Meanwhile back in reality, something bush has no clue about...
An announcement of a Michigan School District laying OFF 3200 employees...
ONE District laying off
Thirty Two Hundred - Three Thousand Two Hundred
The list goes on... our local largest district is not rehiring etc but so far hasn't resorted to layoffs. Of course parents are more and more having to pay for ANY and all extra-curricular activities. Even basic art supplies are in low supply. IF a school has comps, they are p1's for the most part. Some have a little better puters, can we say donations? (usually they are donated)
Small towns are laying off Police AND Firefighters or just not rehiring, and they are usually understaffed as is. So much so that even when they are at 'full strength' the neighboring fire depts most always have to help unless its a small grill fire. Umm, travel time from one small town to another is not in a few minutes but 20-30-40 minutes. So if you catch fire... just grab the cat and get the car back so you have somewhere to sleep.
The problem with listening to the job related BS is they do NOT include Public Employees in the mix. Add those jobs in and you'd see the truth thru the Real Worlds eyes. Ask any Republican, they will tell you! Oh wait, NO they won't.
Jobs are in a DISMAL State at best.
