President Obama has successfully conned the American public on a number of things, none more egregiously than the American economy and labor rates. His solution for the great recession that began at the start of his first term was to spend massive amounts of borrowed money on what he called “shovel ready jobs.”
It turns out that most of the money went to short term union jobs, and although unemployment is now reported to be at about 5% nationally, many experts are saying that the real rate is perhaps at 10% to 15%. The difference is ascribed to the huge number of people who have given up and are no longer in the labor force and therefore not counted, and the number of people who are working only part time or at low income jobs below their skill level.
This is not the America we have come to expect, and the Obama administration’s blatant antagonism towards business has worsened the problem considerably. These economic facts do not exist in a vacuum, and it is clear that American households are suffering as well. New economic research shows some dire consequences of Obama’s mismanagement of the economy, and a “cool” explanation from Obama is not going to change the economic reality that U.S. families are now suffering.
See page 2 for household income analyisis:
Yet we have plenty of money to resettle “syrian immigrants” and give them government benefits-what happened to taking care of our own first?
But the economy is better , so says lord Obama.
I’m also saying there is no help for the working class! People who have aspirations for a better life and work to give their families a decent living have no assistance from the government! Obummer only supports the lazy and people who refuse to work. I work and so does my husband. We bring home less money now and insurance is only for the wealthy or for people who do not work and has never worked! Even if you had a job last year and lost your job this year the assistance program goes back to the past year income tax returns that have nothing to do with your current status!
No wonder CRIME is up!!!
Jim.. Please go back and read! Stop being so quick to respond! Anyone who reads would know what I am saying! I guess I give people too much credit.. Thinking they could understand plain English!
The muslims and refugees seem to do fine. They get all the benefits we have
Then why are”illegal aliens” being brought here and treated so well with all the freebees the left hands out while Americans suffer. WHY????? Because the left wants to change the face of America and they want it done by bringing people from other countries here to tear apart OUR culture as quickly as possible. TAKE CARE of OUR own FIRST. Honestly, we,ve helped the world plenty and it has’nt changed the way they view us at all. Enough nonsence. Stop the flow of “illegal aliens” into the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. Stop the Liberal insanity NOW.
In other words Jim .. We are on the same side! Sorry about your job.. There are so many hard working people out of work.. It’s heart breaking.
So right Josephine!
You folks are so full of$#%&!@*and stupid. The recession fully started on GW’s watch and in fact caused by his policies….Fuckin A you people have no fucking brains whatsoever….If Romney had won we’d still be fucked….assholes.
