you find something bob about the holocaust because they have not been given but at the moment by final mart that the president said in a fight about that but i was asking will that in the case the study and that the government being distant from indicates that in this country use the media the biggest set in earlier yet in the country in the last seven that years continue to watch but now you share that it's not in doubt that they've been ignored it also means so of the three people show up because of the and that the most is that because of a lot of things for patients coming in from the seventy one countries like china vietnam monk war hold and more on this he but voted not to make about that about i mean outside of baghdad that the said about us up on the internet that's about it and i it's a lot of value more with john government departments and i know the way i think the media the might the end they buy them at all about winning that that's about all that of that is different a lot i'm not going to something that you know anything about him by his office in new orleans yes i do think that it's only got about a mile high in part along with the women's five

system for instance you would like who the message discovery happens at the media many times you love a large supply of blood now the main state owned bank we have a child should be looking for forward to that it's is now on walls but and the theater i don't know and don't come home meanwhile hong and own facto do do quoin do koyn the trend of watching you work go overseas started probably twenty years ago and it wasn't minor people paid very little attention to but i think it all about the last ten years when you began see season very major project's san francisco oakland bay bridge being one in a few other big bridge projects across the country and really this became acute when the downturn in two thousand seven making began back zero very important point in time for more bridge builders in the portland metropolitan area and you're on the west coast are you doing here is up to twelve hundred american and now we're down about six hundred fifty three lost almost half within a decade one day from the next you never know what's you know but after that eleven years of being in a place can commented you just think it's going to go on forever and then also this is not there are no longer enough a closer look at that this start all over again the american dream has always worked hard you know and to put money away and pretty soon here's your view that you make it but now there's this i early that this started you guess are on top just about the ability to get anywhere you don't have jobs and a lot of people go and other trades i think you lose a lot of expertise i'm trying to constantly get new premises but if i do not have to work and bring the promises of more than one line you gotta have something to start with you the worst part of it all psychological uncertainties and the thing about art trade unionists and the guy can get a job and he could stay with the company and he could do with that company for twenty thirty years that's dried up i started working at u s side when i was eighteen years old i wasn't over yet for the twenty five years that i wasn't there after that it wasn't a good job in a place that we thought were going to retire from it and that many years and then you thought you know you have good things going well after u s side folded iowa's unemployment wasn't in two weeks i went to work for but and they've got slow i got laid off right about that time i got laid off but spent most hospital bills too this is a little tough yes it's hard it's hard to buy groceries when you make of the house payment car payment plan demands so it's a good job for less than three dollars or seventy cents eleven this is important but it's not the important the is medical insurance and of them i wanted to just keep a nice steady job into retired and that's that's molded bit that might be laid off any more dean dean dean do dean know dean didn't dean dean also on the net no when you to know he said for those though or not it doesn't happen the story winds coming in detroit or milwaukee farm boy more moves to the city gets a factory job and in middle class that values far more likely to find that story here how did that

jobs creation and he helped build still components of the san francisco oakland bay bridge they go about it until she was on until a states is that they didn't come out and for sure and i realized you know there's a lot of felt that she had lot of should i earn a living but you that so little time outsourced projects combined with china's thirty year economic strength but it's created a growing class of relatively well off the collar the single room or more leaks in this fight might not look like much but is he browses on line and smoke cigarettes and sees his life has vastly improved question about that cheryl are somewhat a lot more serious offenses that about so badly that they states and needed who are showing up by the alternative that someone that sit down and how with that the fed when asked about those whose outsourced jobs he may have taken one feels little sympathy that's how i look out for wear short enough so that that's for one candidate for the russian orthodox
