>>Tom,
>>
>>   Taking the Nuremberg trial defense? "It isn't my fault. I am totally 
>>helpless. I have no control here." They just have to just go long and 
>>accept the cash rewards for their inaction against sweatshops. How 
>>convenient.
>>
>>   That's just an excuse Tim, not to do what is right. After destroying 
>>their jobs, they attack others on a limited budget for shopping there, yet 
>>do nothing to stop the profits they are reaping from what they call slave 
>>labor overseas and a violation of human rights. That is so phony and 
>>hypocritical of them. We all know this.
>>
>>   Best,
>>
>>   Donovan
>>
>>   PS. On the water issue I think it should all be used up giving it to 
>>new businesses, then use the new tax revenue to build a pipeline to an 
>>actual drinkable water source. Why are we drinking this crappy disgusting 
>>water? It is so nasty it ruins your skin? Is this really safe water to 
>>consume? Are you tired of it eating all your appliances and pipes, 
>>clothing, turning everything brown? You know that isn't normal? Lets start 
>>drinking fresh surface water, not his old nasty stuff.
>>
>>   What I like about Moscow is my family is here, it is beautiful, and 
>>safe. But with no jobs it is not possible to stay long. Without UI, MSD, 
>>and Gritman, you don't have many good paying jobs in Moscow. All of those 
>>are tax based jobs, and where do you get your taxes from? People without 
>>high paying jobs. Its not a good economy whatsoever. We need more jobs 
>>that pay something more then $10 or less that current residents of Moscow 
>>can do.
>>
>>   Best,
