Well it is about 2012 and it has been a year of change and intereting experince.
Besides experiencing a change in state government that inspired me to create this blog a away to vent my frustration.
I along with this experience I discovered I was not the only person frustrated with the arogance of Mr Kasich when Issue 2 aka SB 5 went down in defeat back in November.
I also discovered that even though one can have an education corporate America don't even care or acknowledge that education.
I first discovered this when I applied for work for a publishing company and got rejected.
I also discovered this when I applied to a rental car company and with a Associate Degree and three years prior experience in automotive I got relegated to a job as a driver for minimum wage with no benefits, while the company records a record profit in the billions.
That event alone made me decided to observe the occupy movement in October.
That insident caused me to vote No on Issue 2 along with around sixty percent of my fellow Ohioans.
In closing I intend to attempt to keep my blog updated at least once a week and stay home to avoid the local Police from charging my $40 dollars to go to jail.
To all my readers I you drink either do it at home or catch a cab or pay forty dollars.
In the words of Edward R Murrow "Good Night and Good Luck."
Here is proof about the new $40.00 jail fee:

Why I Voted NO on Issue 2
On Last Tuesday I joined the 62% of the Ohio populist and voted No On Issue 2 aka Senate bill 5 which was a divisive plan by the Ohio GOP to curve government spending by cut or reducing benefits to State and municipal workers and reduction there collective barging rights up to the right to arbitrate and strike.
Currently I working the private sector a a delivery driver for a rental car agency part-time with little or no benefits. Currently No body in my family are members of any union or are public employes. However I fail to understand how the defunct SB5 would have benefited my continuity. In some ways I concluded the SB 5 would have hurt communities, because I would reduce the buying power of the middle class, and cause the private sector not to hire new employes.
Here is how I believe we are in recession and why in basically one paragraph. The first major cause is the fact that the average job currently dose not pay as much as jobs paid in the past. Roughly thirty years ago most full time workers earned enough money to afford rent ,car payments and groceries. Currently most workers at even the most prosperous employers such as Wal-Mart, Target, and even union ran stores like Mejer and Krogers, Pay their workers nine dollars an hour to start working for them. With this low pay Most workers are barley able to afford the commute to work, yet alone Buy the bare necessities for living such as groceries, shelter and healthcare.
Due to the miserzation of America many Americans cannot even imagine owing things that were once about forty years ago were reasonable attainable luxuries such as a new or even late model used car, a basic apartment, a quality education, and even an occasional vacation to a local amusement park. the providers of these services them either lay off or reduce the hours of employies in these industries and since they have to watch their spending they then dont bur the neccaty of food or clothes as once bought in the past.
To finish my point , the reason I voted no on issue two was not to protect the unions, or show respect to the real public servants such as police ,firefighters, nurses, and teachers who in my opinion in some ways should make more money than professional athletes who make more money in one year than most small city police and fire department have in their pensions, or corporate CEO's who cause there business to lose money and cause many employees to lose their jobs.
Next time self appointed servants like John Kasich or John Bohnard feel that in order to serve the people it is best to nickel and dime the real public servants they may want to watch my first video commentary I produced back last January and then come to me about police officers who work the third shift and get shot at don't deserve a dignified retirement, Fire fighters who run in to burning buildings don't deserve the best equipment to make their job safe, nurses should be able to obtain quality health care insurance. and finally teachers who earn less money than many factory and face dangerous students earn too much money. I challange Kasich, Bohnard and any other fisical consertive to quit there jobs a polliticans and try some of these jobs.
