The docks at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are getting busier, and recently posted openings for 3,000 new jobs. They're among the best blue collar jobs around (that are still around, anyway), that pay between $20 and $28/hour.
They expected to have a good number of applicants, but nothing like the wave of
half a million Americans from across the country who have applied for them.
Now I ask you -- how could this happen in Bush's America? I thought that the new jobs generated by his economy were the good ones, that we were turning the corner.
Ah well. I'll plan to tune in to FNC, watch the coverage of the convention, let that warm, comfortable feeling wash over me, and everything will be fine.
