What door fliers say about our nation
The country is at near 10 percent unemployment. Categorizing the fliers on the door, 50 percent are companies or workers looking for work. A new roof, siding or patio, lawn service, snow removal. Often the person delivering the leaflets is the owner of his own small company, paying people to work and paying taxes.
The other 50 percent are people trying to get out of work, passing out handbills informing you of what great politicians they are and why you should vote for them. Some send photos of smiling faces, wives and children.
I would prefer a simple job application, similar to one at the local food marts. Name, age, city, military service and last employed.
