Maybe you haven't noticed that the"money people" have sent most of the full time jobs across the pond and you blame Pres. Obama. But he doesn't create jobs....that comes from the 'house' shhh....don't awaken them. Jobs go overseas when the cost of labor and taxes become too high in this country. Labor unions drive up the cost of labor, and essentially price themselves out of work. The U.S. has the second highest corporate tax rate in the world, which keeps foreign investments and companies from coming to this country. BTW, how did that $865B stimulus package, that was passed as a jobs bill, work out? Where are all the jobs? The dirty little secret is that the money went to the unions and Democrat cronies.
Oi******s: If you are referring to the i*****l i*******ts. I can remember a proposal to fine the employers for hiring them...that went over like a lead balloon, but that would have solved most of the problem real quick....but why it was turned down was that it would hurt the business. Democrats want the i******s as v**ers, and businesses want the i******s for cheap labor. What we need to do is close the borders and go back to the pre-1970s and only allow 276,000 immigrants a year into the country
The Congress could bring forth bills to put men to work on infrastructure, schools, hospitals, etc., but they hold true ....not to let Pres. Obama to get credit. And, how do you suggest they do that? Like a CCC program like they had before WWII, a program paid by the taxpayers? That's not a solution. How about lowering taxes overall, thereby freeing up more money for capital investments? Even if the House came up with a jobs bill, the Democrat controlled Congress would k**l it, or not even bring it up for a v**e.
And the unions....Oh! Yes! Let's give full rein to the employers to fire for no reason. Now you're finally coming up with something worth while, it's called "right to work law." We have that in my state and it works very well. An employer should be able to fire any worker they please, with no reason - it's their company, not the worker's or the union's.
Lets look at that. Where is the security when you want to buy a car or a house....the banks would LAUGH at you. "Where is your security at work young man...you don't have any....sorry." Companies can no longer guarantee work for life (or until retirement), even Japan done away with this. Large worker pension systems is what got GM in trouble, as well as other companies.
The very reason that unions were created was to protect the worker from unscrupulous, greedy employers....to give them the security to achieve their American Dream. Had a purpose in the 30s and 40s, but no longer. In case you haven't noticed the big unions are in trouble, members are tired of paying those high dues and are dropping out. Unions are nothing more than legal money laundering, they collect dues, and then funnel it to the Democrat Party in campaign donations.
The info you get from your conservative media is what they want to tell you to keep you. Far more accurate and factual than the liberal media, who distort, skew, and hide the real facts.
