I guess it's possible I'd say that too if I lost all the time.

Big Business was well taken care of with the bailout bill passed during the Bush Administration but supported by then President-elect Obama.

Almost all of the spending on infrastructure and other construction projects had stipulations that the work be done by union workers. |
