Septembers numbers- 161,000 more jobs are lost. Unemployement rate rises to 6.1%. WE WILL SEE DOUBLE DIGET UNEMPLOYMENT! We have lost nearly 800,000 jobs this year alone in America. Some due to companies moving over seas where they don't have to be burdened by enviornmental laws or ethical employment regulations. Most though are due to the recent crumble of the American economy. The part that they keep "forgetting" to mention is that our population continues to climb upward rapidly and in order to keep pace with employment needs from those new births entiring the job market, we must add over 100,000 jobs each month just to stay in pace. This is not happening so add the 1,000,000 jobs not created to fill those needs to the 800,000 lost and you get a very disturbing picture! A picture that is darkening by the minute!

The campaigns have taken different sides on an issue....can you imagine that? One side(will leave nameless) says the problem is we need more oversight and bigger Government. While the other(we will leave them nameless too) believes Government is too big and reform is needed. What we really need is niether! What we need is for the politicians that have been choosen, actually hired, to JUST DO THE JOB THEY WERE CHOOSEN AND HIRED TO DO! If they were employed at a company, they would have all been fired by now. Maybe we should outsource for a group to take over control....And then send those fired employees/politicians overseas!

I fear we are in the "End Of Days" So many signs so many ways. The skies they fill with birds of prey, the beasts they lie in wait. The armies mass on every shore, they wont be held at bay. It has been foreseen and told what is to come, back into the earth from which we sprang from. Why must this happen and who if any will be left? The rest taken in a violent theft. Rivers run red from the blood of the dead and a stench permiates the air. It is not fair. But who ever told us that life was fair? It's eat or be eaten, eat or become fare. If this is to be, what do we do? How do we prepare? I do not scare easy yet every cell of my body trembles in fear.......It is near. The skies are darkening, clouds black as coal obscure the light and thunder in the far. Not far enough, oh how I fear this night. I Feel it just as I feel the warmth of the sun on my face or a cold wind blowing down the spine of my back. Could we have done something to change, that which now seems incredable and inevitable? Was free will a gift that was not understood. Helping us make choices of that which we shouldn't or that which we should. Gaining on us, we'll soon be over run, the twilight of mankind the final countdown has begun. Eternal darkeness awaits. We are approaching midnight on a clock that has no am. But only for we the bell tolls the universe is not of space or time. It can not be explained in a silly rhyme. It was before us and it we be after. It will come a day when that tree falls and it will always make noise but it will not always be heard..........

No matter what decision is reached regarding the crisis we all find ourselves, it will undoubtly be the working class that is going to get the short end of the stick. AGAIN! The debate should continue as scheduled. Now is when we want to hear directly what each canidate thinks and how they differ in what direction the Government should go to get us out of, if thats even possible, the present day dilemma!

Call it what you want "bailout" or "rescue" it doesn't change what it is........ The 700,000,000 dollar BAILOUT (seven hundred Billion dollars)of Wall st. will not solve our problems! The other lenders that are near collapse are all ready linning up with the expectation that they too will get bailed out by our tax dollars. The auto industry and credit card companies are just waiting, then they too will put their hand in our pockets. They will say, "why not them"? If we bailed out the mortgage industry then they should receive the same. That will double, at the very least, the amount needed to keep our economy from collapsing or in reality from (further) collapsing. There should be no bailout! Let the cards lie where they fall. The private sector will eventually scoop up those companies at pennies on the dollar and then and only then can things start to stabilize! The "Oracle of Omaha" Warren Buffet has all ready started the process by buying 5 billion dollars of substantially devalued Goldman Sacks stock. Let those who have holdings in the very companies that caused the problem take the fall! FYI- All those still lucky enough to have over 100,000 dollars in banks and feel safe because the FDIC(Federal Deposite Insurance Corperation) is there to "insure" you wont lose your money. 11 regional banks have failed and now the largest bank ever to fail in history, Washington Mutual, has also tanked. This has brought the FDIC close to a point where it can no longer guarentee your funds are safe in ANY BANK! They haven't broadcast that because if they did, then pandamonium would break out and it would lead to a "run" on the banks. It is sad day when the best and safest place to have youir money is in a shoe box under your bed. Ponder the possibilities. Then you might just want "to sleep on it"! Here is a stock tip- Find a publicly held company that builds safes. Yes, safes those heavy duty "self storage" facilities for your valubales. More and more people will begin to literally take hold of thier own finances. Some will purchase hard assets like gold or diamonds which they will need a "safe" place to store. Investing in "safes" might just be your "safest" bet.
