[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1776221, member: 39122"] Apparently people here don't want manufacturing jobs, or any jobs for that matter. Just look around, all the companies are hiring and offering good money and very few takers. There is a Lennox factory in Stuttgart,AR, employs around 1400 when fully staffed, they already paid good and have a health clinic on site for free and just gave an additional $3/hour raise and are still begging people to come to work there. I've toured the plant several times, it's not terrible work by any means. My father-in-law retired from there in March, they called him a month later trying to get him to come back to work with that $3/hour raise. He would've if it was closer but he was driving 60 miles one way to work and was burned out on the drive. That's just one example of why stuff is being automated and jobs go overseas. If our government would stop handing out money we might could have more jobs stay here and have a better economy. They need to crack down on people who get disability but really don't need it and all of the other government handouts. I know there are truly people who need them but most are playing the system and us taxpayers. [/QUOTE]
