Obama Needs To Stop Fighting for The Unemployed
Edited on Tue Dec-07-10 01:08 AM by rsmith6621

....AND JUST FIGHT FOR JOBS........ Unemployment doesn't provide enough to make a mortgage....a car payment....HELL it barely buys grocery's and a power bill and gas to go job hunting......Get Real Mr President...

1. I think you are right!
I think he should pull a job out of his ass for every American that needs one,
and then we will have 100% employment!

You are a genius! Damn! :wow:

Edited on Tue Dec-07-10 01:57 AM by madrchsod
do you really think the corporations in this country will allow anyone to change the rules of the game? after all if we had jobs we would demand pay increases,better working conditions ,and worse-unionize! why we could pay off our homes,buy things,increase the tax revenue in our cities ,states,and country! hell we could work ourselves out of debt!

do you think they want to see 30 some years of breaking the back of the middle class go to waste?

we know all about those poor folks not eating ,living where ever than can ,and all that stuff but just think of all those corporations if they had to come back to the usa. you know they`d feel so sad leaving all those cheap laborers and child laborers behind.

5. We need both. Fighting for the unemployed is to fight both for unemployment
benefits and fight to produce jobs to get off it. Both are stimulus that trumps tax cuts for the rich with the added benefit that one takes care of the other but during the interim, the economy continues to be stimulated.
