I really do not want to make this a political statement but I feel strongly that what America needs is a lot less regulations and a lot more free enterprise. Where would we be today if they fined the heck out of Thomas Edison for running a factory in his barn and osha came down on him for safety regulations that shut him down. It used to be that government workers settled for less pay than the private sector because they were given job security. It was hard for them to get fired. Now it is impossible for them to get fired and if they do they get the taxpayers money for the rest of their life even if they have no qualifications or skills. The private sector would scoop up the go getters and basically you would be paid for job performance. I would hate to be an employer now. The government telling me who to hire what state I can or cannot build in and the healthcare mess.
They really need to get there stuff together in Washington before it gets so bad the whole nation is on welfare. I guess the government plans on making a killing on Steve Jobs inheritance tax so they are already planning on how best to blow it.
God rest his soul.
Good Luck in your job hunt I know it is tough out there right now.
God Bless.
