We did fine with union jobs for decades. We lost our ass when the financial sector started playing with money like it was a monopoly game. Now they have the right singing their tune so they can get even lower tax rates. You are being used man. Wake up. Right to work is not a right. It's a scheme to lower wages and cut benifits to make the top 1% richer yet. Tort reform isn't reform. It's a scheme to keep 12 jures from making decisions. Cutting regulations is not to help the economy. It's to make life easier on those playing monopoly with our future. You are so indoctrinated you don't even realize you are being used.

There is some truth in that.........


Romney isn't going to change much at all in the big picture but, the spin will different from the right.....

Imagine that......

He's a puppet operated by mentally defective puppeteers playing to an audience they believe to be composed of imbeciles.

And unions went to sh*t when they were allowed in government. JFK messed that up.

Financial companies should be able to make or lose as much as they want. Bailing them out was the mistake now they think they can get away with anything.

Every state should right to work. Employment should never require union membership.

Get government off people's *sses and we will recover quickly. You can't regulate success.

Financial companies should be able to make or lose as much as they want, AS long as it's their own money they are playing with. Removing regulations that allowed them to play and risk YOUR money was the mistake. They had no choice but to bail them out because it wasn't Corporate Money they lost on bad investments it was YOUR money, and MY money. Now that those regulations are back in place thanks to Frank/Dodd Jamie Dimon can go lose 7 billion dollars of JP Morgan money and the Government can tell them to stick it. They risked their own ass, not Tax payers money.

Yeah and every state job should start out at minimum wage, have no benefits, not pay overtime, screw your vacation time, and forget about ever making enough money to actually have a life... You know, all those bad things Unions do for people.

I keep telling you that you don't even realize you are spewing the company line. One of these days you will realize how you have been being used.

He has a bad habit of that. If you think increasing the debt to give people like Romney a tax cut is going to change anything much vote for him. But keep in mind that our normal unemployment is 5-6%. Right now it's 8.2%. Lets use a little perspective.
Mikeyy you almost always have somethings in your posts that could use some proof besides you word. And I am not calling you a lier. I just (like others)
prefer actual written proof....

So in our search for true perspectives why not back up the items I underlined or placed in bold?
Which you never seem to bother with.


Sense I posted a news piece in the Economics Topic area showing the economy is flat, and most decent jobs, because the employers aren't hiring over the fact of unknown cost to them in seveal areas.

1. 92% of Americans, do the dang numbers Mikeyy...

2. Around 250+ million of Americans are able to work, yet with the amount of un-employment, some states being 4+ points above the average plenty of that number aren't even looking for any jobs. Or did your math just leave these people out of the count?

3. Then we have those who are un-employed and still looking for work. And plenty of people just out of college that can't find anything that could be called a job.

Take the two sets of numbers, 2. and 3. and add them up then take #1. and divide them and see if it is really 92% employed..

I don't have to do the math to know your wrong.

The TRUE unemployment figure is around 15%. According to the BLS, the actual civilian labor force participation rate is 63.8% (June 2012) not 92%. Again, according to the BLS, the civilian labor force participation rate in Jan. 2009 when Obama took office was 65.7%, so we have actually lost 2% of the total people we had working in 2009. Makes you wonder where Obama gets the claim that he has created 4.4 million jobs.
