Are you really that surprised this poster was owned?
Looks like I have been snookered again. I have had some foundation done on a house because some highly trained engineers wrote a white paper saying that the slab floor design was to replace the foundation crawl space design and it became a condition of building. There were eight men working on it but I had to communicate with only one of them because the others did not speak English. Had roof put on another house and the same thing happened there. I can say that they preformed a constant service without even looking up.
They are taking the jobs that we do not want with our unemployment passing 10% being true or false we should see why. Wealth is a product of the land and should not be compared with the printing press turning out unsecured dollars. We are being told by many experts to expect many banks to fail, forecloses on homes increase and foreign interest buying the bundled loans.
The information coming out of the downtown area can and possibility is comparable to the many opinions on the internet. If such was happening in Tulsa does one believe that it could be put in print? Yea! Right after we place a police department on the moon to control its colonizing there.
19 of those gathering as the G20 believe we have out-priced our selves in the world markets. The one that does not it the United States. If there is a question we will just print more billions of dollars for them. ;D
Shadows,
If it weren't for those people who "don't speak the language," you'd be whining that you "can't get good help anymore."
Poor, poor folks in Saudi Arabia can't get good help anymore, either.......

USRufnex: That is true. They are getting leery of taking the federal notes that we are issuing that our great grandchildren are to redeem. We got so many of them out already that people cannot find a way to spend all that stimulus money.
