I see in the news that Aus.may become the new desert as the depletion in the ozone is causing catastophic conditions there ,20% less rainfall this year alone
South Africa will be next
Canada produces about 30% more than they can consume ,so they are bringing in about 200000 imigrants a year ,Toronto alone will need 100000 new homes a year for the next 10 years to start ,Talk about a building boom .
The lower dollar will bring back work to the US were many of the new jobs they are talking about are at hamburger stands at minimum wages while the good industrial jobs have been going off shore ,this is partly to blame for the union calling for too high wages and the wrong decisions on how high to keep the dollar ,Old Green sp. made a blunder by putting the interest rate too high then keeping it too high for too long ,he did not act quick enough to avert the last recesion ,hopefully these decisions are being corrected now ,
the war on terror must go on and they must be stopped at all expense .London Eng, announced they have averted aprox. 25 attempts to blow up buildings and kill people pallestinian style

3 kinds of jobs:

There are more, actually. Ball groper is good. But we could build an entire economy on carrying each others bags. These jobs could be enhanced digitally by employing the latest wireless technology. IT is where it's at because it increases productivity greatly.

In Victoria, BC, you can see lots of good jobs. How about driving tourists around town via horse & buggy? Lots of those on the streets. Or, if you want a challenge as well as a career, how about peddling tourists around town, as they sit comfortably in your trailer. Good for the heart. These guys, after some practice, can obtain speeds the rickshaws could only dream of. Lots of those kinds of jobs in Victoria as well.

So, you see, there are many opportunities for career minded people. And these are non-polluting, eco-friendly jobs. Even the horses have catch bags under their asses. Saves stepping in a pile of horseshit!
