    LOL Poland actually tries to get truckers from poorer countries.Some 2 million workers from Ukraine in Poland and no ,Poles don't like the idea of bringing foreign workers because it keeps wages low.And I can assure you there aren't any truckers willing to work for free in Poland.I should know I am from there.Guess you just picked random country and I agree with the rest of your post.

    I know. I just thought it would be something that would get people to laugh for a second. I do a lot of business with Poles and they sure aren't free!

    EDIT: I think a lot of the anti Eastern Euro hate comes from people having interacted with Russians at one point or another. (I'm only half kidding)

    It might be but people are people.I been helped once or twice by a Russian (or someone from former Soviet Union,I can't tell them apart-)) so I don't have any hard feelings towards them.
    I think that sentiment comes simply from having to compete with foreigners in what supposed to be your country. It's same thing everywhere.

    Well the discussion was about the wealth gap , I didn’t consider Canada and if you didn’t remind me I might forget your there , after voting in treaudeau you guys should have to stop voicing opinions on anything , geeze he’s worse then Obama .
    I’ve been following this 1% nonsense for many years , it’s a commie construct , designed to divide us .
    My point was and is that the wealth gap expanded rapidly under obama , even while he was redistributing all the wealth he could get his boney fingers on , the only true way to close the wealth gap is through opportunity and a growing economy , new wealth and new middle class jobs will lift everyone up .

    LOL no the tea party started under bush then expanded under obama , T E A stands for taxed enough already , nothing about the 1% , thats from the liberal lefty side of politics , you know , like you .
    The tea partyers love trump , and I would say trump either intentionally or not , picked up the pieces of the tea party after Obama tried to destroy them
