Allow me to share my FB rant, re: Jobs and kittens...

Okay, enough kittens...if you're to believe the GOP, the corporations sitting on billions and billions of profits can't hire people because they're "concerned" about what Obama is going to do. They are "uncertain." BULLSHIT. Ford Motor Company proves it...they're hiring. Sales are booming, they need more workers. They aren't cowering under their executive desks fearful that the Kenyan Muslim Socialist Communist Fascist Gun Grabber is about to make them provide health care for their workers. Ford wants to make money and return value to its shareholders.

Stop the bullshit. Mitch McTurtle and John Boner have spent four years on the government dole, doing NOTHING but trying to cock-block the President. Ford Motor Company knows that to meet market demand, you need to hire people. If you CREATE JOBS, you hire people. If you just squirrel a billion dollars under your Cayman Islands mattress, you help no one but yourself.

who deal with stagnant wages, decreasing benefits, rising costs of education, energy and healthcare, and worry that their job will be the next one sent overseas. If corporations would just pay better and provide more secure working environment more people would be able to afford to buy their product. Corporations sitting on cash are slowly killing themselves and their product to enrich CEOs appease stockholders.
