My name is Chris W. Long and I am a songwriter in Nashville, TN. I have written a song that I think would be a great campaign song. It’s called “My Collar’s Blue”. It’s all about bringing in and creating jobs here in America. Let’s renew our pride in the American work ethic. That’s what this song is about. I would like to send it to you in a small attachment via MP3. I am currently pitching it in Nashville to some major country artists. Please respond if you would like to hear this song and consider it for your candidate.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Chris W. Long

So that we too can enjoy 13 year olds working 16 hour days in factories for 70 cents per hour, pollution in our air and waters to poison us and working conditions that render you maimed or too sick to work by the time you reach your 40s at which point you are pitched on the street like yesterdays garbage? Is this the “level playing field” you are seeking?

Most US corporations actually pay no taxes whatsoever. General Electric, for example, actually paid NEGATIVE taxes for the last 5 years, receiving money from the government for their 14000 page tax return.

The future of employment in America is a game of musical chairs with ever-fewer chairs remaining. And of course the remaining companies would like us all to have doctoral degrees (and the associated non-dischargeable debt to work off) while serving hamburgers or cleaning toilets. Slavery never looked so good.

You used the commons we all paid for.

Shut up and pay your taxes which I hope will be raised when Obama wins reelection.
