I have a friend who cannot understand why his basically UNEMPLOYABLE 36 year old son cannot find a job with more than about 24 hours.

His current ‘job’ is in a restaurant, and he has been fired from a continuing chain of menial positions.

Daddy keeps bailing him out.

When Daddy is gone, this ‘kid’ will have a big shock.

When ever a libtard was running his or her mouth at the cost of health care and what a good thing it would be to have universal health care for all I would tend to say “You think it costs a lot now. Just wait till its free”

I freely admit that I did not coin that phrase but thought it was appropriate. I used to either get rude responses like “You don't know what you are talking about” or blank stares.

Well they got it and now some of them get it.

Blaming the republicans is being spewed now, even on a military site because of the cancellation of Independence Day fireworks at a major base. Some other posts suggested no more vacations for the White House family.

Another thing about part-time work is if you have to get three jobs, it costs more in gas and clothing if there is a dress code.

If you double the number of workers but keep the total hours worked exactly the same, does that not equate to a larger workforce and less unemployment - at least statistically speaking?

You mean like this?
