Conservatives Against Liberals/liberals Against Conservatives: Don’t You Ppl See Your Trained To Hate Each Oth?


Conservatives against liberals/Liberals against conservatives: Don’t you ppl see your trained to hate each other?
If you go to any Occupy movement and ask the protesters what they think of the tea party just about all of them will have something negative to say without providing any facts or proof. Just complete talking points from political pundits on MSNBC and liberal Hollywood stars, and I don’t care what anyone says these occupy movements are predominately LIBERAL.
You ask someone who is affiliated with the tea party or someone who supports the message of the tea party and just about all of them also have something negative to say about Occupy movement protesters.
When fact of the matter is BOTH government and Financial institutions are to blame for the destruction of the economy and middle class. Obama’s top advisor’s are from wall street and so was George Bush Jr. so why the fight?
OWS needs the tea party as much as the tea party needs them for if both movements do not come together you will only have Americans against Americans. Which leads me back to my original question
Conservatives against liberals/Liberals against conservatives: Don’t you ppl see your trained to hate each other?
So why

Husband Terminated From Job… What Do We Do?


Long story shortened (I hope I can do it…)…
My husband worked for the same company for 25 years 6 months. At 23 years 5 months, he was told that the business was being sold to another company. They forced the employees to sign paperwork for the new company within 24 hours of notice or threatened that they would no longer be employed immediately if they did not. Everyone signed for fear of unemployment. The fact of the matter is, the business was not being sold to Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. The employees were. After a year and a half, Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., began to terminate original employees that were veterans of the original business. My husband became one of them, two weeks before I gave birth to our first child. They told my husband that they would have gotten rid of him much sooner, but wanted us to be able to have health insurance for the birth. Too bad they waited until March 22, 2011 and not any later. I gave birth April 4, 2011. Anyway, it was wrong for them to include the pregnancy at all in their termination conversation.
My biggest concern is that they told my husband that they could not afford to employ him any longer and that they were letting him go due to lack of work. Even though 6 weeks earlier he was working overtime.
My husband is 53, was 52 at time of termination. The Bank, which still owns the business, did not offer severance because ACS became my husbands employer. The bank has the pension plan, which had my husband been on the bank payroll at the 25 year mark, he would have been able to receive a much higher pension.
Anyway, what the heck can we do to resolve this? Most everyone that has been terminated has been over 40, but they are doing it in increments. They are letting people go a couple at time and waiting months in-between.
