Chandos

You really are one real piece of work.

You are more concerned over quite minimal issues of labor relations in the
United States than you are over folks being imprisoned to produce products
for WalMart and not being paid to do so?  So, your Big Heart extends only
to US workers but not to the Chinese proletariat?  In our previous
discussions, you have always come across as the great One Worldian who
advocated that the identical standard should apply to, say, Europe and the
US as is applied to, say, Africa or South America.  

It seems that your hypocrisy has been revealed, yet again.  That hissing
noise in the background is the release of the noxious gas caused by the
pricking of your pomposity bubble.

Now, pray, go away and allow your betters to get back to Leica cameras.

Marc
