We don't need more jobs. What we need is smarter people, and people that are willing to work hard, and appreciate what they are fortunate to have without being too greedy. Let me give an example.. People are being put to work around here doing various construction jobs (highway resto, etc.,) because of the American Reinvestment Act (or whatever it is called.) They should be happy to have a job, and be able to pay their bills right? And one that pays fairly well at that. But no.. They, along with all of the other union construction workers have gone on strike because they are greedy. I mean.. C'mon. These people should be happy to have jobs at all. I'm sure there are thousands of people right now that would kill to have a job like theirs. But I guess it isn't good enough for them. I don't mean this in a disrespectful way to any on here that are involved in unions, but I personally believe they are outdated. The days of Standard Oil, etc., are gone and done. Most local laws, around here at least, do a very good job of protecting workers rights. I think the unions played a big part in forcing work out of our country, by pricing American workers right out of the market. Think about it.. If you could have something built in the U.S. by a union worker for $30/hr, or by someone in another country for $1.00/day, which would you choose? And think from the standpoint of a large corporation, not from the standpoint of a patriotic individual. It just pisses me off when people ask for more than they need because they think they are better than everyone else. <end rant>
