he American worker is the backbone of our great country.
Every road and building, most machines and products
were conceived, designed and built by Americans.
The absolute best illustration of
hard working Americans is in
your typical grocery store. From
the seeds the farmers sow and reap,
to the drivers who transport the
produce to a soup or other product manufacturer to the stock
persons who work overnight to put the products on the shelves,
to the cashiers and baggers... just this industry dedicating to put-
ting food
on our tables, employs so many hard
working
Americans.
From this core industry come
designers and manufactures
of the machines used in the
farming or the processing of
our meat, dairy and other
foods. Let us not forget the
workers who ensure electricity
gets to those machines and plants
as well as your home and business.
What about the machanists and

mechanics who build and maintain the trucks, trains and ships
that transport our food, as well as those who build and maintain
our vehicles so we can go to the store to pick it up?
The hospital workers and doctors
who treat those injured in their
jobs; the insurance providers who
help keep farmers and others stay
in business after a disaster; the art-
ists and media who make the signs, labels, coupons, ads, etc.; the
cleaning staff and companies who keep our places of work and the
businesses we patronize clean; the restauranteers, chefs and wait
staff who take
our food to
another level...
I could go on
and on.
Regardless of what you do, hard work in the U.S. it is not gauged
by the size of your muscles or your paycheck. Hard work is deter-
mined by filling jobs that need doing, doing those jobs well, and
a dedication to improving who we are, what we do and the world
around us. Just knowing what you do makes a difference and
helps keep our nation strong is success for all.
To every hard working American, we salute you!

Hard work is not gauged by the size of
your muscles or paycheck, but determined
simply by doing a job and doing it well.
