I could easily speculate at the reason for this increase. But that isn’t what I want to talk about. What I want to talk about is the creation of jobs. I find it quite interesting that the way they judge if the job market is doing well or not is by looking at the basic number of jobs created. President Obama is being praised for creating so many jobs, but as I look at it we need to do more than just that. We need to look at the quality of jobs being created.

Sure we might have created several hundred thousand jobs. But they are all blur collar hard labor low paying jobs. We need to be competing with the rest of the world at a much stronger level. But no! All our hard earned tax dollars need to build better roads rather than putting the money to better tasks. Why aren’t we competing at a level on par with the rest of the world? Let’s put aside political agendas and power struggles and solve these problems. Let’s create some jobs that can really elevate those around us. We don’t need to take advantage of each other in order to have the things we want and need. (unless we want to take advantage of other people.)

To be frank, I am sick and tired of hearing people complain about these prices… Especially when SUV (Gas hogs) sales are at an all time high. If you hate the gas prices, stop buying gas. Stop driving a block to go to church. Start riding the bus. Start buying fuel efficient cars. Hate high prices, then start doing something about it, and stop telling me that fuel is a requirement… Sure it is important, but you can get by with out using some much. Both of my cars care averaging around 30MPG. Sure I have to drive quite a distance, but I don’t mind paying.

Here is a video that sums things up nicely:
