10. Investments that produce jobs? Uh yeah well . too bad they're mostly....
Edited on Wed Apr-05-06 11:13 AM by WePurrsevere
overseas in India, etc. :grr:

The few that are "created" here are at places like Walmarts, Dollar General, McDonald's, etc. It's rather sad... I remember being encouraged by my guidance counselor and then my daughters guidance counselor encouraging kids to "go to college and get a degree so you won't have to spend your life asking 'would you like fries with that?" and yet increasingly that's the only type of job many of my fellow well educated contemporaries can find.

From what I've seen... "trickle down" never trickles down far enough and now close enough to make any difference to average American's desparate for jobs and a living wage.

edited for a typo & an extra thought.
