We Want Jobs, We Want Smaller Government
At least we are getting one of the two. We are getting smaller government from the Federal Government down to local governments. That is part of the jobs problems. Public sector jobs (Government) are shrinking faster than the private sector can create new ones.
If you take Government jobs (those lazy suckers that feed at the public trough by getting paid to make your life miserable) out of the equation, we actually had private sector job gains. This is the thing Republicans do not want you to know. They want you to believe that the private sector cannot create jobs because of to many taxes and to much regulation.
The new media doesn’t help either because they focus on what sales and bashing President Obama on jobs is selling great these days.
Here is the Bureau of Labor Statistics report. Check it out for yourselves.
Sure that is all The Republicans really,really,…..really want
Crazy Things Rick Perry has said
“Even if an alcoholic is powerless over alcohol once it enters his body, he still makes a choice to drink,” he wrote. “And, even if someone is attracted to a person of the same sex, he or she still makes a choice to engage in sexual activity with someone of the same gender.”
“ I think in America from time to time we have to go through some difficult times — and I think we’re going through those difficult economic times for a purpose, to bring us back to those Biblical principles of you know, you don’t spend all the money. You work hard for those six years and you put up that seventh year in the warehouse to take you through the hard times. And not spending all of our money. Not asking for Pharaoh to give everything to everybody and to take care of folks because at the end of the day, it’s slavery. We become slaves to government.”
“I am a firm believer in intelligent design as a matter of faith and intellect, and I believe it should be presented in schools alongside the theories of evolution.”
On the BP Oil Spill, “From time to time there are going to be things that occur that are acts of God that cannot be prevented.”
From a guy vying for the top federal government job in the land, “There’s a lot of different scenarios. We’ve got a great union. There’s absolutely no reason to dissolve it. But if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what might come out of that. But Texas is a very unique place, and we’re a pretty independent lot to boot.”
Just for you John… I downloaded and studied the PDF (on dial up). It does appear that state government employees stayed stable and federal government employees lost jobs. Offsetting private sector gains. Where are the conservatives congratulating the administration for doing what they advise?
My state is about to try to outlaw abortion and birth control. I’m still trying to figure out how it’s going to create jobs or keep the big gubment out of our lives. 😥
You use the Public sector in a ression to get people working. I sort of think America has forgotten about the New Deal. I am so sick of the left not being prepared to go up against the right who are fucking insane.
Good blog. I gave this to Mango, I’ll give it to you too…a link to a story of how conservative politics and capitalism has killed yet another person. Killed by toothache
D. Have you noticed you can’t get a Vid of Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s satelite address to the 2008 RNC convention?
Some real Stalin like stuff, Republican operatives scrubbing google and YouTube.
My apologies, John. I was reading yours and D’s blogs at the same time.
I have had a hard week at work and I am still too tired to be on here.
Please feel free to delete my comments.
I hope you are doing well and have a great Saturday.
