Maria Shriver and her progressive friends say that more forced employer mandates like higher minimum pay , paid leave and health care, that force the employers to shell out more $$$ for employees will get them to hire more...no??

Not enough customers?? Then raise the price to get more.

watch NYC become the next Hong Kong.

When you take away the QE fiat money pumped into the economy year after year GDP would be (and is) actually negative.

1. Obama has greatly increased the price of an employee, thus giving an incentive to buy capital equipment rather than hire employees.

2. The GDP figure is real GDP growth = nominal GDP growth - inflation. The government if lying about the inflation rate, therefore the real GDP growth is a lot less than the reported figure.

Jobs are growing IN INDIA and elsewhere.

The work is being smuggled in online without paying any import duty.

Professionals have lost their jobs and some of them aren’t coming back.

Not really hard to understand... Businesses shed jobs in 08/09 and invested in modernizing/automating plants/jobs. As business has picked up over the last two years they aren't adding back the jobs as rapidly as they shed them. Therefore productivity in rapidly increasing (GDP/Non-Farm Payrolls):
