Is this a great country or what?...Home Depot even had "Homeland Security" displays when you came in the store, and now they're hiring Tom "Orange Alert" Ridge for roughly 100G a year for a cozy, little work board of directors gig. Weel, at least now he'll be able to send his kids to college.

1. Well this proves they can afford to give me my money back

for the crappy floor they installed that has been no good from day one.

2. College for what? The only industries growing in the US are

fast food

retail

medical (though this seems to be more of a prop or even a red herring)

3. Medical is growing for real.

Those boomers are getting older, you know.

Related fields like pharmacy are growing, as well. There is a huge shortage of pharmacists in many areas of the country.
