State Money Woes May Affect Where You Retire

Our Local, State and Federal Governments seem to be ignoring the problem that is causing this country not bouncing back from this recession, it's not the lack of consumer spending, because you have to have a job to spend, notice the high nationwide unemployment? It appears that we the people are being shut out of everything, from jobs to healthcare, law breakers are rewarded with money, jobs, healthcare and they don't have to pay taxes on the money they make over their paid salaries, these being illegal’s, we suffer and our rights ignored but they receive rights and privileges that they did not earn, while those of us that are hear by birth or have entered this country using the system are punished by paying increased taxes. Many of us have lost jobs by either being forced to quit by corporate tactics, or laid off only to be replaced by foreign workers hired at less the wages, not that they are better but Corporate America wants to increase share-holders profits, and show phony prophets increases. We can't compete in a Global economy if no money is being circulated in our economy, the outsourced labor after grouping themselves together 6 - 12 people to a house , they then send their money back to their home country, not here, this is why many states are not gaining only losing, we are slowly becoming a 3rd world country. I see nothing wrong with Global employment, but the emphasis should be Americans employee's 90% others 10%, alleges 0%. If you go to other countries they hire their own countrymen first. Many companies are firing (what they term layoffs) of quality employee's just to hire someone from another country for less wages. So stop punishing the Hardworking American Citizen for attempting to make an honest living, if a company refuse to hire within the country (meaning the 51 US States) Tax them not the individuals living in these 51 States.
