You cannot grow bacteria in petri dish full of molten lead.
Let me put it this way:
I would love a break down of all the jobs private and public sector created over the last 6 years.
I have the feeling we have a ton of people off the books and also a ton who were put on government employment welfare at high pay on the private sector’s tax dollar.
Obama has dragged us back down to the Carter Presidency.
I know a bunch of women who worked in real estate during the bubble and do not now. They didn’t need the jobs. They liked the money.
“Where Have All the Workers Gone?”
They are on disability.
do deeper structural problems in the economy have to be fixed before we can expect any real progress?
Obama would say YES and so doing destroy any further
progress. Get Government out of the way, and watch this
country soar.
Is there a change in the makeup between government workers and private? I’ll bet the reason this isn’t worse is because the government jobs have expanded. Government jobs which produce no goods or services to enhance value.
I believe the un-employment rate does not include all who are
unemployed but only those receiving Unemployment insurance.There are millions who no longer receive benefits.
This is not a puzzle. The Feds are cooking the book. Simple as that. Also explains why the math no longer works.
I reckon the true unemployment rate is somewhere around 15%, maybe higher.
As taxes go up, the underground economy expands. It’s called the Laffer Curve.
Greece has that going on right now.
70% of the activity is underground.......
Looks like the party is in the wagon. You all pulling the wagon are going to have to do a better job. Slackers.
(/sarcasm)
Well lets see.
If I’m a guy who has worked my ass off for 20 years, my job has been sent off to India or China, and I’m faced with the choice of:
A:) Go to work at a ‘McJob’ for $10 per hour and take orders from some ignorant bastard that’s just barely removed from Puberty, and has an IQ that’s around room temperature.
B:) Sit on my ass at home all day or ‘go fishing’ and collect a check that nets out to about the same dollar amount as option ‘A’.
Which option do you think they will choose?
The people that wrote this article obviously don’t get out of their offices much.
Anyone posted the number of ‘disabled’ in Detroit? That number will rock your socks...
Either way you go with A or B you still are a McMoron!
TANF SNAP SECTION 8 SSDI SSI EITC WICS
OBAMAPHONE GASELECTWATER ASSISTANCE ETC. That’s where they went.
Amazing how the Laffer Curve agrees with Josef who later became vice-prez of ancient Egypt.
