The Obama administration should write and sign an executive order if the corporations
don't bring our jobs and factories back to our people, especially all of those geographically affected. Of course, I mean the oil crime.

I plan to watch every move of the corporations to kill more jobs and companies.

Bring our jobs home for the victims of this oil crime.

And I may include myself.

1. And what would that executive order be?
He can not use an executive order to compel corporations to return jobs. If he could, he could use them to compel anyone to do anything, and that would be an absolute tyrany.

So I am curious what you want him to do with an executive order.

2. Soldiarity with your sentiment.
We are told constantly that we are under attack from terrorists.

but most Americans have lost far more from the slick dealings on Wall Street, the price hikes by the Oil companies, the banksters and the Big Pharma crowd than any bunch of Taliban could hurt us.

It is time for the president to wake up from the Pentagon induced fervor of dwelling on how bad Al Queda is, how bad the Taliban is, and put together an effective hard hitting Executive Order that punishes the real destroyers of our society.

However the chances of Obama or any other President ever doing something like are slim to none.

Our Political Class is so in bed with the Upper One Per Cent that all of them are familiar with the same bed bugs.

3. Are there any countries where they require companies to create jobs?
Maybe a policy worth looking into.

5. Germany, and some of the other European countries, have had

a policy of updating technology so it enhances work for some time. There was an article posted here a few weeks back, I will try to find it tomorrow.

4. Sounds a little "unitary executive" to me
I can't figure out if the left is for it, or against it.

7. Nothing is going to happen here until the people decide to make it

happen. The pres isn't on our side, or we would be doing something more about 27 million people who need jobs. Even if he/she was, it still won't happen till people get involved and start changing the country so it works for everyone.

But here is the article I mentioned. I think it was posted by lxlxlxl the first time I saw it.
