Willie Green only posts bad news.
If 8 people lose their jobs at machine shop in Des Moines and it's on the net somewhere, he's sure to post it.
Sans solutions or suggestions of course.

Concur. Transportation and rail sectors are flying high. GDP is soaring as is employment. The economy is booming by any standard you wish to apply. But NOOOOOOOOO! It's bad according to the 55 million democRATs that gave up looking for work last Tuesday.
