they haven't cut any jobs as of yet, only a projection

Corporations aren't formed to provide jobs. You're myopic, phobic. I own a corporation. A corporation of 1. I do it to take advantage of the tax breaks. Call me names. At one time I hired 4 full time employees because of the ever growing workload. It reached the point where the healthcare, insurance and taxes that I had to pay was not worth what they were earning for the company. I now take less work and do it all by myself. Its called business. If you don't operate with a gain/loss mentality you fail. Everytime.

You are right Beat----but that is also why there is still 9% unemployment. THOSE JOBS ARENT COMING BACK. Why dont people realize this? Business owners will do more...especially those with huge profits....to make more money and pay less people. With unemployment so high, they can also ensure people will not quit for fear of also being unemployed----so you have them by the balls and can make 1 person do the work for 3. Its not Obama and Dems, its not the Repubs and TeaBaggers....its just the way of the world now---and its class warfare. The jobs arent coming back, the middle class isnt coming back, and the shining city is now dimly lit-----deal with it.

Vulcher, you keep focusing on jobs. Wrong. Backasswards Focus on creating business. I build, he ships, he sells, he buys. Product to the consumer. When demand for the business increases the company will hire people, i.e.:jobs. Why do you think Alex and Tim shoot their own video, answer their own emails, phones. They could hire someone just to create a job. Capitalists of the highest degree!. My heroes. I hope they make a fortune.

Vulchor

My heroes are teachers, fireman, police officers, research doctors, good parents, philantropists, people who look to better others, ect........but your feelings are that of many, your heros are people striving to make as many bucks as they can-----wonder why were f*cked?

Also, and not to derail this thead. We are dealing with a place where we have a Republican leader...maybe the most well know Governor in the US....denying climate change and instead praying to god (aka a rain dance if people in other countries so it)-----so hat happens?? The state starts on fire. Divine Intervention?????

Until some scientist shows me the correlation between increased CO2 and temperature, I'll believe man-mad global warming is a hoax. I think those who believe this are science deniers. Don't tell me "most scientists, or the scientific community, or environmentalists, etc say this or that. Bunk science. No scientist can provide you with proof, a formula, a theory, a conclusion. You know, the stuff that makes it science. Did you hear about the scientists that fudged their data to get more funding? The polar bear scientist who lied. These are their key people. I have an MS in Geology, not exactly weather, but I understand the scientific process. and none of these bozos followed it. I know this will tick some folk off. Some might respond. Don't ridicule or even sight some one. Tell me science. Oh, by the way, in case you haven't heard, it has been scientifically proven that sun spot activity affects the temperature of the earth. Proven. CO2? NOT1!
