Good job. Feel better. Now why don’t you come up with something to help us 99ers with a Tier V and job creation, copy and paste it in an e-mail to every democrat and republican in Congress. You are so good at it, it shouldn’t take you very long at all. Put your talent to good use.

we got to stop these companies from outsourcing and giving our jobs to foreign entities. we also need to get ahold of our borders. we also need to decrease the role of government in our affairs and respect the Constitution. we also need term limits on all offices especially congress and to vote everyone out so they can find real jobs and become truly connected with the people. there are so many other things we need to do also.

I have e-mail several senators and i received one response today. Not looking good for us 99ers. See respone below:

Thank you for contacting me regarding unemployment and COBRA benefit extensions. I appreciate hearing from you and am glad to have the opportunity to respond.

I will continue to support a temporary extension of unemployment insurance and COBRA benefits, provided that the cost is offset. I empathize with the Georgians and all Americans who are out of work in these tough economic times, but I also feel it is a dangerous precedent for our nation’s economic stability to continue to extend these benefits with borrowed money.

What about us trying to survive, Borrowing from family and friends and generosity of family, friends and neighbors? Are any of you getting the same response from any of the senators?

People from all over the world who understand the economy are begging for Congress to pass the Tier 5 unemployment extension. This comes after Thursday’s US Jobs Report — featuring an all-time high for first-time unemployment claims — devastated the world’s markets.

In the UK, oil prices fell to a six-week low. The Euro fell to a five-week low. Japan’s Nikkei 225 stock average closed a massive 2% lower than it opened. Markets in Singapore, India, New Zealand, China, South Korea, Australia and many, many more lost between 0.2% and 2% of their value — all in response to one number: 500,000 first-time unemployment claims filed last week in the USA. That’s half a million more people that will become ’99ers if the Great Recession is only halfway over.

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2010/08/21/obamas_take_a_beach_lunch_on_second_vacation_day/ i don’t think we will ever get a extension until we get someone connected with the people in the white house – a true american. this idiot we have in there now and his useless congress have left us to die while they all keep taking our money, spending, and going on vacation after vacation. how many of us want a million dollar vacation every month?

Stopped by to get some facts, holly crap! What’s going on, where am I, what am I doing here. Those who shared cognitively competent information have left. I guess good things don’t last forever. I hope all found work and a decent living again.

You can go to www.unemployed-friends.com,or if you’re from Florida, www.unemployedflorida.com or now there’s a new one I believe www.unemployedstatesofamerica.webs.com. I haven really checked the last one out yet, though.
