A Labor Day Message for Congress - Abolish Labor Day!

Happy Labor Day.

It's really too bad that Labor Day is now only a joke; a joke that the wealthy play on the middle class and the poor in America. Millions in this country are without decent paying jobs and 47 million are without health insurance. Every day more and more American jobs are sent overseas or given to illegal immigrants so that the rich can get even richer. Now, Mexican trucks will endanger our national security while transporting goods around this country, again taking away even more American jobs. What does Congress do about the injustices heaped upon hard working Americans? Congress does NOTHING!

Instead, Congress will once again try to pass laws increasing the fraudulent H1-B programs, giving away even more jobs to the foreign countries that Congress works for. No doubt Congress will again pursue amnesty for illegal aliens and pass laws that will throw our borders open to even more invading illegals from Mexico and other countries. Meanwhile, Congress will pass more tax cuts for the rich while cutting wages and benefits for those few Americans who still have decent jobs. Congress will continue to weaken union representation and gut the last few workers right provisions.

I ask Congress this: why not just admit that the American government is completely against American Labor and that Congress hates the American worker. Why not abolish the Labor Day holiday? After all, even our President can't stand to be in the country on Labor Day. Congress should show a rare bit of honesty and get rid of this meaningless holiday. Think of all the cost savings that corporate America would reap with one less holiday. What a boon this would be to the bottom line. And after all, that's all that really matters, isn't it?
