it's simple.if your not providing a service, america doesn't need you.also people getting paid way more than they are worth to the america.your talking people getting paid in the millions per year for no reason other than they think they deserve it.news anchors,ceos ,actors,athletes,bankers,just all the high up mucky mucks.americans are waking up.we don't need an upper class.we need hard working people providing a service of some sort and if you become rich because you earned it ,great!
Just think, one out of every 10.2 people in the country right now is unemployed and that's not even counting people that have just simply given up looking for a job. If you average that in, then the real unemployment rate is probably around 12-15% right now. But officially (unemployment benefit receipiants) is at 10.2% and rising...
Unemployment is rising because of many factors -- for one, the stimulus (flub) bill fell on its face along with Pelosi... then with the threat of heavy taxation, small and large businesses are getting scared so they lay off and expect the surviving employees to pick up the slack and produce rather than slack. Therefore, companies are finding that's the ONLY way to make any chance of a profit in this Depression! This will not change. I predict it will be at 11.5% by Xmas - if not higher.
What does this country expect when they vote Dems into power!
NO ONE I know is going to do any hiring until Obama is out of office...they don't trust this administration with anything and especially not our money.
you think unemployment is high now wait until this health care kicks in and trade and tax kicks in unemployment will hit 70%. i am tired of hearing he promised change if you had been listening to what he was saying you would know he is giving us the change he promised, you must have been off in a dream state when he was talking. if you had been watching fox news instead of these ( i call no news channels) you would have gotten the truth. you put him in there you deserve what he is doing.
I was just watched the morning News Reports, seems Unemployment is NOT 10.2 % as the Bummer administration has been claiming,.. No it is today 17.5 % when those who have grown so discouraged they simply stopped looking for one of the millions of jobs Bummer claims he created.
Please, some one EXPLAIN to me why our UN-EMPLOYMENT RATES KEEP CLIMBING AND WHY 18 ~ 20 million are now UNDER-EMPLOYED or UNEMPLOYED? So WHERE OH WHERE are those (what was it THREE MILLION HIGH PAYING JOBS OBUMMER PROMISED IN HIS FIRST YEAR IN OFFICE? HECK I WANT TO KNOW WHERE THESE million jobs the Bummer administration CLAIMED to have created are, because the truth is,.., I do not believe them and I highly doubt the estimated 18 ~ 20 million now without jobs believe Bummer & Joe either.
The SIMPLEST SIMPLETON UNDERSTANDS Jobs are NOT created by RAISING TAXES, CREATING A MASSIVE NEW ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM AND Imposing FINES or adds an 8 % tax PER. EACH NEW EMPLOYEE HIRED IN A RECESSION OR IS THIS NOW A DEPRESSION? WHAT,...Are they intending to PUT A STOP TO ALL FUTURE JOBS CREATION OR WHAT? THAT ONE 8 % tax IMPOSED BY O'BUMMER CARE will do just that as small business already being strangled by the Bummer Economy and heavy taxes...must now pay an additional 8 % tax on ANY new employees to HELP FINANCE Bummer Care...how many small business could THEN AFFORD TO ADD NEW EMPLOYEES? THIS IDIOCY should finish off any hopes for new jobs creation, except in the bummer government, and those are jobs we the taxpayer must pay for with our tax dollars, completely. Just my take...Lets hear yours.
This economic mess was a contrived crisis, starting with the
2006 election. After 9/11 this country had managed to roll up it's sleeves, and we had a booming economy. I know because our 401K was sweet. Now we've lost half of what we had worked for all our lives. This theft of funds was aimed at the Baby Boomers -- all ripe for the picking and Wall Street wanted it for themselves. Thanks BHO and PEE-LOSI!
Someone Posted these, They deserve a Post Here, Hope no one minds.
OBAMA HAS SENT MANY JOBS TO CHINA BECAUSE THEY BOUGHT OUR BONDS-NOW HE'S SLOWLY DESTROYING THE DOLLAR!
The Bernanke stock-market bubble caused by keeping interest rates at zero is merely a repeat of the Greenspan housing bubble that was caused by keeping interest rates at 1 percent in 2003-2004. With millions of jobs outsourced to China and India under free-trade globalism, the dollar weakness that accompanies most recessions is not simulative as the Obama people had believed, largely because the U.S. has lost so many manufacturing jobs that are never returning to its shores.
