I know that America has had better presidencies than the one we have now. Too many people are dying in the war on terror, and the economies of some states are dropping like anvils. It's all because American jobs are being sent overseas, and American businesses have shown an increase in foreign ownership. And, since some businesses are being driven out by more profitable ones, people are losing jobs. Unemployment rates are rising too fast, and too many jobs have been sent overseas. They're OUR jobs; why is it that the foreign countries have them? I don't mean to sound nationalistic, but I care about the country we live in. I urge the US Government to do what they can about our jobs, because our economy won't be able to survive if this keeps up. The new presidency may be different (who knows what McCain or Obama can and will do for us), but this has gone on for long enough. I think the rising unemployment rates are just inexcusable, and too much focus has been put on the war and foreign affairs.
