Will the USA public hand over the auto jobs?
If we buy them we outsource the jobs.
The government will raise our taxes because we
won't have jobs and we know congress is'nt intelligent
enough to realize where tax dollars come from and they will
outsource more jobs and print more money and our country will
decline. The way of Rome, Great Britan, Germany, Portugal, Neatherlands,
and all the other countries back thru history.

2010's Top 10 Contracts

These big government contractors should be doing a lot of hiring.

Federal Hiring Event For People With Disabilities

APRIL 26, 2010
Have you explored opportunities to work for the Federal government, but were overwhelmed by the application process?
Do you want to work in an environment that embraces diversity and inclusion and the talent you offer?
Are you interested in a career opportunity with benefits and the potential for career progression?
Are you a Veteran with a 30% or more disability rating who wants to extend your service to your Nation?

GSA Domestic Per Diem Rates

This is an excellent site to determine or compare
per diem rates if you are a contractor working at least
50 miles from home. Save on those taxes when ever you can.

Rich Guy Feeling Left Out

How unfortunate.
I know this is probably satire.
It's just so difficult to tell anymore.
I mean, these people truely live in a different world.
Which leads you to believe that there may be truth here.

Fed IT Jobs

There should be a lot of IT work here.
Unless they outsource them to India.

Bernanke On Joblessness

DUhhhh....

An Uncomfortable Fact About Oil

Hopefully all this possible drilling will improve the
job climate. There would also be 2 or 3 support jobs for
every one job in the oil industry. That's the good news
in the "oil decline" story. The bad news is they wouldn't
last a lifetime.

DHS Hiring

Well, it's good that they are jobs.
It's not really good that they are
government jobs. But they are jobs.

British Defense Giant Buys VT Group

Foriegn corporations buying U.S. corportations has always
had a blurring affect on outsourcing. Some jobs stay and
some jobs go.

Boeing Tankers

I'm sure this would create American jobs.
However, Boeing outsources parts of its aircraft.
Engines are made by GE, Rolls Royce, Pratt Whitney etc.
Also brakes cables even the wings are outsourced for most
commercial aircraft. A lot of these components are made
in other countries. So don't get to excited about bashing
Airbus. It's a political thing.

Lost Green Jobs

I still say; why don't the guys in Washington understand?
When corporations outsource jobs to India and China they
are getting rid of their own tax base. Yet they keep expecting
us, unemployeed or not, to keep paying taxes.
What's wrong with this picture??

Inherently Government Jobs ??

Maybe this will open up some public sector jobs.

Florida Job Fair

I recieved an email from Senator LeMieux with this link embedded.
It's another job research tool. Good luck !!

Outsourcing

As long as this outsourcing is to companies
within the United States. Fine. The government
should keep all the jobs here.
Why is it that our government still doesn't get
the idea, when you push jobs out of this country
you destroy the tax base. And they continue to
raise taxes. Who's suppose to pay taxes without
a job. It's so simple that I can understand it.
And I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed.

More Oil In Old Oil Fields

This should add a few jobs in California.

Jobless Claims

I guess it's gonna be slow recovery.

Jobless Claims Bill

This is good for the unemployed.
Although I'm not sure of the impact a

unemployed. It would exempt employers from
Social Security payroll taxes on new hires
who were unemployed.

MS DLC

(click title for link)
If you are not in the workforce right now
it would be wise to get a certificate for this.

It's free.
It couldn't hurt.

Stimulus-Funded High Speed Rail Likely To Lose Money And Be Built By Chinese Companies

Why is it that congress & local government expect
corporations to retain jobs here in this country
and then turn around and outsource and in some states
sell our infrastructure to foreign intrests.
If you remember there are toll roads in northern Indiana
and Illinois that now belong to business in other countries.
Our ports are controlled by business in other countries.
If the Chinese build our high speed rail systems with
their technology and money, will they then own the infrastruture?
We, with our dollars, pay for these projects. Then, after they
are built, we pay to ride and if they don't break even, we
pay to subsidize.
Why do we have ITAR laws?
Why do the idiots in Washington wonder why the tax base
is shrinking?
They are giving it all away.........
