colekicker said: (quoted from post at 13:13:51 11/12/09) Does anybody remember the story of chicken little? She asked for help, but nobody helped her. But when the bread was done, everybody wanted a piece.
Here is the problem. If everybody wants a piece, they need to work for their piece.
The president's idea that if you give a little bit more to help somebody else is all well and good. Most of us do this anyway. We just don't want to be forced to do it.
When push comes to shove is that we have gotten to a situation where many think they just deserve a piece of the pie, regardless if they planted, watered, harvested, prepared or baked the pie.
My mom had a saying, too many chiefs, not enough indians. Seems that is what the govt has become. They all want to tell us we need to give more, but I don't see them giving at all.
I think the US govt should run itself like Texas. They have to have a balanced budget. If they can't balance the budget, then why pay those senators, congressmen and white house staff. Freeze the taxes where they are. No new ones. They have to manage the money we are currently paying in.
my 2 cents
Thankyou Colekicker, WELL PUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the rest of the responders don't get the idea.................. Guess maybe a little more Fox new instead of CNN. I am extremely happy in life, i guess common sense has flew the coop on the Hill.
I just didn't want to put it in black and white for all the cnn watchers.
Still interested in pay for a hired hand though. Not for myself, just a general idea across the country. I have friends who are a little younger and don't know where to get a job. They are on unemployment and are losing their desire to look for work. I remember in 84, i grew up in minnesota and i had enough. I went to Austin Texas , and learned to frame houses. 10 bucks an hour back then, cash. If you were from minnesota you were hired on the spot. Good work ethics from the area is what i was told.
I tell these laid off concrete, construction guys . Find the work it aint in Illinois , and wont be for a long time with our political regime now.
I know georgia isn't to bad in a few places. Warrner Robin AFB area is fair.
I think the oil fields out west are hiring ,???? correct me if i am wrong.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