DON'T BANK ON THIS ADMINISTRATION - MUCH WORSE TIMES WILL BE COMING
The stock-market bubble will most certainly burst when interest rates rise, as they inevitably will," Corsi wrote, "both to fight the increasing risk of hyperinflation and to maintain the needed incentive for foreign nations to lend the U.S. Treasury the hundreds of billions of dollars monthly that will be sorely needed to float yet another $1 trillion or more Obama administration federal budget deficit in 2010."
DECEIT IS RAMPANT IN WASHINGTON
The convenience is that by reporting unemployment at 10.2 percent instead of at 22.1 percent, the Obama administration can clearly continue advancing the argument the U.S. economy is in recovery and the recession is over, even if the truth belies those claims," Corsi wrote. Williams concludes that the economy is not recovering, but has been stimulated by excess liquidity placed into the financial system by the Federal Reserve keeping federal-funds rates at the historically low rate of zero.
SHOCKING NUMBERS: Real unemployment tops 22%
So, how does the Obama administration get away with reporting the lower unemployment percentage? Corsi explained that the Clinton administration changed the way BLS calculates unemployment statistics by excluding "discouraged workers," those who had given up looking for a job because there were no jobs to be found. Since the Clinton years, discouraged workers looking for a job for more than one year are not counted as "unemployed" because they are considered to have dropped out of the labor pool.
Hey here is a perk up for those who have lost their homes, or jobs, it seems Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac say they will not ask for more Federal Bail out dollars just yet, you see GMAC has beat them to the trough, asking for more $billions of your tax dollars, I guess Fannie & Freddie don't want to appear HOGGY-EST I recon! Nice? 10.2 % unemployment and the USUAL suspects for tax payer bailout have their hand out again. Why? The BUMMER PLANS ARE FAILING PEOPLE, Some ADULT in our government best wake up! My take on these events, what is yours?
Homework Questions. This must be completed before you are allowed to start a "discussion". 1) Much of the "value" of our economy is based on property values. 2)How do interest rates affect the price of a house? 3)If the Fed needs to raise interest rates to control inflation in the future, what happens to property values and how does that ripple through the economy? 4)Is this cause for concern? 5)Should you hold off hiring or making capital investments in your small business?
My son is one of those unemployed in NV trying to find a job Now My daughter has just found out that her dept is being done away with and she and the people she works with may or may not be absorbed into another dept so she is going from day to day not knowing if she will have a job tomorrow. Her husband is disabled so they depend on her wages.She has been looking for another job just in case and there is nothing so please don't knock the unemployment because you never know when you may be next
has anyone asked how the economy would be without all the wetbacks from mexico working illegally and not paying taxes and being genarally hate american %$#@holes
Dear Greta,A few days ago I was awoken by a man who couldnt speak english and then told me that because of the stimulus money i was going to get new showerheads, lightfixtures,e.t.c. the co.s name was "wineguard energy" based out of fresno or madera county and they are using federal stimulus money to hire illegal aliens! i am unemployed right now and could easily do that job! please forward this to glenn beck, thank you
Isn't it ironic......Americans have never been enslaved by any other country. We are freedom loving people, independent and strong. We take care of ourselves. It is OUR OWN GOVERNMENT who is forcing us into slavery. People are "beginning" to wake up, but we have to come together as one voice and stand up, shout, and DEMAND that this spending, taxing, FORCED health care idiocy and Government intrusion STOP NOW. We have to act NOW or we will regret it later when we have no voice.
The Stimulus never worked. Obama used it to pay off his campaign debts and build the federal budget. There were a few political payoffs in construction but they aren't turning anything around. Obama wants everyone un-employed and broke so he can control them. There is more bad news coming cause it isn't nearly over yet. Americans better hold onto their hats cause there is a big storm brewing in Washington and it is going to make or break us all.
You think things are bad now, wait until BOB signs the "Climate Debt Treaty" in Copenhagen. What is going on now is nothing compared to what will happen when we lose our sovereignty to the Eurpopean Union and the World Court.
It is very simple. Businesses are not taking in enough revenue to support personnel budget expenditures. So... the only thing they can do to weather the storm and stay in business is to reduce their personnel expenditures. BTW, the "stimulus" approach can only produce a temporary blip if any blip at all.
I'm hearing a lot of regret from citizens that voted for OBAMA.
One Big***Mistake America!Our government is destroying our economy. 10.2% unemployment now.Stimulus Plan did not work. Wasted taxpayer dollars. The Democrats are putting climate change and health care before our economy.We need small business tax cuts. As the economy gets worse, business owners are going to try to save their businesses, this will result in more job loss. Less people will have income, less money flows in the economy.
