‘Cause America is not working?

You can jack taxes up only so high before the money stops being put into the economy.

Because the 47 percent realize that NOT working and collecting welfare checks, cashing in EBT cards, living in subsidized housing, plus hundreds of other free perks is better than working, we see - easily see - why unemployment is over 20 percent.

Because Socialism isn't working.

[Buckeye McFrog]

All that means is we’re creating a huge constituency for the next left-wing charlatan who comes along and promises to recreate the WPA.

I blame president bush /s

[faithhopecharity]

they’re not working ... because the administration has overseen the destruction of millions of jobs (and prevents or disincentivizes the creation of new ones)

we have 2 and a half more years of this downward spiral, gang, get used to it...

[Mr. K]

because its bush’s fault and you’re a racist

[StevieRay20]

Very simple. There is no way they could even begin to claim success at 10% unemployment. Keynesianism would be relegated to the trash bin once and for all. But much like the Depression, as long as the rate slowly ticks down over time, liberals claim victory.

Because for some it is more profitable to hire foreigners, here or there, legal or not?

No Opportunity: America’s Young Face Permanent Setback

Many, if not most of the entry level jobs for High School graduates are being given to the illegal aliens. A young man just out of High School who was not on a track to go to college used to be able to pick up a job in construction or another field of like ability. Those jobs are now being given to the illegals because the business owner can pay them under the table and skip all those onerous taxes.

We should be happy that those owners, along with their buddies in the Chamber of Commerce are trying so hard to bring in even more people who will work for slave wages and cut out more American youth from the job market. /sarc

[Repeal The 17th]

20 million jobless Americans and 20 million illegal immigrants.
Coincidence?
I think not.

[null and void]

Because no matter how many excellent fit jobs I apply for the captains of my industry swear under oath to congress that they simply can't, just can't, find any Americans to fill them, and congress authorizes evermore cheap H-1Bs to take them.

(Yes, I know H-1Bs are supposed to be paid the "prevailing wage". Cheap foreign labor SETS the prevailing wage, and BTW, I'd be delighted to work for an H-1B's wage.)

[Lorianne]

They’ve all decide to be musicians, poets or artists now that they aren’t locked into a job!

It’s going to be the new Renaissance!

Nearly everyone is a part of the problem, and not many are trying to do anything to solve it.

They discuss politics with Republicans while giving our money to Democrats.

About "70 million" people receiving incomes from various levels of government and government-linked businesses receive large incomes but are steeped in debt and spending all that they receive.
