Betcha the democrats never anticipated that their class envy efforts actually hurt Joe Factory worker. More jobs lost due to Obama's and Democratic party incompetence. Maybe they should research "trickle down economics" to understand what happened here.

They don't give a damn. They're anti-capitalists. Full speed ahead, and the heck with the consequences.

Speaking of consequences, they'll never take responsibility for those -- it will be Bush's fault, or Wall Street's fault, or (fill in the blank)'s fault. Never theirs.

They don’t care. These 2300 people work in the “wrong” industry. I’m sure The One will find them jobs composting or working on wind farms or doing something else “green”. It’s not like they’ll have to worry about the fact the jobs won’t pay as well because they’ll have universal MessiahCare, right?

It’d be nice is the excerpt contained at least a little information to clarify the headline. Why not include the first paragraph?
