That is a good question. The government will need to do some research on the implication of tariff and tax credits to businesses that has a manufacturing division in the country.

Increase exports helps, but if the product is produced abroad, is it really exporting? Does it help with unemployment? At the end, if no new job is created in the US, then we are going to be in this "long-term recession" for a long long time.

Let's be realistic. Our labour costs are high, but not at a level that is not competitive. I don't think it would cost that much to make a ball point pen in the US. As well, there is efficiency gain and technological advancement when we produce something in-house.

The root cause of this “long-term recession” we are experiencing right now stems from corporations moving jobs abroad. It isn’t too obvious given that we have all been made to believe, through out education, that international trade is good, and that both countries would be better off as...

Playboy is such a poorly manage brand. Playboy Mansion used to be an invite-only party where all the celebrities would go and hang out. Nowadays, it just turned into an expensive strip club. Seriously, the Playboy brand is so bad, that I don't want to associate myself with it. PA

I think the best approach is to talk to HR and let them handle this. This is what HR is for and this is what they do. As a reminder, office environment could get hostile. I would rather have HR deal with her for her BO, instead of having HR deal with me for something I said. PA

I think so too, normally I would pair my jeans with a pair of sneakers, but I got a pair of black straight-legs jeans that looks like dress pants. So, I am hoping that I can pull off wearing wing-tip shoes with jeans.

What's the mile per gallon on that? :)

lol Does anyone really wear that?

I always appreciate a pair of Clarks. They are comfortable shoes that are great for the weekend. However, I like shoes with slimmer toes, which give it a more trendy look.

I recently found this great looking pair of wing-tip shoes. I am very tempted to get them. I think it should go well with a pair of dress pants during workdays or a pair of jeans during casual Friday, but I am just wondering if it is appropriate for a job interview...

This is what happened when you have a bunch of 13-year-olds behind the wheels.:p
