In this Article "The government's report on job market in January offered fresh hope that the economy is at last pulling out of it's worst downturn since the Great Depression." The article goes on to say that the data offered little cause for celebration. That the job rate dropped from 10% to 9.7%. That a lot of people were starting to get part time jobs, but wanted full time pay. They say if we just stay patiecent for the next 3-6 months that jobs will start back up. But, offered no proof or cause for celebration. That it would take the economy creating 100,000 to 125,000 jobs a month to keep up with population growth. Mark Zandi said "I don't think we're close yet to even a stable rate at this point. We have yet to see any hiring. Until we get real, positive, substantive job growth, it's hard to conclude this is a self-sustaining economy.
I agree with Mark Zandi. Do they really think they can throw this at us and make us feel better and hopefull?
They show NO proof of jobs comming back. People are getting part time jobs because a part time job is better than no job! Duh! Why try to give us hope when there is none. This is why I get so upset about raising money for other countries. Look 8.4 million people are without a job! Who's helping them? My husband was one of those who's job got sent overseas; thanks to Bush haveing open the doors for business to go to other countries. So, hats off to Bush for Screwing his own nation. But don't worry about him we pay his bills with our tax paying money.
So, here's my questions when are we going to ask the RICH to donate to the poor! For christmas my husband had to voulunteer to do work for the military in another country so his daughters could have christmas. Yes, you heard me my husband had to risk his life just to pay the bills and get christmas for our kids! All because his normal job went overseas. Where is the JUSTICE? When do we stand up and help our own? I am really starting to hate this country. We pay for every other nation and we listen to the ads on tv where you can send money to help the starving children of another poor country, but nobody will open their wallets to their own fellow Americans. Here's the definition of America. America- A truly retarded Nation that cares more about other nations then their own.
Sad part is my husband is in the Army and we are very patriotic, but it's hard to support a RETARDED nation!
Jessica,
ReplyDeleteDon't hate the country for being compassionate, even if it is a bit misguided sometimes. The reason we donate so much money is because those who ask for the money know that they can appeal to our hearts, and we will respond.
It isn't right that our military is not taken care of in a better manner, I agree.
As far as Bush screwing us, this started before Bush was in office with the NAFTA treaty. Back when Clinton was running for office, there was Ross Perot who was running against him. He said that if NAFTA passes, the giant sucking sound that you'll hear are all of the American jobs going south of the border. He was right and you are feeling the effects, personally.
Likewise, Obama has done nothing to stop this effect. I don't want to be a separationist or an isolationist, but then again...maybe I do.
Good article. Keep up the love for USA, and keep these things in mind during the next election.
