I'm not sure I have been more sick about the direction of the USA then in the last 6 months. I see too many people demanding from government solutions no one should ever demand in a free society. I really feel I'm living in the spoiled society willing to give up actual freedom in replace of IOU's. I'm told small companies can't afford healthcare insurance but some how if government care is in place, they can afford an additional 10k/employee in taxes. Interesting they are already forced to pay 7% to SS and what 8% in healtcare insurance already?
So here is what I'm getting at. Today my wife call a good friend of ours to catch up and asked what she was doing. She said cleaning toilets. She said, oh your home, not at work? She replied, no I'm at work but now I clean toilets. Does she do this because she lost her job? No she is a great hair stylist. Her husband,now I think of it is a union man with a great steady job.How about that phil, I think I'm real good freinds with a union man. I've never discussed union with him in all my years. We've only discussed his job responsibilities. His wife has take a job cleaning toilets at a university because her kids willhave a choice of multiple colleges to attend for free, when college time rolls around.She still brings home a pay check, working towards a differentjob she wants to be in a year or so (not that it's too different) but she has made the personal choice/sacrafice for her family to better their life. She's not going to the government begging but making a personal choice doing a job we're told no one else would do. Why can't folks do that more in life instead of demanding the job they want with hours and pay they choose?Why is asking them to set priorities like insurance bennies too much to ask for before we all get screwed by a few?

Union or not doesn't make a man.. It does have a lot to do with bennies though and health insurance is on top of the lists. Changing jobs?I am taking a 2 week coarse to get started on energy auditing. It is all new to me butI caught wind of an area that is in need of workers and that is one of them. So I contacted the college and was informed of a class coming right up. Needless to sayI jumped on it. It will take 2 years after I get started to get my lisence. It's something that would be great to do if even it was only on weekends as a supplement. For as far as pay and hours goes if they can't pay me enough, good by to shift work. There is not very many jobs in my area that has much in line of bennies like health insurance.. If there was, it would be the first place most of us would be looking for jobs at.
Bawa, compassion is something you do on your own, not with government and certainly not by the force of government on its own people. We look first to government to provide too much today. You make your opportunities.

Guess what? The coarse I am taking I was planning on paying for it myself and then the people at the Career Center said no way.. They were paying it for me some how. It's not threw TAA as the company had just applied for it May 18th and has yet to get an answer. So do not suggest I wasn't going to, as I infact was. It looks like a good place to start with while I try and figure out what exactly is out there. After all myHP doesn't give me more than I can handle.. I am also some one that always bounces back on to my own 2 feet. That's the difference between a man and a mouse..
By this October, 500 auto-related jobs "” or 70 percent of the town's industrial employment "” are expected to be gone.
To make matters worse, cargo carrier DHL Express announced it was pulling out of an air park that employed 8,000 in nearby Wilmington, throwing many other Greenfield residents out of work.

The city mirrors what has been happening in many places in Ohio, where the April unemployment rate was 10.2 percent, the highest in more than 25 years.
And since many of these people financial whoos come from piss poor government decisions to look out for their own well being more than for the general well being of America her self.
Trade deals and tax laws that put millions out of work and whole communities in hardship.

Here in this county the unemployment rate was at 13.9 percent before the mill went down on May 5th.. So it's hard to see what will happen next. As you have stated it is not just here or there. It's every where you go! Factories are shutting down and all those that supply them or move the products out are down with them..
