The unemployment rate numbers are so skewed that it’s difficult to know where we stand anymore. With the advent of ObamaCare, many employers have slashed their employee’s hours to keep them under the ‘full time employment’ threshold, yet they’re still counted as “fully employed”. A part time job is not a full time job. Yet, because that’s where the nation is headed, the government “deems” it to be the same thing.
Remember that the President’s state goal is to ‘fundamentally transform America’. He’s a utopian socialist and that’s what he wants it to look like. The economy will remain tepid while he remains in office despite what the ‘job numbers reports’ say. There are regions of America that are booming: Texas (red state and oil) and Washington DC and the five counties that surround it (recipient of unrestrained government growth and fat Senior Executive Service salaries).
The Federal Reserve is printing money with nothing backing it up, which is why the interest rates on savings accounts is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1% and home loans are the lowest ever. You are being appeased and lulled into a false sense of security. There is also a reason why the spot price of gold is $1,642 for Gold (eagles) a bit less for bullion today. It’s because the relative value of the paper in your pocket is decreasing.
Now for a few cartoons h/t WoFat
But on the bright side, the Government is shutting down for 14 days…until they kick that can down the road again.
We warned them it would be like this. Progressive leftists can only learn the hard way. And even then, many times ignore the lesson.
Yeah. Isn't that special?
They'll howl once it's wrecked and will blame Bush.
I'm now convinced that the Proggies are incapable of learning.
But is there enough left of America to put things right? And do we have visionary people who can set the standard – despite the battering they'll take from the media – and rise to the occasion to lead? I don't know. There are some and I have high hopes that Rand Paul, Paul Ryan and Marco Rubio among them.
I've been encouraged by Ryan's budget, which calls for an end to ObamaCare and for Rand Paul's courage. Marco Rubio seems to be a well balanced and reasoned senator.
Like standing with one foot on top of the other, and trying to jump up and down.
Just like that.
I don't think there are enough common sense people left to actually bring the USA back… The smart ones refuse to run for office…
I think that you're right.
