My husband was downsized out of his job and we had no income for 14 months. I'm not about to blame Bush at the ballot as Willie Green would like us to. Bush inherited this problem.

The fact that he did not cause the problem is true. But I do think that he could do more to solve it. And the point I am making is that there are a lot of scared hurting people out there. And these people vote.

What Bush could do is, targeted tax cuts for businesses that start jobs in the US, reduce regulation and useless paper work that strangles new business, and demand that if you want to have free access to US markets the US has free access to yours.

Bush is not to blame regarding the cause, but he is in the drivers seat regarding the fixes.

I lost my job 6 months ago. But politics is not going to help me get another, and political changes anyway are too marginal and too long in coming to make any difference in my life anyway. Political changes are NEVER dramatic, and occur over long periods of time. The effects of political changes are usually subtle, compared to the business cycle. If I wait for politics to provide an answer, my wife and I will starve to death in the meantime!

Like I suspect your husband feels, it's simply up to me to do what I can to get another somewhere. I can't think that someone else, or some political process, will come around to save me. I've just got to find some way on my own.

He wasted a few years.
