It’s not just jobs that are needed, its wealth.
Jobs “created” from government bureaucracies simply trades existing (and forecasted) tax revenues for “make-work” services. No new revenue (wealth) is generated. Its circle economics that eventually will run dry.
The financials are withering. The financials geerally lead in recoveries and declines. The only thing growing is Government control. Right now they are giving, giving , giving but, soon yes very soon they will be taking back.
IMHO
you are right. the Dems are impeding their own recovery by adding on taxes, health care cost worries and cap and trade. no one in his right mind will make full-time new hires right now. part-timers will get the nod. we may be stabilizing - we are not expanding. jobs come in expansion.
