In the late 1980's, IBM was poised to open a major typewriter manufacturing plant in rural Kentucky.
The building they constructed to house this project was almost 1,000,000 square feet.
You can go here to see the proud history of IBM typewriters. Notice how the history ends in the late 1990's.
Most of this is because of one man.
Bill Gates.
He eliminated tens of thousands of jobs in the U.S. typewriter industry. His software packages have also eliminated American jobs at the U.S. postal service, secretarial positions, and the printing industry. The job losses that can be laid at his feet probably number in the millions. And yet some people consider him a hero.
Please do your part to reverse this trend. Take whatever device you're using to read this, lift it high above your head, and smash it into tiny little pieces. Then go buy a typewriter.
Create jobs for America !!! Boycott Bill Gates and all others who try to eliminate jobs in the name of lower prices and better products for consumers !!!
