But, Why? Obama says the economy is shaking and in great condition. And things have probably never been better. And apple pie is going to start falling from the sky. And the seas are going to recede. Yada Yada Yada
The Oil Industry is being devastated with prices that are far too low to make a decent profit and many hard working folks Houston who have just been able to recover from the oil crash in 1986 will again be out of work.
The irony is that the majority of the people in Houston voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012 when oil prices were at $140.00 and $97.00 and now with Obama, the price of oil is below $50.00.
People across America should take a moment to look at the Oil Industry and the Houston economy and feel compassion for those losing their jobs or simply losing job security. These next few months or maybe even years will be challenging for Houston and all of Texas, challenging until oil goes above $100.00 and The Lone Star State will rise again.
Why?????????
Josh Earnest is on FoxNews right now proclaiming the greatest economic recovery, the largest employment growth in over a decade.
Lollipops and star dust for everyone.
This economy barely survived Obama the past six years because the oil and gas industry kept it going. That prop is gone. What is going to take its place, part-time jobs at fast food joints? Obozo better try hiking the minimum wage to $50/hr. to make up for the great wages people earned in the energy industry and that are now disappearing by the thousands. It doesn’t matter how cheap gas is if you don’t have the money to pay for it.
