And it will go much higher under this nut. He has done nothing for the working men and women, just the fat cats. This health care bill is just more of the same, every tax payer will pay more for less.Obama is no better then the nut at Fort Hood, out to kill the american people. Remember he wrote in his book " I will stand with the muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction "" He does an so did the nut at Fort Hood.
UNEMPLOYMENT:::: YA WELL THERE ARE ALOT OUT THERE THAT AREN'T LOOKING FOR A JOB AS LONG AS YOU GIVE THEM A CHECK FROM THE GOV. THIS IS BUUL CRAP, THERE ARE JOBS OUT THERE EVEN IF THERE PART TIME. BUT HAVE GOTTON SO LAZY IT'S EASIER TO SAY I CAN'T FIND A JOB.. WELL THEN GET INTO THE SERVICE A**HOLES. OH HELL NO YA DON'T WANT TO DO THAT EITHER.. SCREW YOU LAZY JERKS. DON'T FEEL THAT SORRY FOR YA...
I'm starting to think Obama is an undercover terrorist that was sent here to destroy America!
Obama states that he will get more jobs for Americans. The only problem is he is refering to South Americans only.
We have record unemployment. We have record legal immigration.
We have citizens who are laid off and H1-B visas given for the same jobs.
And today he refused to tell the Hispanic causcus that he stands by his statements about refusing illegal immigrants access to our expensive healthcare plan. Pelosi refused to put verification requirements into the health bill so illegals will get it all.
Next step amnesty for them so they'll get that and welfare, food stamps, housing, disability, etc too - like they aren't getting those things now- lol.
Unemployment up - immigration/visas up - corelation????? Supply/demand theory anyone????
Obama never "warned" us that 10% unemployment was coming. He always talks about how the economy is turning around thanks to his stimulus package.
Obama said when he first became president that unemployment wouldnt top 10% if he could get the stimulus package passed.
What a total and complete phucking tool this idiot is. he signs a 24 billion dollar bill to "stimulate" home buying while thousands of Americans are loosing their jobs and homes are being foreclosed on in record numbers, yet he signs a bill to buy homes. Funny, who the hell is going to buy them, the ILLEGAL mexicans that have all the jobs? This phucking moron couldn't lead anyone out of a one way tunnel much less a whole damn country. It's painlessly obvious he has NO idea what the hell he is doing and will continue to run this country into the ground and won't stop until he's gone and bankrupt us, it's time to go Black Osama, time for NEW leadership!
So he finally has to OWN something. maybe he can apologize to the american people for being a failure. Maybe if he wasnt campaigning for heath care he might have been able to focus on Jobs. He has done nothing for US except run his mouth to the point where his lips are callous. He does not know how to lead, just talk the good talk. Always and excuse, always an explanation, never any results.
He OWNS it PERIOD!
Obama has lied so much even he has a hard time remembering what the truth is.He has done permanent damage to the Democratic party and they will once again find themselves irrelevent
Bob,
Great write-up about the fallacies of Reaganomics.
Likewise, the bush43 cuts benefited the wealthy, though not the middle class. America went from a balanced budget under Clinton to instant budget deficits. And these bush43 tax cuts did NOT result in increased wealth: The housing bubble was inflated by borrowed money. The subsequent housing crash would have resulted in a Depression because of the frozen credit markets. Only government intervention prevented the complete panic. Of course, there is Phil Gramm, who believes this whole recession is only in our heads!
Right wing nuts: drop your mindless blather, focus on the real issues and get your info "right"!
Unemployment was supposed to cap at 8.5% if the bank bail out was approved. Unemployment is now at 10.2% nationally and over 12% in California where an estimated 2.2 million people are unemployed.
With healthcare insurance reform and cap and trade taxes significantly increasing small business costs...small business owners will not have enough money to pay salaries to hire new people. They'll be paying Obama for his new social programs.
He just doesn't get it. And he can't blame Bush.
The reason for the entire mortgage meltdown was the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1998 engineered by Secretary of the Treasury Robert Rubin (ex-Goldman Sachs Chairman) and signed into law by President Clinton. Look it up on Wikipedia.
I can't wait to hear the phrase "what we are talking about is the failed policies of Barack Obama" repreated endelessly in the 2010 and 2012 elections.
