    Why don't you place the blame where it belongs? On this administration. You were quick to blame "W" but not the Democrats? How does that work?


    I know none of you are business owners, it shows. You can't hire people and sell stuff if no one is there to buy it. Thats pretty simple. A business (corporation) hires people as a by-product. There isn't anything more expensive in a company then employees. However, if they wasn't bigger profits they hire more people if the demand is there. So to blame big business for the doldrums of the country is completely wrong. Place the blame where it belongs, squarely on the gubmint. Regulation, regulation and regulation are your three biggest issues. I include taxes in the regulations. Look at Callyfornia, they are at the head of the line taxing as much as they can, so what do the companies do? Simple, they move to another state more favorable. This is the same thing done by some companies that have moved over seas, Companies aren't in business to create jobs for the middle class, their in business to make money, nothing else. When the government makes it harder or near impossible for them to operate either in a state or country, they move. Now who's fault is that? Government. Not Repbulican or Democrat, just Government

      Mud these companies do hire people they just want to hire them for 1.00 to 2.00 an hour or even a day and that is exactly what they are doing. Theses companies have more money then they have ever had in modern times why do think the market is doing so good. One day soon this is going to catch up with this country. My prediction it will happen by the end of the year.

                    Any idea how many years we've been hearing that prediction? Big companies do have money and they aren't spending it, why do you think that is? They don't have any flippin idea that the heck this government is going to do next. Are you aware of the health care debacle coming about in the next two years? Are you aware that by IRS assessments, insurance for a family of four will start, yes start around 20 G's a year. Now, knowing that and many of these companies do provide insurance for their employees, don't you think they need to make some major considerations in this up coming expense? Ya know wha their going to do don't ya? Theirgoing to tell the employees to pack sand, pay the fine (about one quarter or slightly less then the insurance) and allow you to get your coverage through the gubmint. And the whole time you will be blaming the company, the gubmint will be eating your lunch. Now that's a guarantee, not a threat.

                      They are not spending it because they are getting richer and richer by not spending it and like you said that's why they are in business and that is their right but, it will catch up with all of us sooner than later. When people run out of money and have no money to spend it will all come crashing down.

                                There will always be earnings disparity in a free society and there should.People should want to advance given the opportunity. Less opportunity today than since the great depression. Remember the ME generation during the Reagan years?? Screw thy neighbor.the Govt.America..It is all about ME ME ME. Their descendants have made them proud today. So here we are.Wanna go back some years Nixon to china Carter and the Tri Lateral Commission. Well, every admin. to this date has moved us along to this path. World bank.New world order,thosand points of light, and the biggie..The Global Market place. Bussiness was the engine that moved those trains So here we are!BUT,BUT,BUT. They only do the work that lazy Americans won't do.Small Business was the engine that moved that train So here we are..Back some years someone decided that manufacturing was slow and cumbersom for America. Technology started to take shape in the work force. Japanese robots became fashionable(A Natural and needed progression) People lost jobs,Some were retrained,some could find other jobs some went back to school. Then someone decided we should become a service nation and forsake manufacturing. so here we are Around the same time came union busting. Easy, send the jobs over seas. So here we are. Unions at that time and still are blamed for most the ills of our nationSO, it happened. As people cheered the loss of union jobs.(B****d's deserved what they got. What slipped their small minds was the fact that at the time a manufacturing job created upwards to 3 or more jobs in the pipeline. As the Whoosh become louder and louder, it meant a lot of lost revenue to local,state and Federal govt. Couldn't go down the street and get a job. It was already closed and moved off shore. So here we are!! Business was the engine that drove that train Unions along with others have to share in blame.
