Why is America hurting for jobs? As usual... it's the government!

I'm no fan of the 60 Minutes' journalism... but this one is pretty simple. The US government is chasing money, jobs and companies away from America.

And it's only getting worse...

Detroit Lives! Out of the fire comes a Phoenix!

Another inspiring story to pay attention to... I think this offers more than just hope... it's the solution. People taking things into their own hands and making it better in every direction.
Detroit used to be the shinning city on the hill. The most brilliant and bright shinning star of the free market and capitalism (the free market definition) in the USA. When you looked at Detroit in those days Freedom really did mean Prosperity. However, it's downfall is also the warning of everything that has happen since... the loss of freedom through government intervention, regulation, taxes, market manipulation, greed and corruption which should be a warning to every city and person in America. This is where we are headed if we don't change.
What this story shows though... is there is always hope... and there is always opportunity. Although government can bring us down, it rarely lifts us up...Success has nothing to do with government... but what we ourselves choose to do. If we want to succeed... we can succeed. And for those who have the same mindset... Detroit just might be the place to go. We have to work together... and when we do, we succeed. But we have to have the freedom to dream... and that's what America is supposed to be all about. It's time we make it so.



Enjoy! And keep smiling!
