create new jobs and bring about a renaissance in American manufacturing.

It is simply NOT going to happen. The majority of those marketing jobs have
been outsourced to other countries, mainly China, where the greed for higher
profits has resulted in lower production in the USA. It's all about the Dollars
and not so much about the sense.

BUT...TALKING about pumping up the JOB and MARKETING and MANUFACTURING
areas is only going to be more "self-serving" while running for re-election
rather than containing any substance to actually help a country that has already
fallen into the precipice of no return.

We are now for sale, have no credit, joblessness is at or above 9%, several wars
being fought that we can't afford nor can we continue to afford both in lives and
dollars, social security being raped by the very government entrusted to protect it
and a myraid of other maladies.

I'm done...and no my political preference has nothing to do with this!
I tried to tell ya, Tyler.... :knuppel2:

Tyler tells me that due to her programming she is able to transcend our political differences and that, however, she should be paid more for these kinds of high risk stories.

Well, given all the valuable information Tyler presents to us, I think a raise is in order. In fact, I think a substantial increase would be fitting. How about you double her salary? :)
