Computer Geek / Network & Systems Administrator. I have been in computers my whole life and have dabbled in different programs and some web design. I like movies, music, dinners, cooking, hanging with friends, although I am more of a homebody. I like to debate my views with other people in politics, religion, equality, health care reform, and several other topics. I believe in equality for all, and not just some. We have the freedom of religion and the freedom from religion. No religion should dictate our laws, nor should we ever write any discrimination into the constitution. I also believe that just because the majority voted for something, doesn't mean it is the best thing for this country. Americans need to quit selling out their fellow man and demand that NAFTA be fixed now, or just needs to go away, period. America needs to take care of itself before its to late. We need health care reform now. We should never leave health & human services in the hands of the free market. We should never allow anyone to profit off the suffering of others.
For the past few years I have heard nothing but union bashing and stories of how these people have destroyed American labor. Many of you have repeatedly spoken nothing but lies and misinformation about the American Auto Workers. In my eyes, you have done nothing but help destroy an industry who has worked hard to supply almost every one of you a comfortable and safe car so you can get around.
Today I will put a face on the ones you love to hate and show you these people bleed red like the rest of Americans, and I want you to look at their faces and think of them the next time you feel so inclined to help destroy the foundation of this country – AMERICAN LABOR.
I dedicate this video to my grandfather who died on the line, and to my friends and family who are working on the line and are in the process of losing their jobs.
To the rest of you, I hope you never have to go through the loss of your job because you were sold out by your fellow Americans. These jobs are going, and there is nothing to replace them.

Powerful!
Every man woman and child should take a look in the mirror. We have sold our country out collectively. We need to start manufacturing things in the great USA. Why are people afraid to admit this basic fact?