HOPE AND CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOPE AND CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOPE AND CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Hope You Like Your Pocket Change.....
LOL
LOL
LOL
Hows that HOPE AND CHANGE crap working out for all you people that voted for this nut and are now unemployed? Careful what you wish for. Before you thing I'm being rude. Trust me, I see no humor in a 10% unemployment rate. I think its unconscionable and wrong.
hektor, you liberal f#ck. Why don't you add up all the red negatives that you are about to receive & compare them against all the green "thumbs-up" that everyone whom opposed this dipsh!t president has? Guess where the popular opinion is? Oh, Yeah...not with you. You are clearly in the minority here. Either you are phishing or you are truly ignorant. Regards, Ed C
Look...lets cut the BS and call this what it is....a complete failure of democratic policies to stimulate the economy...the goverment does NOT create jobs...they may temporarily create work as witnessed by the short term bump in GDP this past quarter...but overall this economy is in the shitter and about to get flushed. So America...we are at a crossroads...are we willing to sign on to the new democrat economy...loss of freedom, government control, high unemployment etc, etc...or are we ready to declare our INDEPENDENCE from government control...VOTE all these BUMS out in 2010...these people no longer hold the best interests of America in their heart. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OBAMAS PLAN IS WORKING BEAUTIFULLY --- HE IS SYSTEMATICALLY DESTROYING OUR ECONOMY BUT DECIMATING SMALL BUSINESS, EXPANDING DEBT AT A GEOMETRIC RATE NEVER SEEN BEFORE, AND ENLARGING THE WELFARE STATE --- THE LONGER IT LASTS AND BIGGER WELFARE GETS -- THE EASIER IT IS FOR THE USA TO TURN SOCIALIST. THIS BASTERD KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE'S DOING AND IT'S WORKING -- JUST NOT THE WAY MOST REAL AMERICANS WANT IT TO. BUT IF YOUR THE TYPE WHO LIKES BEING IDLE, LAZY, WATCH TV WHILE SMOKING DOPE THEN GETTING OUT OF YOUR RENT STABLIZED APARTMENT TO SELL MORE DOPE ON THE STREET -- WELL YOU LOVE OBAMA AND HIS SOCIALIST MARKIST ILK. OBAMA WINS EVERY DAY HE REMAINS IN OFFICE --- WE WILL LOSE OUR HISTORY -- OUR NATION --- AND EVENTUALLY WE'LL BE SMOKING DOPE ON SOME SMELLY COUCH WATCHING OBAMA CROWNED AS THE "BIG KAHOONA" --- JUST PATHETIC.
The real issue is jobs that have left this country and are still doing so at a record pace. The recovery will never take effect because if you don't work to produce you have no money to spend!. What good is an additional tax break for purchasing a house when I do not have a job in the first place !!!! This administration is just like all the rest....and it's not about helping someone in my shoes.
Liar, Liar Pants on Fire...did Odumbo not go on National Television and promise the American people that if the $870,000.000.000 Stimulus passed he would hold Unemployement to 8%? Looks like Mr. Joe Wilson was inded right afterall huh Libs? Oh wait, let me guess. You Libs are going to give him a free pass on this to right?
edc,
You are just of those elfin idiots, who probably never even took an econ class in their life. One thing I've noticed is that right wing nuts, those of our ilk, offer only mindless blather. The recession was already one year old, when Phil Gramm commented that this very real recession is only in America's head. Only government intervention prevented the complete panic, when the credit markets froze up. And yet, you would complain about the deficits that originated with the bush43 tax cuts, which only benefited the wealthy. These same tax cuts are what limits the flexibility of the government to intervene. Unless you have the facts straight, I would advise you to stfu. If you get my drift...
Most economic indicators are now starting to show we will experience something worse than the Great Depression of the 1930's... hang on folks. We are already seeing people cracking under pressure, all the shootings taking place toward former employers that laid them off.
Good luck
It is intuitively obviously clear to the most casual observer, that this site is a favorite for a whole lot of losers who need to vent. Pure mindless blather.... QED
Fact is America could have been sitting at 24% unemployment if there were no government intervention at all. Peruse the Newsweek article by Jon Alter. That is if right wing nuts do any serious reading.
