If not in a Union you won’t need “Road Crew Attire”

Written in the stimulus bill is clause that all money spent on state projects such as road repairs and other construction “must be union wages”. I do not see how they can get away with this considering many states such as Texas and Florida are “Right to Work States’. Unions cannot force or make a major push with any type of intimidation in these states. They are not suppose to even be able to picket but they do and they scare clients with just their presence.

To all of those who are pounding their chests saying Unions are needed to make a fair living need to do your homework. When Unions were formed was a different time. Minimum wages were not in place and people were working for practically nothing. Back then it was needed but we have out grown them. It’s is really a type of discrimination which is suppose to be against the law. Now we have a Department of Labor which you can take your grievances.  Not that you will get a quick or even positive result because they are part of the corrupt government.  I’d still rather deal with them then a Union.

It’s no secret that the Unions always have and always will be connected to the mob. Remember Jimmy Hoffa, where is he? Anyone seen him lately? Unions are breaking this country, sending  jobs across the border and overseas. Whats amazing is they don’t care!

Obama is paying back a campaign promise which will keep many Americans out of work. Union dues are not cheap. Getting into one is not easy, they are a close net group. So basically if you’re not in one you can’t even work on a road crew.

As far as the Card Check goes how can that be put in place through the Federal Government and force it on a “Right to Work State”. There are many that are and the Federal Government cannot force them to allow the Unions to attack our companies especially without a secret vote. If that happens the wars will began because the American people have had enough!

According to the stimulus bill unless you are a member of a Union you will not need one of these. But if you are Walmart can set you right up with all your road crew needs.

Walmart on board with Obama’s new job creation.

While walking through Walmart I realized they may be in this stimulus plan. They have everything you need to work on a road crew. Obama is promising us millions of new jobs as road crew workers to rebuild our interstate infrastructure. So all the finance workers from Wall Street and other working professionals that have lost thier jobs and only have buisness suits in their closet, Walmart has what you will need and it is affordable since you are unemployed and few dollars to spend.

Thanks you Walmart I know your trying to help and make a huge buck while your doing it!

Walmart and McDonalds get tons of free advertising

Most of us have no idea what tomorrow brings. Will you have a job or a home? But the media seems to think Walmart and McDonald’s are doing great. Promoting them saying everyone is eating at McDonald’s because it’s all anyone can afford and Walmart has the lowest prices so thats where everyone is shopping. That’s rediculious. It’s just free advertising for these two companies and is unfair to the others. I did compareWalmart  prices against Target over the holidays because Target made a point of saying they were going to match or go lower which they really just matched. But as far as McDonald’s and Walmart being the only place that you can save a buck is wrong.

I went shopping this weekend and was frustrated. The things I needed were not in stock at the 5 Walmarts I went to and believe me I didn’t have to drive more the 2 miles to hit 5 Walmarts. There is one on every corner. I have been in and out of these stores since this has began and thanks to the media it does not matter when you go it’s packed. People pushing and shoving like it’s the last head of lettuce on the planet. The staff is over worked but surprising pleasant. They must be happy they are getting all this free press so they can all keep their jobs. I even saw a huge banner on one Walmart that said “HIRING”.

But they aren’t keeping their stores stocked so I did the unthinkable and went to Kroger. It was not as busy, the media isn’t promoting them 500 times a day so that’s understandable. But the prices were as low if not lower in many areas. Yes a few things cost a few cents more but the gas I would have saved if I had only gone there first would have made it even. I did not have to fight to get down an isle or stand in long lines for 30 minutes or so to check out. It was a great experience and well, the media has “Punked” the public

I also went to Arby’s and they had some specials that were just as low as McDonald’s and thier food is so much better. I think all of these snubed companies that are not being discussed on the news should file a  joint lawsuit against the media monopoly who is deciding where Americans’ should shop and eat.

No Trust In Washington Anymore!!! And we’ll all be working on ROAD CREW’S according to Obama, it seems it may be our future! Hmmm

For the last few months all I have heard is about the “Bail Out Bill” aka “TARP” and how it was supposed to help homeowners with creative crazy insane loans with interest increases, arms and the who know what to be able to refinance. The biggy’s stepped up to the plate and took the welfare from the government but not many homeowners were helped. In fact quite the opposite, foreclosures have been at an all time high. But the insane thing, if there could be any more insanity is that the media blasted that you only qualify for aid if you are 90 days late on your loans. Then they were surprised when people who were current but in theses types of loans said, hey, I want some of that aid so guess what I’ll just QUIT making my house payments.

How could anyone in the media, banks, Wall Street or the North Pole NOT know that was coming. Well, this has not gone over very well, ya think! So now if you don’t have a 760 credit score you can’t get refinanced or even a piece of bubble gum for that matter.

Over a million people have lost their jobs or if they have a job they may be taking a pay reduction. Prices for groceries are sky rocketing and gas prices are on there way back up. It’s easy to say there are few out there with credit scores that our not tanking so I guess the massive amount of people with less then perfect credit will soon be on the streets. That’s pretty sad.

I can’t write this without saying that many of these people did not qualify for the home they were in but a corrupt bank or lender did some magic and got it done. So to be telling them “no loan for you”! After they created this mess is outlandish!

I think the government needs to take a serious look at themselves because people aren’t taking them very seriously. The IRS comes out and says they are going to be a kinder gentler IRS and will work with you to pay any taxes due. I wonder why?  Because the American people have watched Congress and the President hand out the tax payers money to every bankrupt company on the planet and the economy is still in the toilet, yes that could be it!

Maybe the IRS and the politicians are realizing that MAIN STREET ( hate that name, but oh well) does not fear the IRS or the government anymore as they have shown us how uneducated and unqualified they are to be representing the people and our money. Since millions have lost everything and Bernie Madoff lives in a Penthouse paying their taxes is not that important. Why should we trust them with our hard earned money after what they have done.

Obama keeps telling us he is going to spend even more and put the country back to work but all the jobs seem to be road crew jobs. Financial, automakers as well as small business’ that have gone under can’t pay their bills building freeways. It’s crazy!

I feel there is more insanity to come. With all this talk about all the jobs being created by rebuilding our streets and highways maybe President Obama will make a law that your credit score doesn’t matter you just have to commit to working a certain amount of hours on “the road crews” each month and then you can get a loan. Yes, it sounds insane but everything else is just as nuts!

I just don’t see how you can fix this with any of the ideas coming out of Washington.

Walmart did lower there prices through the Christmas season but the first week of January they have gone up almost one dollar to two dollars on almost everything from cat food to t-shirts to try and get it back. That was a low blow. They lowered them so the American public would spend through Christmas this year but who cares if you can afford to feed your family or even make it to next Christmas! Bad bad Walmart!

I have lost faith, never really had it, but I even feel worse about the people running this country! I am tired just thinking about it.

Black Friday or what “Bargain Friday for thoughtless people”!!?

The economy is in the worse shape it’s been in I can’t remember when so when you tell me a man is trampled to death to save a few dollars I should not be shocked but I am. Times have changed and people have become so materialistic. Stores are marking things down so far they are having to lay people off to make even a small profit. It’s just making things worse. The death of a store employee is just unthinkable. I am saddened by this event and hope that people stop and take a look around. It was not food they were stomping that man for but big screen TVs. No one was starving or was gonna die if they did not get it. But because they acted like idiots someone did die for a non essential item.

My prayers go out to the family of the man killed and all that were injured and I also hope and pray even though this has happened before that we learn from this finally and due better planning with door stoppers sales IE more security and coordination to protect the employees and the customers as well.
