CSPAN is running some programs regarding labor.

They just finished with Sec. of Labor Hilda Solis. [I turned it on about 45 minutes into her interview.]

She was talking/blaming gridlock for the economic situation. She also said during the Obama Term, they have created 2.4 million jobs, even though they only managed a few thousand the last few months.

[And she said it with a straight face. They have repeated the lies so many times, they actually believe the lies themselves.]

Next segment has Fiscal Times Senior Editor, Yuval Rosenberg. He says the economy needs to be adding at least 130,000 new jobs per month just to attain the break-even point, but things are going alright because consumer spending is good.

Caller complains that businesses are sitting on bundles of cash and refusing to hire people. Rosenberg agrees with caller. [He fails explain that buinesses are apprehensive, because of the uncertain business environment.]

Rosenberg says the last stimulus did create 2.9 million jobs, but the money could have been spent better.

[I can’t listen to any more of this clueless propaganda.]
