Nobody lost 2 million workers. The Obama regime simply airbrushed them away.
Report after report has told us how housing is picking up, the economy is growing and things are finally getting on track, and yet Obama is forced to extend unemployment benefits. Why? The number of people on welfare programs and disability are at an all-time national high. Why?
All around us, anecdotally, we continue to see the result of a bad economy, but the unemployment is magically down to 6.7%!
No, these people were not lost, Obama simply had no more use for them politically and it was expedient to airbrush them out of the official statistics.

I don’t think any of us doubt the fact that O came to destroy America through finances, jobs, and to create a ‘single payer system’ through Obama care.
I doubt the left ever intended the website to work right, it’s a great reason to move to single payer system in their minds, as Harry Reid said they would.
The jobs reports are so bogus in how they are created by gov’t ignoring those no longer collecting unemployment and those taking part time jobs that had full time jobs, etc.
Sad our country is being destroyed daily by the enemy within, while they lie about it.
Thank you Mr. Robinson for FR.

With any skill, this year will mark the end of Obama’s senate control.

Raise the import tariffs and offset it with income tax reductions. The stores are full of Chinese made stuff while Americans sit unemployed. This would:
- Increase the workforce by 30% (23% unemployed/77% employed = 30% increase. 23% is from shadowstats.com)
- a 10% tariff equals a $1500 per worker drop in income taxes. Americans would keep more of their money.
- with 30% increase in workforce government revenues from income tax would soar.
- government outlays for the unemployed would fall. Foodstamps, unemployment benefits, medicaid, and other programs would drop dramatically if there were jobs available. And this drop occurs without Ryan and the stupid party getting blamed for being cold hearted.
- American industry would be restored making us less dependent on foriegn countries and more capable of defending our nation.
- With 30% more people earning money in America, all American businesses would have more customers and prosperity would increase.

Some already have. It is not intended to be, but when Jamal murders Shaquinta her EBT card becomes lifelong.
To: DannyTN
Not a good idea. Read up on the Smoot-Hawley Tariff and how that made the depths of the Great Depression worse.
I'd rather have streamlined business regulations and a much simpler, more business-friendly tax code to really stimulate real business growth in the USA. In effect, make American businesses way more competitive in the export market.

To Democrats. To 2014. For elections.
Uncontested voter fraud and 500million dollars means the Republicans will be wiped out in 2014.

Smoot Hawley wasn’t passed until 2 years into the Great Depression.
And at that time imports were only equal to 5% of GNP. There is no way that tariffs caused or even contributed greatly to the Great Depression.
Today, imports are equal to 16% of GNP and 23% of Americans are unemployed.

That’s right. It’s the employment numbers that matter.
The MSM is the greatest threat to the Country!
