I'm not sure this is the answer you want ,but here goes! I choose to stay in Maine when I was 23; just got out of army was discharged in fort hood Texas. I done some checking around and a party chief in Texas was making about $4 an hour with good benefits. My better half was homesick an wanted to move back home.(I knew Maine's wages were a dead end) so I came back home an took a job as a party chief for $1.50 an hour! Guess what I went to work on a similar project that was offered in Texas (military housing project cons't) yup you could say it's worse today! you see the right feels that keeping wages down benefits business= who to hell has money to spend in your business? why do you suppose so many of our youth leave this state? wake up we got a choke hold on the top who need to go where dinosaurs belong=the boneyard!
