If the same amount of people of the employment pool of Jan 09 was used today, the unemployment rate would be 11.4% today.
Millions of people have been dropped and no longer counted. This how with no jobs created, the rate remains at 9.1%
Millions more will be dropped in the next 15 months and a miraculous event will occur. We will see the unemployment rate at 7% [but 17 million people will still be unemployed]
Obama's main problem is he was nurtured in the belief that government spending will fix it all. He did his part he thinks firing off the stimulous and thought all would be well. Reality reared its head. Now he blames everybody else because he thinks he did his part and nobody else did. Now his big "plan" appears to be the same plan that didn't work the first time around. Infrastructure bank to pour more billions out and it will get the same result. Obamacare has killed the economy. Nobody will dare bring that up to him though because national healthcare is the baby of all the left handed commies.
Now Bush tried the same thing after 9-11. He poured money at the economy and it didn't work. What did he do? He realized it didn't work and imposed tax cuts which stimulated the economy. I guess looking at even recent history is not in the "plan" of these fools running the big house.
I am amazed at the damage this man has done in three years to this country. I thought it would be bad but this is beyond the call of duty for a lefty. He should be run out of the country. Of course now that the governemnt is coddling illegals he should be safe.
Every time Obama opens his mouth about the economy, conservatives say, "Why doesn't he shut the hell up?"
When he doesn't comment, he gets ripped.
There just isn't any pleasing some people.
No they want him to shut the hell up because he talks yet says nothing, not a thing. He talks the talk, but surely he cannot walk the walk, and has proved that consistently. People have lost all hope, Change, your dang right they are looking in their pockets for any lose Change they can find, which these days is hard to do.
9.1% unemployment didn't he say that he was going to keep unemployment at a certain level, he failed miserably.
He has no idea of how to fix this failing economy which is quite eminent.

Hmmmm.... maybe if the president could point to some positive results?
