Americans work ethic is slowly declining.I recently read in the newspaper that Harley Davidson workers are complaining because they get points now for calling in sick.As you know,the factory was looking at moving it's location out of state.The worker's absenteeism was one of the reasons they wanted to leave and workers calling in sick last year cost the company thirteen million dollars in lost production.Under the new policy,the workers would be able to call in sick four times a year and they are complaining.All of the jobs that i had,i could not call in or i would be disciplined and these workers want to be able to call in sick numerous times a month.It is my opinion that four sick days a year is enough.On the other hand,the management should be lenient on the workers who get a bad sickness such as the swine flu and need a couple of days off to get better.These cases should be the only exeption and they would have to be accompanied with a doctors excuse.Taking days off unexcused days off when they are not sick is not acceptable.This is just one of many reasons the work ethic is declining.

Immigrants

Most illegal immigrants should be sent back to their own country.The people who come to America with no desire to become citizens and the ones commiting crimes should be tried and sent back to their own countries.Some of these illegals are here commiting crimes against citizens and when they are caught,they sit in prison until they get a trial which has to be paid for by tax money.There are other immigrants who are not commiting crimes but living in public housing and collecting food stamps which also take away from the taxpayer.Healthcare is also provided to some and that bill is footed by taxpayers too.These people collect these benefits but somehow manage to work under the table and do not have to pay taxes.I have worked for years,paid my taxes the whole time and when i hear about this going on,it makes me angry.I know somebody who reads this will say that my thoughts are not right or not humanitarian but it is just how i feel.I know that some illegals did come here to be sucessful and to start a new life.We should help those who are desiring to become citizens by helping them get help to speak our language fluently so they can communicate with us.I think that we should also help them to get a social security number so that they can help to pay taxes when they are employed.What i am saying is that there are good immigrants and bad immigrants and the U.S. should differenciate between them.
