Case in point...Obama has created more jobs in this country in his short time in office than Bush did in 8.   Facts  is facts....


Hey what happened to my chart?????   Well here is a link...

Now try to understand the reasons and come back in a year or so when you do.

Bush was horrid on domestic policy, I will give you that.. but I don’t believe Obama is a lot better. I know when ends don’t meet at my house we cut back. Yeah it sucks but then again unlike the people we have in Washington I can ‘t print my own money.. well ok I could but I’m too pretty for prison. Also I have never gotten a job from a poor person.. so yeah lets hike the hell out of the taxes on the rich... they wont pick up and leave or find some shelter.. nope I'm sure they will give it all up.

It wasn't the POOR people who moved the job overseas so they could increase their stock options.

Look, if it were up to the Republicans and right wingers, there would be no social security, no medical coverage for the poor and elderly, no women's right to choose, a state sponsored religion, no unions, no worker's rights, no control on pollution (hey they like brown air), no research into alternative energy resources, no rights to due process and the police could torture confessions out of everyone.

He finally said something true. I do really get bored with Ayn Rand types who have no idea what the tax rate was during the 1950's.

Wrong.  The producers ARE the corporations.  Many corporations, especially in the textile industry, operate almost entirely with robotics.  So are those corporations not producers?  Of course they are.  The fact is that a worker is not a worker unless he has a plant, foundry, assembly line, etc. to work at.  The corporation is the producer and the worker and the rest of society are consumers, hopefully, of that product.  Neither can exist without the other.

The workers who work and work and produce and produce until the company is so successful it can buy automated machinery, cutting jobs to keep the bottom line up, oh and to pay higher divis to those important shareholders.
I guess soylent green will be in production soon, (no humans needed to run it)

They should be in business only to provide jobs and not seek to make money for the people who are taking the risk on the success of the business? If my view if flawed tell me how, I'm not trying to nesserly provoke you. Rather I am trying to understand the logic.

Facts is facts?  Idiocy...  Some simple questions arise from your post.  Why was unemployment 4.5% to 5.5% under Bush and 9% and higher under your messianic Obama?  Here...read this and edify yourself on the issue of who actually created more jobs.  You will be surprised and probably a bit miserable.

Soylent Green!!!!  Great movie.  That being said, I love the utterly devoid of common sense argument that it is wrong to maximize profits.  Yup...we should pay people $50.00 per hour to sink a screw through a piece of sheet metal...a job that a 5th grader could do after 20 minutes of instruction...rather than rely on the robotics that makes the plant more profitable.  You know who thinks that is a great idea?  The competition!!!!!!  Oh...and Soylent Green will be offered in a variety of flavors in real life as opposed to the bran tasting stuff of the movie.

So, since this thread is about jobs, jobs, jobs, do you have anything in the GOP ideology that gets jobs?

Status: offline 		No, asolutely not Mezrem.. but what happens to all the workers, when all corps do is cut jobs or outsource. You get 43 million on food stamps
Where is it going to stop, the " fuck you Im all right jack" meme  doesnt work once you have 1/7 of your population who cannot find work that will give them a decent living. WHy are so few not paying taxes?? the poor? because their jobs dont pay them a living wage, the rich cos they have loopholes, not because they DESERVE more money
There may be production, there may be profits but its tooo narrow a view for my taste
