<<First of all ... I'm going to repeat this simply because it makes the whiners so unbelievably angry. Listen up. They're not your jobs! The jobs belong to the employers .. not to you! You have job skills and, presumably, a willingness to work. Your task in a free economy is to get out there and find some employer with a job who needs your skills ... and strike a deal.>> Very true. Put the barbarian hordes of ambulance-chasers behind barbed wire; stop STEALING from the employers and transferring it to the Social Security welfare queens; and abolish the FRAUD of the hidden income tax assessed on "corporate income"-and there's not a job anywhere here that would be more economical over THERE. We get what we ASK for. And we have engaged in the folly of ASKING to price ourselves out of the global job market. It's a question of Wise Up or Die...

Yeah, yeah, jobs. Who wants them, huh?! After all, uncle Greenspan is giving us credit cards by the dozen, so let's go have some booze this afternoon. It's getting too boring these days in the afternoons.

Your task in a free economy is to get out there ... Translation : You need a passport to get out there, so apply for one today! Either develop a new set of job skills that are actually in demand, or adjust your pricing. Translation : Learn to flip burgers. For $2 an hour. The mouse is assembled in China and shipped back, then sold for around $40. Translation : Buy it for $40 here. But since you don't have a job (and hence no money), use your credit card. At a time when America is fighting World War IV, the war against Islamic terrorism ... you're going to vote for a candidate who wants to treat terrorism as a freaking law enforcement problem because you've made some pitiful jobs choices. Translation: The ideal job choice would have been to become a writer or a radio talkshow host and then label everybody else a "whiner"! If that was not what you chose, tough luck! ;-)
