"We're going to need a bigger boat"
Two Headlines that caught my attention today as I wonder through AOL. I'll see if I can get the links on here. 6 Americans Killed on Medical Mercy Mission in Afghanistan. Strange, we offer Humanitarian Aide to everyone but ourselves and it seems to be encouraged by our Government. Am I the only one who notices this? Could it be the Corporations that fund these "Missions of Mercy" get tax breaks, and , the government can use the "See, they killed our civilians" defense to justify being there. If you want to do a "Mercy Mission" do some volunteer work here at home. Instead of "shelling" out millions of $$ to a foreign country. Put it back into your community.http://www.aolnews.com/world/article/6-americans-among-foreign-doctors-killed-in-afghanistan/19584827. The other "Another Bruising Month for U.S. Labor Market". No kidding didn't I go over this already? http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/careers/july-jobs-report-unemployment-remains-high/19583596/

The high unemployment rate in this country continues to be staggering. Although, it officially stands at 9.5%, the reality is that it stands higher then the government would care to admit.

Here's the joke of the day.
