slavery...
Yes, and where do you think the 401k's went? into the $8+ trillion (and no, it wasn't $700 billion) Banker Takeover Bill, so that Wall Street and the private Federal Reserve could corner the global market and bring in a global depression followed by a new ECONOMIC order. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU VERY OWN RETIREMENT FUNDS, YOUR ONLY "TICKET" OUR OF WAGE SLAVERY, HAS GONE DIRECTLY INTO THE POCKETS OF THE PSYCHOPATHS WHO WISH TO DOMINATE THIS PLANET!!!!! This is all by design folks. Look forward to working well past your retirement age

Thanks TheTruth777 for writing the post I no longer have the energy to do because its frustrating to watch what’s happening and be unable to do much about it.
Now what’s happening is that the NWO elite is gutting the civil service middle class across the world, and particularly in the US, where they are firing teachers and civil service workers all over the place.
Be reminded that the civil service is the last bastion of middle class jobs that the elite hasn’t gutted yet, but they are now doing it under people like Christ Christie in New Jersey where thousands of people are being layed off and those left are prodded to take pay cuts and to contribute to their health plans.
The elite gutted the manufacturing jobs starting under Ronald Reagan, and then ruined the IT industry for the middle class under Bill Clinton, and now the IT industry has all the good jobs outsourced to India, Indonesia, the Philippines, and China, as all the manufacturing jobs before that and even now are being shipped to third world environments.
This is no Joke. The young people in America are in serious trouble. There are no Jobs for them that will enable the vast majority of them to live happy prosperous middle class lives.
The American culture and economy has gone backwards because of these fake economic recessions and depressions that have made the rich richer and the poor and near poor poorer.
Bottom line, we need to hit the streets like they are doing in Europe.
