A letter that shows the hurt that the BFEE is putting on REAL families .
Not the entire letter but enough to show the desperation that some people are feeling now. It's one thing to imagine the troubles that more, and more, people face and quite another to have to try to solve their problems as a part of your job.

==========================================
"Good Morning...I am not really sure why I am writing this this morning....except for the prospect of find help and hope. Over the last two years we have gone from the top of the world to a small whole in the pit of the earth it seems. So I am racking my brain for some direction and informaiton."

J.
==========================================

So this is how "Trickle Down" works? That tax cut sure has been a god-send for this family.:eyes:

Cheap Labor Conservatives win another wage slave because this person will take whatever is available. Somehow I envision WalMart profiting from this...

It seems like everytime I think that I've reached the acme of my anger something like this gets shoved in my face and a new level of apoplectic hatred (for the vultures in our society) is reached.

Yippifuckingdoo.

No, it's not a Nigerian scam letter...Trust me.

1. THe repug plan for the economy:
Serfdom for the majority of us. Castles for the few. With appropriate battlements to keep the serfs at bay.

4. They are tying their own rope.
Amazing how the lessons of history are ignored.

2. unfortunate
myself i'm considering going with the flow... i applied to work in the forestry maintaining fences and the like... low pay, outdoors... when they need professional software architects, if ever again in my lifetime, i'll at least have a tan.. :-)

cheap labour neocons are sooooo out of touch, i would not be surprised to see an unthinkable reversal of fortune for them once campaign finance comes in to force and media regulation also... likely they will become a permanent pervert party wishing for power sort of like britain's tories... unfortunately we must endure the downward tension of their sickness to build the momentum to exterminate the evil scum.

3. Isn't it amazing how hard the tech people have been hit?
I'm 35 years old and remember the transitionary talk about moving from heavy industry, manufactururing, to tech jobs.

15 years ago, 10 years ago, 5 years ago, it was said that the tech workers were golden...

Now you'll be golden but that's from the Sun (the real one, no microsystems one) not Intel!
