Snapshot from my iPhone of the Stock Market over the last two years.



You've got the investment, where are the fucking jobs?

[Ian David]

1. Oh, we know where the jobs are...

[vaberella]

10. Now the question is... are Americans willing to work for a few cents an hour and long hours.

No healthcare and so on and so forth?

[rhett o rick]

2. Duh! Turn the graph upside down to see the jobs. nm

[JoePhilly]

5. You are wrong.

3. Not to worry,

that wealth will be trickling down to us eventually.

[JoePhilly]

4. Compare with this .... then get back to us ....

Take your stock market chart, but start it BACK to Dec 2007 (which is when the recession started), and then notice how similar the trend lines in these graphs actually are.

7. Except that many of these jobs are at very low wages. Like GM workers and Boeing workers

hiring one for minimal pay. Looks good on the jobs graph but not good on the average wage graph.

8. The problem with the 'bikini graph' is that it is untying... unraveling.

Job increases have been flat for the last year of that chart.

Corporate America and the rich are richer than they ever have been in history.

The Dow Jones has doubled in two years. Where are the fucking jobs?

9. You think the Republicans are going to allow complete success here?

Have you been paying attention to their monkey wrenches?

[Exilednight]

11. There's a difference between creating jobs and creating

decent paying jobs. When the jobs that are being created are at or just above the poverty line, then you're not doing that great of a job.
