My daughters would love full time jobs, but employers don’t want to pay for Obamacare for them. Therefore, there are three people working in part time for her position, that was in the past full time.

What say you, Mr. Bush? How does Common Core solve that math problem?

If Jeb worked longer hours, he might work off some of the fat on his jaws.

“The problem is not that Americans aren’t working hard enough. It is that the Washington cartel of career politicians, special interests and lobbyists have rigged the game against them.”

...

I agree, but I think what Jeb said was misinterpreted.

A hundred million people need to get back in the work force, though this may necessitate sending home 10 million illegals and their children to help free up some jobs.

I don’t think JEB is very S-M-A-R-T.

He is always misspeaking.

Its been moving towards part-timers and “independent contractors” since ERISSA got passed. Zerocare just accelerated the process for former full-timers in service type of businesses, like retail and office clerical workers.

Romney led after that comment, and this was not Cruz talking about it, it was an underling. Being a pro-abortion, pro-gay moderate who couldn’t criticize Obamacare is what got Romney beat; all that plus trying to run out the clock after the first debate. The GOP candidate will always be portrayed as out of touch. If he is the nominee, Cruz will be so portrayed. If the comment hurts Bush, then fine; if Cruz’s people are focused on Romney comparisons, then I’m worried.

Did Jeb think that we could work the same hours and keep more if the government stopped taxing us to death?

The whole catch 22 of obamacare has reduced hours so employers don’t have to pick up the insurance tab.

Jebbie, sit down and shut up!

Yes there are lots of jobs around here.
Part time and 8 to 10 bucks an hour.
The “new normal” of Baraq.

This comment from out of touch Jeb Bush dovetials with his deer in headlights comment about Iraq.

Can’t imagine the scene if top generals in military come to a President Jeb Bush saying that the Russians and Chinese just launched their nukes and ask him what shall we do .
