If you really want to get everyone working then you have to size an economic stimulus package to do the job. And you have to apply the economic stimulus where it is needed.

The real rate is more like 25% at least over 20% The numbers that are released have been adjusted down every month for a long time. And the amount of money spent on unemployment is far higher than the claimed unemployment rate.

He seems more focused on golf and vacations. A warning to Hawaii: Terrible weather always follows the President around.

There will be a few jobs.

Obama wanted to be the "enemy" of business and the result is many will not invest.

Obamacare is stopping many from hiring.

Default How many times is Obama going to say jobs are his main focus?

I'd seriously like to know?

The tax extension is only going to help a very few.

Who is going to take out a 5 year note on an investment and in 2 years they don't know the future? They are not going to take out the 5 year note, to invest in their business, that's what.

You have banks scared to lend as they don't know their futures, with no incentive to invest in anything.

You have illegal aliens doing many jobs I love to do, because they can be abused and it is still better then nothing or going back to where they came from and struggle to make $8 a day.

The jobs the estimated 12 million illegals are here doing, are jobs Americans once did and took enormous pride in doing it.

Then you have all our manufacturing gone. Vanished in the past 10 years, as trade tariffs were dropped completely with 3rd world nations. Free trade is not equal trade. Don't be fooled!!!!


2 years and every speech is... " my main concern is jobs" then he and congress create or shore up government workers, Federal, State and local.


Then you have these pension plans sucking capital from the economy. Creating less monetary investment to work with in the private sector, where our economy is run and driven.

If jobs come back at all, it will not be anything the Democratic controlled congress, senate or the prez did.

The economy rebounded out of the recession, before any of the 800 billion stimulus was spent.

"Jobs" IS his main focus - destroying/preventing them, that is!!!!!!

He is a typical politicain who lies through his teeth to get what he wants. He is not concerned about jobs, at least in the private sector. The Progressive/Communist manifesto doesn't contain jobs and prosperity, it only contains planks that gain them complete control over your lives. Jobs in the private sector are the antithesis to that ideology.
