We all better.
Wait the article assures us they are only looking for the t-word
people. Not good citizens like us. I believe the government, they
wouldn't lie to us, would they?

College for me was night school for 5 years. I worked 10 hours a day,
then 3-4 hours school 5 days a week.

No debt when I graduated. No loans. Paid as I went.

Little sympathy here for the coddled who borrowed 100k so they could
play for 4 years.

Ahh, good times, good times.

I would like to see those college records more than ever, now.

I bet there is really something there to see.

We are better people for it now.

My son is being raised the same way. (minus the paper route, they
don't exist anymore)

He will earn his way, his car, his money etc. He will be better for it as well.

Big dittos there, except my parents taught me work ethic. My first
real job ( I had a paper route and such before) started me at .75 over
minimum wage because I was worth it, Raises followed quickly and as a
junior in HS I was making over 5 bux an hour, big money for a kid
then, min. wage was 2.75 hr. I had a car, I paid for , paid my gas and
insurance and had plenty of spending money.. Many kids in my
neighborhood had the same, but, I was the only one who earned mine.
They got thiers handed to them by mommy and daddy. We lived in a nice
middle class neighborhood and it was a status symbol for the parents
to put their kids in a nice car. My dad didn't go in for the status
thing, he would rather raise good kids, and did.

Maybe he (Donnelly) is more honest than most because he won't use the moniker Democrap, when he knows communist is more applicable?

I always worked as a teen, even a pre-teen. I had more offers and jobs than time.

But, I was a clean cut, well dressed, respectful kid.

I didn't have facial tatoos, wear my pants around my ankles, talk like a sailor at sea, disrespect my elders or even steal from my employers.

I brought more to the table than I took, was at work on time EVERYDAY and did the work I was assigned.

Those kids still work today, they are part of the 50% employed.

I feel little for the other 50%, they are unemployable and most likely, always will be.

I think he is a better quality man than he has ever gotten credit for being.

He wasn't my first choice, but he is my 1st choice now.
When I first read the story of the missing girl, a tear came to my
eye. I have never worked for anyone like that, not in my life.

That is an excellent post.

It fails to mention that Romney shut the whole company (Bain ) down when a coworkers daughter went missing in NYC.
All corporate assets went towards finding the girl, and they did. I bet it cost millions, but that didn't matter.

That tells of character.
