家园 I read the story of

our early Chinese immigrants many years ago in California. Really tearful reading of their achievements and their unfair treatment. Most of them never got married and died alone without sons or daughters.

Individually, those Chinese were brave heros, but collectively, they were cowardly pigs,ripped of with 1/3 of normal wages, waiting to be slaughtered and kicked out even if their sweating should have earned their rights on this land. Chinese were and are too nice, too amicable, too soft, just as nice as sheep. When similar treatment was imposed on the Irish, you saw quick revolts. REVOLTS EARNED IRISH their rights in America and finally an Irish president in the white house(JFK). Crying baby got milk and silent baby got ass kicked.

When the Central and Union met in Nevada, NOT one Chinese worker was invited for the grand ceremony. I repeat here--not even one.

在无计可施的情况下,中央太平洋铁路公司负责施工的高管Charles Crocker建议雇用华工。他的理由是:能修建万里长城的民族,当然也能修铁路。hehe, same thing across the border.

same thing happened in exactly the same fashion in Canada

Determined, hard workers, the new Government of Canada under Sir John A. Macdonald recruited the Chinese to work on large projects such as the final leg of the Trans-Canada rail line in British Columbia. Speaking against strong opposition, Macdonald said, “It is simply a question of alternatives: either you must have this labour or you can’t the have railway.”

--MacDonald, prominent politician, the founding father of the Canadian Confederation whose trans-Canada railway established a new country.

100 years later, deja vu. Everything repeats again.

Why Obama wants Chinese railway?--because Chinese workers are hard-working, dirty cheap, easily dispensable with no need of caring their human rights or dignity.

If one white American worker dies for the construction of this Obama railway, what will happen?---a billion dollar lawsuit, massive media criticism, strike, cost overrun, the derail of the whole project.

If one thousand Chinese workers die, nobody will give a sh** esp. when our own Chinese community/gov do not give a sh** about their lives. When this project is done, white Americans will cry wolf of the Yellow Invasion and pressure the Congress. Then all the underpaid Chinese will be kicked out ASAP, AGAIN.

中国人的宿命 [ 参将 ] 于:2009-06-24 22:50:35

100年前,帮美国人修连接东西部的铁路大动脉,那时多么艰苦啊!

今天,听到高铁的消息,这哪里是什么输出技术,分明就是又一代劳务输出(这回体力脑力一起输出),因为只有中国人的廉价(labor和组织)才能控制住成本,但修好后的经济效益,大部分中国人是享受不到的。

通宝推:唵啊吽,
