    How does Christianity look?

    Now, how does the USA look to the rest of the world by comparison?

    Christianity is not about being pious on Sunday and living like hell for the rest of the week. It is about having consideration for others. Scripture says if you have a problem with your brother settle it before you go to worship God. I think the last week has summed up what the USA looks like to the rest of the world. Squabbling irresponsible children and certainly not a nation that should be considered a world leader

    You know Tom you sound like a poor looser. Brinkmanship was the looser in this little debacle and there is going to be retribution exacted. Obama didn't create this crisis, Cruz and his cronies did. I expect that in the cigar smoke filled backrooms men in expensive suits told the politicians the facts of life

    UAW Furious Over New GM Plant in China - Yahoo Voices - voices.yahoo.com

    Quote:

    GM has been opening more and more plants overseas, and in Mexico in an effort to save money. There are many in the UAW that believe that the plants are opening up outside of the United States in an effort to break the Union, and to break GM's reliance on the UAW.

    GM has been showing greater gains in China since they began to sell cars there. Most automotive insiders believe that the Chinese market is the future for the U.S. auto industry. These insiders point to the belief that U.S. automakers will be selling more cars in China in the next few years then in the United States.

    The UAW believes that it should be able to share in this increasing market. The Union believes that UAW members should be making the majority of the parts that go into the Chinese cars. This would insure their future in the automotive industry.

    General Motors believes that most of the Chinese cars and parts should be manufactured in China to ensure more profitability. GM believes that it would be a major hit to profit if it had to pay all of the import costs that would go along with trying to send parts from the United States to China.

    It will be interesting to see how much this plant will play in the upcoming national contractual negotiations between the UAW and GM. Chances are very good that it will play a significant part on both sides of the table.
    Just collecting data for now.

    I will be honest, after hollering about a clean bill through out this crisis, I would be pissed if the senate bill wasn't as clean going to the house as the senate demanded of theirs.

    No, I won't join the TParty, and it's a bi partisan bill 81-18, but I would be pissed.

    As opposed to true chistianity, speech, which is about relationship with Christ, not telling everyone what a great Christian you are while denying help to the needy or making matters worse for your own political gain. It comes down to substance over form.
