JOBS!!!

Where are they? You promised to create more jobs!

You promised to create road building jobs as did your hero FDR! Millions of Americans need work.

So, where are the jobs? You promised.

Instead, you tell people to go back to school or to retrain. For what? There are no jobs!!!

We voted for you because you promised "change". Well it has changed, but NOT in a more positive way for the majority. Unemployment is spreading!

So, where are the jobs? You promised us. So, where are the jobs?

Violence is escalating while state and local governments have to cut police and firemen.

So, where are the jobs? You promised.

Instead, I see you on talk shows and at the MLB All-Star game, laughing it up with Tim McCarver, et. al.

So, where are the jobs? You promised.

Americans still are hurting. You promised change. It is changing, but not for the better.

So, where are the jobs? You promised!!!

According to "The Nation.com" the average hourly wage in Mexico is $1.50, in China .20-.25. Almost no environmental laws, and very little if any, sick leave, overtime, or health insurance. Utilities are less, no minimum wage, no union, no high property or income tax, sales tax, and list goes on. Even Maytag and Hershey have moved part of their operations to Mexico. I don't see where the admistration has done anything to make the USA more competitive, in fact the opposite. According to the Tax Foundation, tax freedom day for 2009 was April 13th, projected for 2010 May 29th.
