More Announcements from the Bottomless Pit of Taxpayers Coming

Just read about next weeks announcement of the guy holding the office of our Prez on how we're going to save Chrysler and GM. Spending more money we have to print for guys who haven't gotten it for over three decades. All at a time when tax revenues, or if you were a business, sales dollars, are rapidly declining.

Yesterday Pratt & Whitney announced layoffs of 1,500, Wal-Mart Optical is laying off 650, Tyson the food outfit is closing a plant with 850, the City of Milwaukee is shedding 1,400, the University of Alabama system is dropping 1,000 just for starters. I mentioned the last year in Michigan dropping over 100,000 jobs in the last 12 months. Just heard Florida lost 75,000 jobs in February and Connecticut 14,300.

Why do I keep mentioning layoffs? Because in business and in our family finances we have money coming in and money going out. The government produces nothing but headaches for the masses, us, at this point. But they do not have a product or work to bring in money. It comes from us, the taxpayers and the businesses who pay taxes. With declining business revenues, and declining jobs - where does the money our so called leaders are committing going to come from?

Write your Congressmen and Senator today and ask that question. They won't answer you but at least they'll know the question is out there. What is happening to this country, and it all began several years ago and both parties are to blame, is picking up speed and we're at Mach 1 about now.

On the lighter side, enjoy this video. I dont know who it is but he asked a critical question about all these change we've been promised.


The only thing that's changed is we've all boarded a change bus that is careening us into living conditions in this country the likes of which anyone under 70 including me hasnt seen before. Start letting your voices be heard now before its too late.

For a better tomorrow ...
