In many respects, it is more free than workforces in the US and UK. The Chinese may take any job they can get hired for, at any wage, and with any benefits they can negotiate. True, in many cases, those wages are far less than the US or UK. But, in many cases, it beats the hell out of working in a rice paddy. And slavery certainly existed in Adam Smith's day, both in the US and the UK. -- Doug I thought that in the U.S. and U.K., anyone can take any job they can get hired for, at any wage and benefits that they can negotiate. Uh, no, not by a long-shot. First, you have minimum-wage laws and all sorts of nanny-state workplace rules. Then there are unions. Next is government licensing and permitting for many occupations. Some jobs are intrinsically illegal! On and on.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I see you are one of those greedy Americans thaty wants everything. Even steal the food out of your nieghbour's children's mouth. This is the black side of America. Greed, aquisitivity, damn your neighbour attitude. Harry, we greedy Americans give more to help our fellow man than any other country. If there is a disaster somewhere, Americans are going to send help and even if it's a country that doesn't like America, we're going to offer help. Americans are every sort of person you can think of, some are very bad but most are not the greedy *******s you seem to think we are and it's quite tiresome to hear it over and over. |
