Jobs Bill Force States to Surrender Sovereignty
Jobs Bill is not about creating jobs, but surrendering States Sovereignty. Under Sec.376, States receiving any Federal funding whether Medicaid, Medicare, Tuition, FEMA, etc. will now surrender its Sovereignty under this new Jobs Bill. Surrendering Sovereign Immunity allows states to be sued by anyone recognized by the Federal Government. Interesting that Hilda Solis has been advocating the rights of illegals and now this Jobs plan forces states to yield its sovereignty to be sued. It is also likely Labor Unions could invoke this requirement to supersede Right to Work and force unionization of state agencies and businesses. Is this a Jobs Bill or a Bill to expand Federal power via DOJ, DOL, and others members of the Federal Family?

Well here is where I can see the Tea party doing some good. I didn't see it before, attacking SS and medical insurance for seniors. There are serious problems in our country ,being a fanatic about things is how we got this way by my thinking. Now about principals, yes. But lets see the other sides point of view as well. Taxing the rich doesn't seem to be all that bad, especially as if you make 10 mil a year. Paying an extra 10,000 in income tax is all that much of a burden. Cutting SS for seniors who trusted the word of the gov in this plan, which was mandatary not volountary, is lying and cheating. Ponzi scheme, come on now. If the money put in was left only for SS, it would be pleanty enough, so who is sucking on the Gov teats? Who is that wise a-ss from Wyoming? The one with the life time full pension. Oh yes, bet if you cut his pension, his story would change! Live and let live a bit here Tea partyers. I'm ready to join if I see moderation and common sense from you.Please...
