Things have gotten worse from three years ago and the POTUS prescribes more of the same poison.

Are y’all aware that “ebt accepted” is now posted on gas pumps?

Nice, eh?

Blacks and those who are mired in poverty need to learn from the asians who come here with absolutely nothing. They pool their money and open a business. (and they do not spend money on frivolous things like $300 sneakers or iPods)

It will get worse as more people start working part-time thanks to Obamacare.

Hire people in America.

Buy things made in America.

Stop buying imports. Buy American.

California is about to raise its minimum wage to $10/hr. That will only widen the unemployment gap.

[Afterguard]

Everything is going according to Comrade Obama and the Commissariate’s plan.

Uh, no shinola sherlock. Income is generally related to productivity and employers generally want to hire those that can be the most productive.

The lowest income folk do not posess the skills necessary to compete with others that have very marketable (productive) skills. Therefore, they are not as employable, resulting in more unemployment. My advice, quit bitching and go get a marketable skill. Anyone discussing an “employment gap” is likely claiming that some are “luckier than others.”

Clearly, some races can’t handle freedom.

As long as the government keeps making it more expensive to hire lower-income workers, employers will keeping finding ways to avoid hiring lower income workers.

You don't create more jobs by making existing ones (and the new ones) more expensive. Practically every major initiative by this administrative has done exactly that.

...widest levels since officials began tracking the data a decade ago,...

Bush's fault!

[freeangel]

I’m sure glad that the gap hs nothing to do with ILLEGALS, welfare whores who can’t keep their legs together or dropouts with no education. /s

[Cementjungle]

those earning less than $20,000—have topped 21

When the government offers more and more incentives to remain in this bracket, more people will make the choice to stay there.

[Hoodat]

Obviously Bush’s fault.
