you mean like "household employment"?
Here's a letter you should read which was CC'd to Ted Kennedy. From a guy in Texas who says he has been a republican all his life. Apparently a friend of his committed suicide after being unable to find work with no unemployment extensions.
Republicans are on their way out, thankfully. Its too bad it took events like this to usher them out though.
Subject:
s-2006 unemployment
To:
Sen. Edward Kennedy
January 29, 2004
I have always been a Republican I'm employed but I have a person that i know that has been unemployed for well about 28 weeks now. He was a good father to his kids and a good person in general after his 26 weeks of unemployment ran out 14 days a go and he can not find a job not even a job at walmart he applied 5 times and was told that he was overqualified ( he has a Degree in engineering)
He was upset that he had no way to feed his kids he on Tues of last week He toke his movies dvds he had a collection of those almost 100 pound those for 136.00 his tolls and other thing totaling 565.00 worth of stuff . left the money on the table for his wife and walked out side and killed his self with a 29.00 pistole.
So don't worry about him his dead, but you should look in the mirror and feel just a little guilty for his kids. We can send 80 plus Billion to fight a war and feed other people but we set back and do nothing to help those of our own ..
By God you should feel guilty just as i do......
But whats bothering me most of all is that I see this bill below with nothing but Democrats sponsoring it and cosponsoring it.. If this is what the Republican Party is about .. I think I would like the 2000.00 To Kay's campaign back and the 2000. to Johns campaign back with the extra 2000. to President Bush's campaign
I think I can do more with the 6000. then what my elected officials are doing with it.. If i don't see a Republican on this Bill Before the end of the week and it passes very fast . I will not ever vote for a Republican again and I will spend the Money and I got it. to make sure a Democrats elected in your spot.
