They are called bankrupt companies. <br /><br />Start your own company, put your own time and money on the line and let me know how you feel about non-producers taking food out of your child's mouth.<br /><br />That is where the problem with unions and their love of feather bedding comes into play. Ref: General Motors and Chrysler. <br /><br />See... half of Americans are going to be unemployed because this simple economic truth as been perverted by government intervention in private business, affirmative action, environmental terrorism, and a workforce that thinks the world owes them a living.<br /><br />If there are people living in India or Hawaii or Kansas that can do your job at half the price, you better figure out how to make yourself twice as valuable or your ass is gone. <br /><br />Liberals are all hung up on wealth envy when they should be looking at talent envy or skill envy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-67940054275138271312009-07-19T18:57:34.152-07:002009-07-19T18:57:34.152-07:00McClatchy has been paying these wages for years.McClatchy has been paying these wages for years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-65396218790643096292009-07-19T18:45:27.481-07:002009-07-19T18:45:27.481-07:002:11 PM: Good point, but that goes for any industr...2:11 PM: Good point, but that goes for any industry.

Just like you shop for the best product at the least cost, employers search for the best employee at the best price. <br /><br />The company does not work for you. You work for the company. If you are making $50K a year with an additional $10K a year in benefits, the company (any company) must find a way that your service can generate more than $60K in revenue. Are you worth that much? What is it that you do that generates that much revenue? <br /><br />It is a competitive world. English majors and journalism majors are a dime a dozen. If someone is willing to do the job for X dollars why should an employer pay someone else 2X to do the same job. <br /><br />If you want welfare, look at the public sector. If you can't, or won't compete, don't complain when someone else takes your job from you. <br /><br />Companies are in business to turn a profit, they are not social welfare agencies. If you don't like what is happening to you, start your own company. And, if you do, let me know if you feel an overwhelming urge to pay your employees more than they are worth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-90571227466033784332009-07-19T13:54:53.701-07:002009-07-19T13:54:53.701-07:00Really, this is where all of journalism is going: ...Really, this is where all of journalism is going: contractors. Need a photo? Call Joe Smith, laid-off seasoned photog, have him fire off a few good ones. Pay him $100. Need a story? Call Heather Green, college correspondent, and have her knock out 10 inches and pay her $50. Got a weekend afternoon shift to fill? Jake Jones will work for $7 an hour. Same with designers and copy editors... they'll be bit workers, on-call as needed. Only the editor and the upper management will have to remain, of course. They're paid the big bucks.
