This site is a joke! What exactly is a saved job???? Stop trying to find ways to justify this "CHANGE" that is going to ruin our economy. You want "CHANGE"??? Pass the Fair Tax. www.fairtax.org. Then sit back and watch us become an economic super power. Of course, the government will lose some control over us and people will actually have to take accountability and responsibility for themselves but isn't that what our Country is supposed to be about. God bless America and Merry Christmas!

Reply to Interested Dave : 45 jobs is NOT good anyway you cut it ! Because that depends on whether qualified people who are real americans and not freeloaders, get the jobs! ANY way you cut it we will NEVER know because the so-called transparenct that this site is supposed to give us doesnt exist!
