jobs? In my opinion ANY checks sent out to Americans for stimulus will not be used to buy anything that will increase or create jobs here in the USA, where that spent money will find its way through the system of "job creation". While every one blames the economy on George Bush because of the war, well I do not buy that, because so far I have not seen any of my taxes increase to pay for it, other than property taxes. What I can only come to figure for the causes are that for 10-12 years we have seen how many millions of jobs leave our country, I remember certain politicians saying that X amount of jobs were created, but all I see out there are part time, low wage, maybe some full time, no benefit jobs. I seen a real estate bubble that grew and created a very large quantity of home building related jobs, but really , that market growth should never have happened like it did, and all it did was create a mask for the amount manufacturing and other related jobs that left, for good. With no one making a decent income anymore, unless you are in certain field (which not every can be), how can Americans expect things to turn around. The amount of jobs available to sustain "the American dream" which simply now is a home and a vehicle and health coverage, seem non existent. How can we turn the economy around when we have such a lack of US products being produced, which really causes a lack of jobs, which causes a lack of income, which causes a lack of cash flow per American, which causes a lack of bank borrowing, which comes right back again to lack of demand for products because no one can afford to buy something that would keep their brother or sister employed. I just don"t see what can help, all I can see is we need to some how give companies a reason to come back to the US. How, With the lay"s off announced just today, and the lay offs logged at the site some one posted earlier. I cant see how anything can turn around anytime in the near future. What do you guys think? Reason I am writing this is because I am seeing ALOT of folks looking at losing what they have, even folks that planned ahead, had savings, college educations, and seemed to be doing things smart.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: What's The "Stuckest" You've Ever Been? - by Edited by Kim Pratt. Another great discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I was about 14 (part of the problem) when I got stuck. I was disking with a cab equipped IH 966. The window was dirty and I was driving into the evening sun. It was hard to see and it was my first pass down the field. I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
