Here Today, Michigan Tommorrow

Can anyone tell me why President Bush and the United States Congress and Senate are so worried about Myanmar and Iraq when they have a devastating issue going on right inside the borders of the domestic United States? Is President Bush staying hands off from the problem in Michigan because he knows that his economic policies are the reason Michigan is in the situation it is? Michigan has lost so many jobs over the last four years that it can no longer meet its own needs based on tax revenue generation. Michigan legislatures are talking about raising taxes on the few who are still lucky enough to have jobs in Michigan but the real problem is not being addressed. America imports far more than it exports and thus a negative trade balance is continually growing and unless this problem gets fixed Michigan will just be the first domino in a large chain of dominoes to fall. Michigan has lost so many jobs it cannot even meet its state budget and we are left to ask, ‘How many more jobs will America lose?’ The unions are trying to do all they can to save American jobs and the American Middle Class Worker but they need help a lot of help. Americans struggle to maintain their jobs and lifestyle working for companies they helped build the last half a century in the United States. However, many American companies are now cowardly hiding under the term ‘multi-national’ company and they are cutting and slashing American jobs at a rate most could not believe if they seen the actual reports. These outsourcing bastards are closing American plants and outsourcing the work to slave labor countries where cut-throat policies and practices are the norm and any concern for humanity is thrown to the wolves. These yellow bellied companies then have the nerve to ship the products back into America and say they are selling American made products when in reality these products are made by workers caught in slave labor and human trafficking situations.

Just how bad does it have to get before someone steps up and addresses the real problems with the American economy, the outsourcing of our country and its ability to support itself.
