American Dollar isn't worth beans

American companies have shot the American economy in the foot. With off shoring the majority of the work America doesn't have much to offer when other counties are doing all the work. So what does America have to offer to keep the American Dollar high?

I sure hope our next President (anyone but Obama) builds the American Dollar to what it should be. It's hard to believe such a powerful country is going broke, economy falling quickly, unemployment rising, prices of everything rising, crime rising.

What happened to the days America had factories and had an export to other countries. Now we just have imports. Everything is imported because its cheaper that way. Well picking the cheaper route is also killing our economy and slowly bleading America.

I don't think its right that we have to rebuild a country after a war. Spending a large amount of money America doesn't have to spend. Why are other countries doing so well? Why is the Euro worth so much more then an American dollar? I don't see any European Country putting money into a war or rebuilding a country that got smushed. They are a bit wiser with there money then America seems to be.

It's time for some American tough love. Stop supporting all these countries and support yourself. We have so many hands out helping others we don't have any left to hold ourselves up. It's time to pull our resources back home and focus on a struggling America. Put the anger towards other countries to the backburner. Stop being the judge and jury on what is right in the world and focus on us, the American citizens.

Karaoke Software Review

I first have to mention some requirements to be labeled "awesome software"
1. Multi-platform (meaning windows, mac, etc.) If your software only supports Windows go home or back in the 1980's or 90's (prior to OS X)

2. Feature rich (meaning the software attempts to capture a large base of users, just not a select few)

3. Good Support (when we have questions either provide a Knowledgebase with answers that are helpful or a forum that gets responses)

If you do a search for Karaoke Software you may run across:
Karma by Latshaw Systems - Windows Only (fair)
CompuHost by INVICION - Windows Only -- (fair)
PowerKaraoke by DOBLON - Windows Only -- (horrible)
KaraFun - Windows Only -- (horrible)
kJams - Mac OS X -- (above average)
