Do you know the story of the frog in the pot getting warmed up? > "Social-democrats" keep the frog from leaping out. Sorry, I don't get it. --------------- Ed, I think that Chris is referring to the way in which social democrats provide just enough social change so that the masses don't truly revolt. Things get worse, a little ammelioration is provided, things again get worse and so on. Soon the workers are stuck at the bottom of the food chain. Thanks, Arthur. But I would suggest that it depends on the social democrats. My earliest memories of social democratic politicians are of people like Tommy Douglas and Stanley Knowles. What Douglas did in Saskatchewan suggested that he wanted to bring the frog all the way out even if he may not have been able to. ----------------- Yoiks!! Does this mean that everytime I want to pay a Visa bill or take some money out I'll have to go to India?? ---------------- With the magic of broadband the Internet all of this can be done remotely. You don't have to go to India. Just have send Canadian jobs to India. And keep doing so until there are no longer jobs available in Canada and then you won't have to worry about paying a Visa bill or taking some money out. I know it might come to that. Think of the money we'll save!! arthur Ed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Weick Sent: Monday, June 11, 2007 4:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Christoph Reuss Subject: Re: [Futurework] Future of work?
