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 - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
