Unemployment 10.2 % and rising (wages, salary, global warming, health care)

[bentlebee]

In our area it was already over 12% (FL)

Not incl. are people who are out of getting benefits and still have no job and people who just started to look for a job due to not being able to live of their retirement money....and people who half lost wages due to cuts of their working hours....

Should make it easy for these people to pay the health care fine when they find themselves unable to afford the premiums.

Its time Obama stop playing golf, Stop playing basketball, Stop going to fund raisers, Stop flying around the country to get support for Obamacare.

People need to get back to work. He needs to keep his butt in dc in the oval office and figure something out.

[LordBalfor]

Definitely disappointing.
All the more reason to keep rates at zero and the stimulus going.

We'll get there, but clearly there is still pain ahead.

You forgot the trick or treat, the nights out on the town (a town he had to use a plane to get there...) and now even the last nights shooter was stating that he was disappointed in Obama since Obama didn't do what he had promissed...

Our daughters friend lost his job this week and for young people it isn't easy, neither is it for a person who has to feed his whole family of his salary and than is layed off!

With cap & trade taxes will go up and people will have even less money to spend.

Health care is going to cost every family so much more and small business owners are scared to death to hire any one with the thread of having all these hidden fees and taxes raised on them...that isn't creating jobs!

[Mrencouragement]

Yep, the recession is officially over....

Too bad the depression is just beginning...

when will he realize that channeling more money the government is destructive to the economy. (Russia, China, & Cuba have proven this strategy is unsuccessful)

Each household should have gotten $8000 in cash in February , but he decided to give it to burrecrats in DC and call it a stimulus plan.

He is trying to scam up some temporary green jobs to combat global warming. Your tax dollars will fund some companies who will then go bankrupt in a few years when the money stops.
