There Are No Jobs!

I keep hearing the same mantra chanted over and over. "There is high unemployment because there are no jobs." This is what the US Government wants you to believe because their trained seals bleat it repeatedly.

They are only half right. Many have lost, been laid off or fired from their places of employment because of  Obama Administration policies and regulations.

Take Obamacare for example. It's mandates have forced employers to either reduce employee hours or jettison employees to save money and avoid fines and jail time. Worse still, businesses have been forced to close entirely. We have yet to experience the full force of this debacle called Obamacare.

Yes, I insist on calling it Obamacare because there is nothing affordable about it. Also, it's Obama's pile of poop and he should totally own it, period.

I digress....

I listen to many conservative talk shows and this week a lady (I'll name her Debbie) called and told the substitute host (sorry I didn't catch the name) that the story "that there are no jobs" was bunk.

When asked to explain Debbie told the host that she and her family owned a large farm in California.  She explained further that she was forced to depend on illegal migrant workers to pick fruit and vegetables,  because Americans refuse to do that type of work for such little wages. Debbie also stated she would gladly hire Americans but, I repeat,  "They won't do that kind of work."

When I look back in history and see what the Forefathers and Founders of this great nation went through. I mean sailing over on three creaky wooden vessels. Farming and tilling the land to grow crops. How the West was won. The Gold Rush, Daniel Boon, Louis and Ckark, Seward's Folly, etc. These were not wimpy people. They were not afraid to do back breaking work and get dirty. They were not afraid of the elements, the possibility they might get ill, killed or injured.

I'm mystified as to how our society turned from hard working people to utterly lazy sloths who expect a check from the government. Despite the fact that there are jobs available they refuse to do them.

I'm very sure Debbie's family is not the only farm family who would rather hire Americans to pick their fruit and vegetables.  It would not only help clear off the long term unemployment rolls, but will drastically cut down on the illegal immigrants which flock to this country to do jobs Americans won't do.

After all if the illegal immigrants are more than willing to leave their homes, sneak into the country to do back breaking work, to earn money to feed their families back home.... what happened to American incentive?  We don't have to climb fences and sneak accross the border, so what's our excuse?
