		<description><![CDATA[Heck yeah, why work full-time with a company that covers their part of taxes and might offer benefits further bettering my compensation when I can work for myself without a guarantee of getting anything tomorrow. I mean sure it works for some, but we all can&#039;t run our own businesses. More power to the people that do, but again it isn&#039;t for everyone.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Meanwhile you&#039;re using a computer, tablet, laptop, phone, etc. Hmmmm.
These devices aren&#039;t making humans fat, lazy, and dumb. It&#039;s our society that does that. If our society geared these technological advances to be mainly the pathway to higher knowledge and productivity then we would be in a better position. In some ways it&#039;s an individual thing for different people. I know some people that grew up loathing to read, but found joy in reading once they discovered eBooks. There are so many apps and potential apps that can help better organization and motivate people better, but it does no good if people don&#039;t care.
Simple fact is people just don&#039;t care. This isn&#039;t to generalize everyone. Some people care, but the majority of people don&#039;t care.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I honestly believe the government needs to create more jobs. You can nag and complain about it all you want, but let&#039;s think about it.
Sales Revenue in US soon will reach $5 trillion/year if it hasn&#039;t already. I remember looking that up. I&#039;m not sure if this is just in retail alone, but if it is then the numbers alone help my case.
$50 billion plan to job 1.25 million Americans. This can be accomplished by a 1% federal sales tax. Pay could range from 30,000-50,000. 2% sales tax to extend the number of workers or including cost beyond labor.

As a developed country we should pride ourselves in having a nation where a larger percentage of working age people are working, the community are clean, and advancements are made to better our communities. All my life I&#039;ve gone up and down streets acknowledging trash littered throughout the sides of roads and even in creek/river areas. I never could understand how we let ourselves become so filthy. Growing up I was always told that people volunteer and serve community service through their probation officer after doing a crime. With that said I always remember seeing the same trash stay in specific spots for weeks. To this day I continue to see trash remain in spots for days. I never make an uproar about it because I know I could very well spend a day off from work to walk down my community and clean it up. Honestly I keep telling myself I&#039;m going to do it, but after working a full week sometimes I don&#039;t feel like doing anything. So I talk myself out of doing anything.

This probably seems like a small insignificant task to consider a job, but it&#039;s not much different than places that have janitor/maintenance workers/contractors. This is only one example. There are probably way more ideas to better our nation in multiple ways.
I just know that creating that many jobs in a short period of time would be an immediate benefit to the economy and help it continue to grow. Now that we are working on getting out of a recession it is absolutely necessary that we figure ways to improve the economy. 1.25 million jobs added means 1.25 million potential more people to turn back around, pay taxes through income and sales, and contribute to businesses(big and small).
The better business becomes for businesses the better their able to provide for their workers and themselves create more jobs. If I&#039;m a small business owner gaining a lot of business with my one location open, eventually that would lead to opening more locations, this would involve creating more jobs.
This problem with no jobs actually created is the result of many jobs disappearing. Tons of layoffs result in the image and reality of job growth not occurring. That is sadly the case of what we&#039;ve experienced over these years. We need to let our voice be heard to move forward. 

BTW looking at federal sales tax wasn&#039;t to necessarily say it&#039;s the way to go. I&#039;m a fan of the idea that our high sales in America can do wonderful things for our economy and our future. With that said I&#039;m not naive enough to say it could replace the income (personal/corporate) altogether with what our current spending is.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our total population is a little over 300 million according the Bureau of Labor Statistics.  If you take out children and the elderly that aren&#039;t working that only leaves a little over 210 million working age adults. It is not possible half of all working adults are unemployed or not in the workforce. This article is full of crap.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Uh, I wouldn&#039;t be so keen on legal immigration anymore either. The Federal government runs four work visa programs. Three of those programs do not require the employer to pay any taxes or benefits.


So, who do you think businesses hire first? The American that the government makes them pay taxes on, or the foreign worker who, because of his status, can&#039;t quit? They can treat him like an indentured servant, cheat him on wages, pay no taxes for him, and it&#039;s (mostly) legal.


Everything that is happening now is deliberate, top down bottom up. Government regulation crushes small business and stifles competition, while welfare programs demolish the work ethic, creating a defeated, compliant population. We are literally being turned into sharecrop tenants in our own country. If this next amnesty goes through, we are finished. The future of the whole country is already being showcased in California. We were never the land of fruits and nuts. It only looks that way. The reality is that, thanks to the machinations of people such as George Soros, California was the first state to become the land of rigged elections.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[MICHAEL. Your article is misleading..

The 89,967,000 figure is  the number of Americans &quot;not in the labor force&quot;. That includes those too young to work, the retired , those institutionalized and those in the military.

Those numbers have always been high.

 Pease correct your mistake]]></description>
