We are old enough to vote

Why have none of the candidates — Bobby Bright, Barack Obama or John McCain — told us, the voters, how they are going to replace lost industry, lost income and lost taxes? People do not have any money due to the loss of jobs and a very bleak future.
Ross Perot said in a radio show that if the NAFTA Treaty, which was before Congress, became law, it would bankrupt this nation. It was and it did.
Where are the replacements for Pepperill in Henry County and the missed industry in these other counties, states and the nation? People are frustrated and mad because they don’t know what is wrong.
Without jobs, you have nothing.
Candidates, tell us the truth if you know it. If you don’t know it, then do not treat us like little children, waiting on a surprise.
We are old enough to vote.
