A Jobless Dilemma: What's Wrong With Fort Wayne?
Lots of Jobs Are Available, But 14,600 People There Are Still Looking for Work. It's all about skills. Companies can't find workers. Workers can't find jobs. People don't have skills. Companies won't train. Low pay service jobs go begging. People grow up and have not worked so they have no work skiils to even train.

Midwest City's Jobless Point to Fed Dilemma

A historically high unemployment rate in Fort Wayne, Ind., aggravated by a mismatch between skills and applicants, available and desired pay may show the future of U.S. employment over the long run.

This may be the only salvation for this state. Of course the President opposed it, the unions opposed it, the democrats walked out...etc etc yadda yadda. Good for your Gov Snyder. Takes guts to be right.

Right to work BILL

LANSING, MI (WTVB) - Over the noisy protests of hundreds of union members, the Republican majority in Lansing Thursday pushed controversial “right to Work” bills

The three quotations below carry virtually the same message, yet come from very different sources:

"Aid is just a stop-gap. Commerce [and] entrepreneurial capitalism takes more people out of poverty than aid."
"In dealing with pove

rty here and around the world, welfare and foreign aid are a Band-Aid. Free enterprise is a cure."
"Entrepreneurship is the most sure way of development."

Once a person becomes mature and gets past the "free stuff as mercy delusion", they always come to these conclusions. ALWAYS. This is from an economist, a Rock Star and the President of an African Country. Which is which? By the way, if you want to "FIX" the economic conditions and chronic unemployment in Chicago, Cleveland, LA, Detroit, the same truths apply. AID and MERCY in the form of money does nothing. NOTHING. We have squandered our potential and allowed the most ignorant among us to condition us to believe otherwise. Read that politicians.

Rockstar Capitalism in the Developing World | Values & Capitalism

On November 12, in a speech at Georgetown University, U2's Bono (quote #1) discussed the role of enterprise and capitalism in alleviating global poverty. For a rock star whose travels to developing nations and advocacy of foreign aid are well known, this recent focus on commerce has surprised many o...

The racism and corruption that has brought Detroit to this point is the topic of much speculation. Detroit at one time had the most prosperous African American Community in the whole of the USA. Riots in 1967 (where the population burned

down their own communities and the job infrastructure (kinda like what happened in Chicago in 68) pushed the job creators out of town. It's over. Detroit can only be saved by destroying the destroyers. Unions. Corrupt Government (think Kwame Kilpatrick), bad policy and the cops who have aggravated the situation. I don't know if it can be saved.

State laying groundwork for managed bankruptcy for Detroit

Even as the state Treasury prepares to begin another financial review of Detroit's books, a plan is being solidified in the governor's office that would guide Michigan's largest city through what is being called a managed bankruptcy.

LOL.... In all seriousness, this is one bad law. We have to watch out for drunk drivers, now we have to watch out for drivers high on weed.

Failing Up With Susan Rice

Benghazi was not the first African fiasco for the would-be secretary of state. Ms. Rice's misadventures in Africa began nearly two decades ago when, as a 28 year-old McKinsey consultant with an Oxford Ph.D. (her dissertation was on Zimbabwe), she joined Bill Clinton's National Security Council.

 

MEN FAVOR POT LEGALIZATION BY BIG MARGINS, WHILE WOMEN OPPOSE IT: Reader Jane Vawter responded: “Women don’t like pot for the most part. It’s a man drug. What they really don’t like is a useless, stoned man…pot makes you stupid, poor company and a poor provider.”

Hey, Let's Seceede Or Start a Revolution... Said the Left in 2005

This is a good point: Although liberals are laughing at conservatives' frustrations and the very human responses to it, they themselves experienced similar frustrations, and had similar responses to them, after Bush's reelection.

REMEMBER the left's saying, Bush Lied, People Died? Well he DIDN'T lie. There Were WMDs. I knew it. Many knew it. BUT we couldn't convince anyone. NOW WHAT?? Lies are lies... even if you believe them.
