“Blame your government. Wall street and big business only exist to make their stockholders money. They do not care about you for anything but the money they can get out of you.
Your government should be enacting legislation that protects you both as a worker and a consumer. Many jobs could "come back" with the right legislation.”

I would have my Economists every single day, over at the W.H. until they come up with an idea that WORKS. But that's just me, and the way I see this situation with Obama and Jobs right now.”

“Its really amazing that you would write the WH telling them that the clock is ticking on creating JOBS. Its laughable that no one was writing the WH when they were ripping us off to the tune of billions of dollars. No one wrote when the former Treasury secretary created this gambling scheme to rip us off. No other president on record has been under this much scrutiny. It does not take a rocket scientist to know that this issue is not going to be resolved in the short term. It took 8 years to get us here. You should not expect that this problem is going to solved overnight. The fallout from the bad choices of the previous administration is still reverberating and all of the impatient naysayers need to recognize that fact.....n uff said.....”
