Unfortunately I think this current crowd would have been too dumb to use it. Remember Memo-Gate? The had the dems dead to right and they failed to pull the trigger.

The Federal Reserve will guarentee the unemployment rate doesn't go too low, by raising interest rates. They always have.

The GOP should be accusing the democrats of destroying the job market for our young people and our home grown minorities by flooding the country with illegals and H1s and immigrants out of control.

I quit my job 2 weeks ago because they tried to cut my pay by 40% and I could care less. I'm going to milk it for a few more weeks and get some things done around the house.Then I'll start looking for a job that pays less than I was making before (or the same if they will pay)as long as I don't have to put in 60 hours a week like I was doing. How F U is that?

Here in South Fla. you can.t get a job unless you speak spanish. So what does that mean? Only legal and illegal get jobs. No native Americans get jobs. God bless our immigrants, you think?

I have hired over 10 people in my company over the past year here in Massachusetts and I have two openings yet to fill. It is extremely hard finding people around here. The unemployment rate is so low that you have to pretty much recruit people out of jobs to come work here.

And I pay $35-50K to start. Yet it is so hard finding people.

The main problem is that we have the highest standard of living in the history of the civilized world. There is no other time in recorded history in which times have been better than those in which we live today.

Many of my workers go to Starbucks in their Lexuses and pay $3 for a cup of coffee without blinking an eye. They have so much money that they have no idea what to do with it all.

Here in Massachusetts, the average home costs $400K and the average family makes about $120K a year. Just try going to a restaurant or shopping mall on a Friday night. FOrget about it. Most restaurants on Friday nights have a two hour wait. Shopping mall parking lots are absolutely mobbed and you are better off parking at some distant fast-food joint and walking over to it. Once inside the mall, people are itching to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars at tony stores such as the Apple Store, Neiman-Marcus, Sharper Image, Nordstrums, and other such places.

People around here are filthy, filthy rich. And I have a lot of trouble finding people with no experience to work at $35 - $50K a year. If you want to come to live in Massachusetts, freepmail me and I'll get you a job.
