And if the american worker made the same wages, who would purchase all these things made in our cheap labor manufacturing plants. Certainly not that low wage worker, they won't be able to afford it, or did you not think that far ahead. We must have a strong middle class in order to have a strong economy.

In the real worl, it's not only about cutting the fat but also about raising revenue by the way of charging higher prices, but people seem to forget about that part of the equation as they complain about the rising prices

so what you are saying is this Government money would have been better spent on Education, Healthcare and other social programs? Careful now, you are starting to sound like a socialist.

By the way, have you ever been on the light rail. I have been on it numerous times and ridership has been steadily increasing. My only complaint is that there is not enough parking available at the Tukwila station.

I find it interesting that people always bring up that they think the President has not lived up to his hype but fail to mention that the Republicans have thrown up roadblocks at every step of the way to try to ensure it. Imagine where we could have been If our beloved republican leadership would have spent the same amount of energy on running the country as they do on trying to oust our President.

Unfortanetly all our politicians are concerned about is being in charge. Republicans seem to be more worried about losing the majority in the house then actually working to fix the problems of the US. Politicians on both side need to realize that the word comprimise is not a bad word

we blame the government for the problems with Illegal immigrants. Well I think if we go after those that HIRE them we could get a handle on the issue. Take away the jobs you take away the reason to be here.
