I also don't want to pretend that CEO's for big companies have anything other than their own best interests at heart. When I hear them bitching and moaning about this and that, and this and that is why Joe Public is out of work, i take it with a grain of salt. Many companies are doing quite well at the moment, they are just refusing to expand or hire in response....content to let all that new capital flow right into their pockets...and then they want to tell me that, hey, just make things a little bit easier for them regulation wise *wink* *wink*, and they'll magically start hiring again. I dunno............sounds fishy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:340737 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
