As a native of Michigan, I am familiar with the blithely sinister and candy-coated intentional naivety Betsy DeVos expounds. One cannot truly expect fair or justifiable ideas regarding labor compensation to come from one who lived a comfortable childhood wrapped in the profits of pyramid schemes. Of course it seems logical to her to let the market determine wages; her income is determined outside the market, being a politico. Of course, she would then claim that the third-world poverty in which the workers live was their fault for stooping to the same standards of third-world laborers to whom America is outsourcing jobs.
I believe Bush is actually creating those high-paying jobs, and at the same time making government smaller through privatization. Just pay close attention to the reports form Iraq. Private security firms have replaced the U.S.Military in many of its peace-keeping (right!) duties, private contractors are rebuilding bombed-out utilities while ours fester in inadequacey, and these private employees necks are the ones being offered up to al-Quaeida's blades. Once Bush is forced to end his global ineptitude, his domestic lackings will be laid bare. Maybe then we should let the world market determine his fate, eh Betsy?
