I said nothing about Bush, or Obama. No wonder you go so far off topic. You can't read. I was actually there to see first hand where manufacturing was heading. I was working hard when you were figuring out what hard work is. That was long before Obama.

But you already know that! :D

Last I heard, Obamas been the president the last 6 years... if anything have gotten worse the last 6 years its his fault.

If someone hasn't found a job the last 6 years...they need to stop applying to be CEO of a company until they have had some experience past washing dishes in a restaurant.

Besides..haven't you been listening to the White House Propaganda...there isn't a recession and the economy is doing great.

I have thrived greatly the last 12 years. So has my family. Sorry you haven't. You only have yourself to blame. Work harder, stop blaming others.

Talk to anyone in business anywhere... I don't know ANY that's saying things have gotten beter in the last 6 years. And I do know quite a few that USED to consider themselves Democrats... but Obama has cured them of that affliction.

They are probably lazy idiots that expect to be give money without working for it. Stop talking to those kinds of people and being mislead. If they were hard workers they wouldn't have time to blame anyone else for what they don't have.

They would be too busy working and not b1tching about how bad things are. That's how you thrive and survive no matter who the freakin' president is. Write that down for future reference. Remember who told you so.

Yeah... like most Democrats tend to be... can't buy condoms... expect them for free... expect food stamps... expect to live tax free, expect free health care.

Incidentally... Self employed business people don't qualify for unemployment... if they get run out of business by some anti-business regulation Obama pushes... they don't get to collect a dime. Muich less spend 2+ years collecting while they pop beers and watch soap operas instead of looking for work.

The unemployed, self employed are also completely ignored by the administration and the so-called unemployment numbers propaganda they wave around after being doctored so much they become worthless.

smoothy 200000 people last month had a job they didn't have the month before, not a huge number but an improvement

We have almost three times that many people coming of age every month. Which means 2/3 of them that recently became adults can't find jobs much less the older people that lost theirs, so things are not even close to the break even point. Plus most of those jobs are part time of low wage jobs, or worse, seasonal jobs.

I think we have to resign ourselves to the fact that full time or long term employment and certainly lifelong employment maybe a thing of the past
