The question I have is: How does the President think he can get away with doing this? I mean, all of these people that work in these different companies, when those decisions are made and they get rid of jobs--we were doing the same thing, weren't we, with telling people they couldn't drill for oil in the gulf? Didn't that put lots of people out of work? I don't understand why people don't see that and realize that you can't have a war on private business in America and, at the same time, say you're worried about jobs, because it seems like, to me, people get jobs in businesses. And if you destroy businesses--of course, their concept of jobs is, We'll hire more people for the census workers, I suppose.
