Sorry to hear you guys aren't working. This economy scares the crap out of me. Jobs gone overseas and the manufacturers wondering where their customers went, duh. Foreclosures (really bad mojo in my book) means that there are too many houses and no money to pay for them so why build. The working man's shoulders hold this country aloft, and when he gets knocked off his feet, then what? My business is booming, people are repairing their cars and not buying new. The boss wants me to work crazy overtime but I can't , too old and tired, so he puts in a second shift, which is fine by me , more guys have jobs, not a bad thing. We're in for a rocky road in the next 2 years, I figure. We're all in this together, we're all connected..

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
