In response to:
John, I respect you, I love your column, but honey....you just have to stop with the logic and reason. The whole notion of jobs putting food on the table is so passe, that's last century's economy. We are the ones we've been waiting for and that means broke, destitute, without hope, and leveled with the undeveloped, perennially autoritarian governed world. How can Obama possibly destroy capitalism and impose a steady state economy (ooops I mean transform us into)on the U.S. if businesses insist on making money, providing jobs, and offering goods and service? You really need to stop being such a troglodyte and figure out which archipelago your enforced labor could most benefit.
I wish Obama and the Democrats could be as passionate about jobs as they are about, say, the contents of Happy Meals. Or the dust from cement factories. Or the habitat of the red-cockaded woodpecker.
While the wizard of DC remains a master of illusion and delusion, focusing everyone’s attention on the man behind the curtain- and his 20 Little Martyrs- the jobless recovery now enters its fifth year with no signs that hiring will be picking up soon.
So instead of worrying about the peckers, I wonder about the 12 million martyrs who remain unemployed. And the 3.6...
Making Money-
Forced Labor-
Archipelago-
Thread them up like popcorn for the poor folks Christmas tree decoration, or any other way you wish; to me it conjures up the image of Nancy Pelosi blocking the implementation of a Minimum Wage increase for American Samoa in order to protect the profits of she and her husband who are the major employers there!
Now, restoreliberty, is that a good fit?
