Mr. Cantor (R-VA) says that the creation of jobs should be left to the private sector. My question to Mr Cantor is this... Have you really taken a good look at what some businesses in this country have done to rape the workforce? Part of the very same private sector is not willing to pay a serious wage to the Americans that are out of work. It is the business owners and CEO's of corporations that find it necessary to "outsource" work to other countries so that they can fatten the bottom line. I understand that a lot of people have invested in these businesses and that this is a way for them to make some additional money, but, does it make a lot of sense to do it at the cost to their fellow countryman? Does it make sense to buy more and more of the supplies, needed to make the products that these companies sell, from other countries? What is wrong with OUR manufacturers?
Mr Cantor, can you or your fellow congress members answer these questions? How do you explain the laying off of thousands of employees from a company (to cut costs) and the CEO manages to negotiate a $200M+ contract with this same company. How in the name of God can one person, that is part of the reason those people are out of work, justify such a vulgar salary. I feel that the president of the United States has just as a demanding job as any CEO and yet he doesn't even make $1M.
If we are to create jobs in this country, we need to put this country back to work. Stop buying as much from overseas markets. Stop enabling illegals to work in this country. As the owners and CEO's of these businesses, work on solving the problem from within our country. You folks are ruining this country because of your greed. Why do you think the people are protesting (Occupy Wall Street). You got your bailout money to keep your businesses afloat. I don't understand why you felt like you needed a full salary, AND bonuses, since it appears that you weren't able to do you jobs adequately. You are the captains of the ships and you let the ships sink. I don't know of another person that can go to work, perform less than adequately, still get paid AND still be permitted to report back to work!
What are you thoughts?

The first rant
Today I start putting some of my feelings in type. I don't know that I will have any/many viewers, but I will try to present articles that are engaging. I don't claim to be an expert or authority on a lot of the issues that are out there currently, but I do have a "why can't we change it" attitude.
I hope that those who do post will use the same type of language they would use in front of their young children. If you do use that type of vulgar and abusive language in front of your children, please, don't use it here. I look forward to your support and participation.
