California reported receiving 111 million dollars of stimulus money. And with that they were able to create 55 jobs. That works out to 2 million per job. And the dems wonder why the people are fed up with Obama's stimulus polities?
And yet Obama still wants to increase the taxes of the rich. And he's willing to let the middle class suffer tax increases unless he gets his way. He's a turtle on a fence post.
The Col: you are aware that the people here that read my stuff don't have the brains to comprehend the real problem. That's because most of you only know the democratic talking points. And that's why instead of talking about real issues, you prefer to discuss masturbation.
The Col: And that is precisely the problem with liberal thinkers such as yourself. One would think that with such huge amounts of money, there would be more to start. That's barely a medium size business. And what will liberals like you say when that number stays under a hundred? That's still a million dollars of tax money for only one job.
Historically, lower taxes, smaller government, responsible spending, and a tighter reign on entitlement payments meant more jobs. Obamacare has killed more jobs than the stimulus will create. And Obama is so arrogant that he's talking about spending more? The nation is against him and he ignores it all. He's incompetent and so are your liberal heros that are about to find themselves on the unemployment line.
An unemployed worker can make more on unemployment than they can at an entry level job. So why work? This is absolutely the case. It's why extending unemployment benefits was a bad idea. Unemployed workers have admitted that they won't take a job if they can make more money on unemployment. That's BS. Get two jobs then. And that's exactly what they'd do if they didn't have unemployment to cuddle them through.
It won't matter. There is a landslide coming and Obama will be a lame duck way before his time.

Artful Dodger: I think in a nutshell you have provided a microcosm of why there is so little bipartisan work accomplished in Washington.There is nothing to be gained by working my lil stubby fingers to the bone trying to find a common ground,so why bother
Bernice: Ever notice that the liberals that post her ignore the facts they are presented with? Such as high taxes on businesses drive businesses OUT of business (or out of the state OR overseas). These are facts. One look at California and even Washington State bears this out. California is in dire straights. They have lost tons of businesses due to high tax rates. California has high entitlement payouts and they have bankrupt the state. People have left the State due to unfair taxes. And the Obama model is exactly this! Wise up libs! It's not working because this approach to economics NEVER works.
Artful Dodger: Have you ever thought there might be other factors involved besides taxes... I mean.. anyone who's got half a brain and enters into business KNOWS that THEY WILL HAVE to pay tax before they start. If they don't they deserve to fail.
California is in dire straights .. some more detail would be fair rather than spin!!
