Joel, I understand what you mean. This has been a prevalent question for the last few decades, actually. Is the purpose of business to profit the shareholders? If so, is it correct to do so at the expense of the workers?
The other part of the equation rests within the upper management and the amount of wealth distributed among them.
Of course, another tier that isn't really even discusses is that of private contractors- not actually the sector that is business owners but the aboreres who muct pay their own taxes, etc for seemingly trivial but very necessary work. by the time these workers pay tax as working class poverty, their rate is 50%. All I can say is that something has to change:-)
I posted the teaching English links for you in my response to Bob.
Thanks. Good luck to you & Burns.

Can you imagine the Obama's standing on the White House lawn with suit-cases in hand? The extended family as well.

http://www.byroncrawford.com/2008/03/barack-f...

According to Snopes, the photo does include some members of Obama's extended family (like many black people here in the States, Obama has umpteen half brothers and sisters), but they aren't actually on crack, or acting in teh ghey pr0n. Er, at least as far as we know.

Here's a list Snopes put together of the people in the photo's actual identities.

Front row (left to right): Auma Obama (Barack's half-sister), Kezia Obama (Auma's mother), Sarah Hussein Onyango Obama (the third wife of Barack's paternal grandfather), unidentified woman.

Back row (left to right): Unidentified man, Barack Obama, Abongo [Roy] Obama (Barack's half-brother), unidentified woman, unidentified man, unidentified man.

LOL
