Oh, God, not yet another government conspiracy. And this one makes even less sense than your usual conspiracy theories (as if that was possible.) What was the last one? Something about the traffic cameras placed at intersections actually being there so that the government could spy on us? In any case, I'm done responding to you and your "theories."

BFD. We need to add about 150,000 jobs/month just to MAINTAIN the UE rate at the same level thanks to a larger work force. You're saying that we need to be excited about creating 20,000 jobs in one month, which is < 1/7 of the amount needed just to maintain the UE rate?

Not all of us are dumb enough to believe Obama's BS. What are you going to say next? That we were losing 750,000 jobs/month when Barry took office? Am I supposed to believe that we were going to lose that many jobs/month forever were it not for the great Barry Soetoro?

If you'd like to explain HOW higher taxes, more regulations, quantitative easing, amnesty and card check benefits the American Economy, I'm all ears.

Anybody trying to draw a line in the sand on the day Barry took office as the day the bottom dropped out is a fool.

The republicans are a 737 heading to Greece and the democrats are the Concord. We are getting to europe either way. Angle or Reid are not creating any jobs. People who believe that government creates meaningful jobs are useful political fodder. It's in the democrats interest to create a nation of paupers but just as much so for the other side creating corporate paupers.

I think when our local and national government quits kicking the can down the street and allows austerity to take place, innovation might occur. We have to cut out welfare, both corporate and personal and other false starts to the economy. There are myriad other issues ranging from taxes, subsidies, illegal immigrants etc but greed at all levels will be our undoing.

There is no corporate or political leadership left. The will of what remains is being stress tested into extinction.

People talk about recovery but I am left to wonder what are we recovering from? The largest growth sector in our nation right now is government. Can somebody tell me how a nation that imports goods on ships and they leave primarily with scrap metal and hay can sustain this? How does a nation recover from multinational corporations exporting and automating jobs? Where is the production going?

Two more Census workers blow the whistle - NYPOST.com

Doesn't surprise me in the least. The fact that the government even goes to that much trouble is futile to begin with. If you haven't seen the movie "Idiocracy", do yourself a favor and watch it. I'm convinced that's where we are headed.

Idiocracy is already reality. Unfortunately, this is your average American below. Our society has already been so dumbed down there is no stopping it.
