you are exactly right. How much more are these idots willing to suffer? Have you noticed the same ole states that have their head in their ass? Georgia is the worst one of them all. I remember what the job market was like in the 1980's and not a single wetback anywhere! They won't stop until they take over the USA. Georgia was once a great state and damn has it changed. There are some really stupid and greedy people in power especially in Georgia.

2) Get a clue [by Anonymous Citizen on July 26, 2008]
Why do you think that Kentucky misses out on attracting new business to the state. Right to work does not eliminate the union, it only states that if a person does not want to join the union they do not have to and they can not be terminated for it. The unions were strong in the 50's and 60's but I would rather see the higher paying jobs coming to this state instead of going to states like Texas which is a right to work state. Do we really want to end up like Ohio or Michigan??? How many jobs have to be lost before some of you wake up and smell the coffee?

3) Right to work? [by Anonymous Citizen on April 21, 2008]
The right to work in any state is a special interest goal to keep labor cheap and it's also designed to attract illegal aliens and steering this country toward a third-world country. Look at the current state we're in now! Ask yourself honestly, who profits off an economy like this?
This is not a comment but a real fact! Take a look around and see the destruction of our country.
