Manufacturing the endless Cycle

As Honda broke ground on a new factory in southern Indiana. I sat in my Indianapolis apartment and thought the cycle is starting all over again. Indiana has focused it's economy on two main things manufacturing jobs and agriculture. Although these are both good sources of revenue for our economy I can't help but think of all the closed or closing manufacturing plants around the state.  Although the union had a large helping hand in this they are not the main reason for the cyclical nature of manufacturing. My perspective on the union will be entirely different blog.  Manufacturing will go were the labor and taxes are the cheapest.  We need to get more high tech jobs in the state along with more white collar work.  We have some of the best medical and technology schools in the country unfortunately most of the students leave the state when they graduate. We need to have our government work to get more of these jobs in our state.

War on terror

    I told them so. I said before this "war on terror started that as soon as American men and women started coming home in body bags that people would want to pull out.  I voted for President bush and support the troops.  My best friend as served several tours of duty in Iraq. His duty to the army is explosive ordinance  disposal.  I believe we should be there still and stay until the job is done. That job is not to create another version of America, which is what the media and president want you to believe,  That job should be to setup a government that works and that is friendly to the U.S. The reason Saddam Hussein worked as a leader is because is because that is the only way that that part of the world has been lead since the beginning. So that is the way it should be lead.
    However this is just one 21 year old college students perspective. What do I know. Please post your thought and ideas. Bashing each other will only get you less respected and ignored, but i do encourage a good debate. Please forgive any misspellings I am a terrible speller.
