TO POLITICIANS:
If you dont like your states forking out unemployment compensation, STOP THE JOB HEMORRHAGE.
We wrote and called you over twenty years ago about allowing US corporations to leave the country and still feed at the public trough, and ship their stuff back in here for free.
We warned you about allowing cheap, foreign products into the US cheap, while our stuff was taxed to the max overseas.
Did you do anything about it? …… NO!
We warned you about so many things……you got a lot of calls and letters and emails from us…….but you chose to turn your backs on the wishes of the people.
You did not create us……we created you. To represent us and our best interests. We pay for your wonderful healthcare covering your entire families, and give you a fantastic retirement pay and numerous perks. But, you refuse to do the will of the people. You bit the hand that fed you, gave you your start.
You interfered with normal bankruptcy laws by not allowing crook banks to go into normal bankruptcy and by rights should have had their charters removed and shut down…….and you illegally put that enormous burden of the cost on the backs of the taxpayers, 95% WHO TOLD YOU NOT TO VOTE ON THE BAILOUT.
Instead of focusing on your true job, you spend more time making careers out of your temporary jobs. You take bribe money and call it lawful. You are involved in deal making behind closed doors. The further you grow away from the ppl who elected you the more dangerous you become to the welfare of the nation. You now think you call the shots …….and ignore the will of the people who put you in office. You do the will of the people behind the largest bribes. If I had a lawyer like you……I would have fired your butt long ago.
