And to those here who claim I am living off govt teat

I don't think many people see it that way anymore. It's just all over, responsible people of all ages, all education levels, all economic groups, just can't find jobs.

Until the factories in crumbling cities start manufacturing things again, there's no real solution to the problem. It has to start with jobs, inner city manufacturing jobs, and build from the ground up. And I don't mean federally subsidized situations, which take as much out of the economy through taxation as they bring in....and then distribute it to the people not in the greatest need.

It means the fed is buying stocks to prop up the market.

Ah, yes, the Obamas, POTUS Barack and FLOTUS Michelle Obama head north today for a magnificent, taxpayer funded ten day New England vacation with the elite, liberal, left-wing Democrat low life. Meanwhile the poor jobless folk among us continue to suffer big time while the Obama’s wine and dine like French King Louie & Marie (Let them eat cake!!!) As for you unfortunate young folks and Black youths, how’s that Obama “Hope & Change” working out for you!!! Best wise up kiddies, and throw your incompetent idol Obama under the bus or he will take you down while while he chomps on $150.00 per pound steak!!! See kiddies, elections have consquences and.....you dummies hung a rope around your own necks by giving your vote to this America hater and most probably full blown Muslim anti-American!!! Remember November and vote to destroy the entire anti-American Democrat Party at the polls this year and...with it, help broom the Obama’s down the flushing topilet into the cesspool that they so richly deserve!!!

We are still very dependant on US economy. When the strong german growth in Q2 was announced, the stocks almost did not move. German DAX even closed in red that day. But today, in a few seconds, stocks move from green to red once the bad figure was known.

Well that hasn't happened since the 1970's. I live in Pittsburgh and believe me we know about rust belt industries. They are never coming back sans some catastrophe in China. The American economic engine would absolutely roar if we just cut taxes and regulations to the bone. Forgiegn investment would flood into the country. Obama and his socialists are one part Satanists and the other part overeducated, arrogant, white whine sipping ingnoramuses. They really do take joy in the pain of others, seeing people beg and grovel. Anybody doubt me our goverment is under Luciferian influence? Somebody needs to ask Obama like in John 4:1

Was Jesus Christ the Son of God who came in human flesh?

Bet you he won't answer, which means.....

“small businesses and shops here are dropping like flies”

In my area plywood sales are up as they have to board up the strip malls that are vacant.

I know it, it’s insanely hopeless out there now. They’re going to have to keep extending UI benefits until this stops or reverses and cut elsewhere.

Yeah, sounds great doesn’t it? I showed this to my Wife last night and she says “So what? He’s working while he’s on Vacation”. (!?!?!) I just looked at her and rolled my eyes....She’s Blue and I’m Red and I’m the one on Unemployment. She’s been disabled since 1995 and has a hard time seeing things my way, since she’s getting SSDI, Private disability and Medicare. I just keep hoping the “O” nightmare will end quicker than 800+ days...
