Of course we want jobs. However, what is it that American's acually do? We don't make anything here anymore. Manufacturing has been moved overseas. All we have is retail and restaurants. Wow. If you're *really* good you might make $12 an hour as a manager at Staples -- without benefits I might add. Other jobs have been silently shifted to illegal workers. Why? Because EVERYBODY wants their stuff for cheap. God help us if employers actually had to pay payroll taxes, workers' compensation and adhere to minimum wage laws. Slipping cash under the table exploiting the fresh batch of newly arrived illigals is just so much easier -- plus you get double the manpower for the money. Honest, ethical employers don't stand a chance. They will be run out of business undercut by sleazy cheats faster than a blodied mamal devoured by pirahhanas. The public turns a blind eye because they got their product or service for $50.00 less. Think of that next time you get your annoying "save an additional 15%" daily coupon from Kohls for their shit made in China.
I'm getting off track. WE WANT JOBS NOW the public chants, and they try to pin the politicians. What are the politicians supposed to do? Pull jobs out of their asses? Wave a magic wand? The public has more power than crying to politicians. Don't give politicans the power. I know it's a novel idea in America, but how about everybody looking at the guy in the mirror to make things happen?
