Ok, Aunt Bob watched the "Job's speech" last night. More aptly titled "lets do more of what hasn't work yet"
For 10 minutes I listened to Obama go on and on about all the construction jobs that can be created. As an unemployed non construction type person I don't see how this will help. Back in the day when FDR tried this the country thrived on manual labor, today that is not the case. Locally a road construction company owner was interviewed and he said if more work comes his way he will have work for his existing workers, but still no room for hiring new people. Also said that all the people applying for work with him were not qualified for road work. It does him no good to hire people with no experience.
I just don't see how his spending more money on the same kind of plan will help. He's just jacking up the already high national debt and risking further national credit downgrading.
I am by no means a Conservative and dont' know that they have the answers either. I don't see how this can ever get fixed if the 2 parties don't get together and find a common ground. The sad part of that is that they have already proven they can't do that.
Our leaders have gotten to full of themselves and their personal agendas that compromise doesn't seem possible.
Maybe its time to vote them all out and start over.
