    Okay, but when the project is complete guess what-back to the unemployment line.
    Even better than that, and no offense to those in construction here, but have any of you folks driven through a section of road "improved" by the American Reinvestment projects? At best, you don't notice a difference. At worst (and more commonly) the road is chip sealed and develops more potholes, sometimes ending up worse than it was before, with tree trunk sized speed bumps at either end of the construction. Not a fan of the gov't work I've seen so far, or the pace at which it proceeds...


    Wonder how much his campaign stop cost us in tax dollars?

    I have a drainage canal on my street that was recently worked on with all the signs and shit. The good: it looks pretty. The bad: drainage is worse and anytime it rains the whole fucking street floods. Can't wait to see some snow melt carrying my car away .

    The up side of the bill is LAWSUIT. I'm going to school to be a lawyer at least 10 years of job security right there. Seriously sue because you didn't get a job.

    I read that this morning- big 'ol bunch of steaming bullshit. If I were the head of a company that refused to hire someone and they tried to file suit against me for "discrimination" guess what? I'd file a counter suit (because I know that someone who's unemployed can afford a damn good lawyer) and ruin their existence.

    But they are entitled to a job, just ask anyone who works at MEPS! "Sign here sir and you have a job for at least 8 years!"
