We have to make them listen. Please all, keep writing. Tell them your story. If they truly want to make the economy and job creation part of their agenda, let them know one thing they can do, and it will not cost a dime, make it against the law to discriminate against the unemployed. It's a very small step, but in my opinion, it would at least give them SOME credibility. America Speaking out 34243

Good luck with that- this is a site run by the Repub party- nothing but lip service. Of course if you have an abundance of time to waste, visit it and speak your mind. They will not listen to anyone there anymore than they already HAVE (have not). JMO

Maybe so CLO, but we have to keep trying. They have to keep seeing our names and hearing our stories.

If we only let conservatives write into this site and say "CUT SPENDING" then the republicans will think this is what the American people want. They won't listen to anything else anyway but if we don't let them know they will have no reason to think otherwise.

Great idea MaryKay. I posted your suggestion under Job Creation. Let's see how many "thumbs up" it gets:

"Make it against the law to discriminate against unemployed Americans who have been laid off through no fault of their own."
