You are NOT lost, Palmer, this DID all start long before Obama resided in the White House. Many of Packard's salaried employees chose not to be union members, and when GM transferred everything to Delphi, these folks should have known it was now a different ballgame. They may feel "entitled", just like the union members, but they have/had no contract. If the funds aren't there, not much anyone can do....if the situation was (and may be someday) reversed, the "salaried' folks couldn't care less about the rank and file union members. Funny how so many "company men" now claim to be disgruntled Democrats....
"NoBs" is correct...no one is safe against idiots like this. The judge should have added five years to the sentence for anyone stupid enough to think GM only built one model Cadillac of that color and trim......
Can't understand why folks in his district elect a person who wants to cut SS and eliminate medicare.....must be all young folks in Columbiana County.....
"explain to me how they can spend 1.3 million...." It is my understanding that these were ALL private donations....nothing to do with the Diocese, taxpayers money or politicians......
Not rich (by any stretch), but the "rich" pay into SS and Medicare just like everyone else and can receive the same (not less or more) than any other retiree. Secondly, I'm a life-long Dem, but taking more from the rich will not solve the vast budget deficit. Lastly, workers in China ,Japan, Mexico, and the rest of the world contribute no taxes or SS payments to America's coffers.
Someone NOT connected with the Obama campaign (or any other one's campaign) should NOT trigger any response from the President in favor or opposed to whatever statement was made. Best advice to Romney, the President, or anyone else running for office is to let the remarks die (as soon as the media will permit them to) since they are usually meaningless....
I think that it must be that the X and Y generations have been spoiled and they have a "me" attitude about everything. They have their "agenda" and everyone else needs to step aside. You are invisible as far as they are concerned and it's obvious there is no teaching of manners at home or at school. Even when dining at a restaurant, the "servers" (I use the term loosely) act like they are doing you a big favor. I always considered myself a "good tipper", but I think it's time to eat at home more often and cut the gratuity on the rare occasions when I will venture out..........
Justice is disappearing in U.S.
