Good one
Maybe they should all enlist and revive the old song:
You're in the Army now
Sitting behind a plow
You'll never get rich
You son of a bitch
You're in the Army now
The folks in the red T shirts are actually pawns. They were moved forward seeking $15.
Being pawns, they are unaware of the chessmaster making the move
The real reason or the move is to force a bottom up inflation is wages, not only among pawns but for rooks and bishops and even queens. The ultimate success of Obamacare depends on inflation of wages that masks the increase in the cost of health care.
If aliens had any hand in our economy, it’d be roaring, because then INTELLIGENT life would be involved.
I tend to agree, but they also lie about real inflation, which would auto-correct over time by a rise in wages (historically wages have beat inflation so our parents actually became better off over the years as everything went up). We are unique in that the efforts to destroy the Middle Class are succeeding by allowing "non-existent" inflation to run wild while keeping wages stagnant. Our generation (born in '50s and '60s) is the new "norm" in that our status deteriorates instead of improving as the world spins around.
The unemployment rate, when you include the dropouts is 11%. We need to be using the real number, not the government’so fake number.
Smoke and mirrors, just in time for elections.
I recently read that historically just prior to elections, the unemployment rate drops and then increases shortly after the elections are over. It will be interesting to see if that trend continues. I have a strong feeling it will remain on course as it has for some time. As I initially stated, “smoke and mirrors”. Odumbo’s crew want to make things look good for the incumbents prior to the election and unfortunately (for them) have to go back to reality after the dust settles.

if we stopped the influx of illegals and sent the ones here back to where they came from their wages would rise. Simple supply and demand. Obama would like it both ways however and as usual is only successful in pitting people against one another.
With over 92 million people out of the work force since Obama’s inauguration, not counted because they are out of unemployment benefits, no wonder this economy is up on blocks. If it weren’t for the Texas oil men and fracking, Obama would have had a full-blown Depression to his credit.

Where in the the hell has my country gone?
Well I have been wondering about the same thing for quite some time, but I have a feeling that those good old days are gone for good. As far as the $ 15.00 minimum wage is concerned it may very well pass some times or another, with the result being just as you stated that everything else will move up proportionally.
In the end the only thing what may have changed are the figures, but conditions pretty much remained the same. In order to bring about real change it will take education in subjects which count such as, math, science, physics, BA, etc.
On the other hand this would be detrimental to the socialistic (liberal) cause as it would deny them the lifeblood of their existence, as they thrive on keeping their constituents ignorant, dumb and preferably poor so they will keep on voting for them and in return keep them in perpetual power. That’s the whole idea behind socialism.
In the beginning it may very well start out with good intentions, but in the long run it usually ends with a flop. Once again bringing the old adage to mind “That the road to hell is paved with good intentions” But in order to recognize this it takes brains, and the only way to come by this commodity is EDUCATION.
I agree with what you said - add to ti the very real war to destroy the Middle Class and you have the perfect stage for a nation that has two classes - the drudges and the elites.
Opie: If I buy a thinner wallet does that mean I have more money?
Obama: Yes, and that’s not fair.
John, John, John don’t you know we are less than a month out of the election?
In their euphoria over their huge successes in 2009 and 2010, they forgot to massage the unemployment numbers and pretty much got creamed in the 2010 elections. But in 2012 they did a little manipulating of the BLS numbers ( and lots of other things) and SHAZAM the Low Information Voters swept them back into office.
I, for one would not be surprised if this did not happen again in 2014. Especially given the duplicity of their opposition.
I got an idea! Let's give all those 8 million, illegal aliens work visas.
Smoke and mirrors, just in time for elections.

Exactly. I told my wife on Thursday night that the number would be 5.9%. This wasn’t any precience on my part; it was inevitable. The number HAD to be below 6% because they needed an October Surprise to help rescue Dem senatorial candidates. Simple as that.
But this administration has zero credibility now. People no longer believe anything they say so this “news” will be a one day flash in the pan.
