May Day

It is interesting that May 1st, the International Workers Day, is celebrated all over the world except in the country of its origin, the U.S. With all the jobs being shipped overseas by multi-national corporations in search of cheap labor, I am not sure if American workers feel much international solidarity these days anyway. And that is unfortunately how the world is right now, the exploited have to compete with each other to survive on their share of ever shrinking piece of the pie that is left over after the big guys have filled their guts up to their noses!

But don't despair, there are rare glimpses of hope every now and then.
