I remember years ago a humorous article concerning how the end of the world would be reported by various newspapers. The NY Times said something like, " The world ends tomorrow, minorities and women most affected."

And Kerry wants to raise the minimum wage.. and make the teen unemployment rate go up even higher!!

As college student trying to find a job this summer, I literally want to kick Kerry in the nuts.. its hard enough for students to find a job already.

GW's website has a great ad that they are running on TV which slaps the pessimism of al Kerry and his Kerrorists in charge of most of the media in America.

Go to the site below and click the Pessimism button re your connection speed:

I am reminded of an old cartoon from the Lyndon Johnson era.

A hillbilly woman is lounging on her front porch reading a newspaper.
She says,
"Paw, the President of the United States has declared WAR on Poverty."

He, while laying under a tree in the front yard with a jug of Moon by his side, says,

"Well, if he wants me to join he is going to have to draft me!"

My comment on The Day After Tomorrow: I was expecting the movie to explain how women and minorities would be hardest hit by the new Ice Age...

About those African immigrants...most of them are working one and two jobs. They are doing very well thank you.

They often tell me that they cannot understand why "certain Americans" are always complaining...

Nah, this is certainly not slanted, is it? Bush Is To Blame. Did you know that Bush was a slave owner?

"The politicians and union officials who tolerate drop-out rates of 50% in big city schools are the real unemployment villains."

Hear, hear!

Well it's bizarre to be sure. The glass is either half empty or half full for people.

Exactly how do the "Union officials" factor into this?

I noticed the word waiting.

Excellent observation. That defect in seeking employment isn't limited to any particular group. I've seen similar sloth in people with advanced degrees who often draw a salaries in excess of $75K.

I held down a contract for 18 months working 250 hrs per month. My billed rate was $250/hour. Work was at the customer site. I didn't see what was happening back at the office. There were 15 people sitting around collecting a paycheck and WAITING for someone to give them some work. When the customer at my contract site decided to close the doors, my compnay laid me off...and the 15 unproductive people who had existed on the fruits of my labor.

I didn't wait for someone to rescue my bacon. I started burning my 380 hours of paid vacation (accrued over 5 years on not taking time off) to keep the bills paid and benefits intact. I found a short term engagement to port a meteorological database from Solaris to Linux. That shifted me out of the vacation burning mode. I found $3 million in new work in the telematics industry. All in 6 weeks. I also found a new boss in Dayton, Ohio who understands how to manage money so you have reserves set aside from good months to cover lean times beween contracts.

Lesson is that if you wait, you'll be found wanting. I see the writing on the wall with my job and went and found another one within a week and a half. I also started my own business and am taking some correspondence courses. I'm not waiting that's for sure.
