RIJIMMY I can answer that very good question on a state level:

IF you live in RI you could've voted for Stinc Chaffee.

First Stinc will allow contractors doing business with the state to hire illegal immigrants to work for them through an executive order nullifying E-Verify.

Second Stinc will add a 1% tax to food and clothing.

That WILL do something to the economy.SOMETHING NEGATIVE!!!

To anyone who voted for Stinc...I hope you die a slow death, because Stinc is going to be the knife in our backs that slowly kills RI.
Hope your proud of your vote for Stinc.

I didn't agree with Bush or Carcieri in the last two elections, but those that voted for him don't get a death wish. Classy.

Well of course. I couldn't shove it for Caprio, and we don't need another term of Carcieri-light.

and your sort of making my point, I think govt can only make it worse. We need business to turn it around. I got my daughter an "AMerican Girl" doll for Christmas. It was made in China. I almost crapped.
Obamas fault? Consumers fault? Company's fault?
I dont know. Do we have to penalize people for manufacturing overseas? How can we be cheaper here?
Anything that "improves" the economy will be another bubble - tech, stocks, housing, - no real value, just investment money flowing in. We need something big to turn it around
