Extremely funny to see the same people whining about how greedy the big corporations are, are the same ones celebrating how Obama is responsible for the stock market.

Good Obam, bad companies that profit.. Its really odd.

This is what the idolization of wealth gets you. Politicians aren't to blame for the record-low wages being paid from the pool of record-high profits. But keep thinking Obama's the reason the economy is huffing along. Your corporate overlords like it when you stick your heads in the sand like good lil' slogan-reciting peons...

Who do you think enables them?

Obama just appointed a former Citi exec who oversaw the greatest financial debacle in history to Sec of the Treasury!

You think the Corps act alone? No- They have all kinds of help from the lawmakers!

Yes, corporations will hire when they need to hire. I don't see your approach of forcing them to hire people they don't need. I guess this is one of those days you play a leftist, because you played a right winger yesterday

Obama's policies are destroying the country, and the rich are just extracting as much wealth before the ship completely capsizes. It doesn't matter who you blame. The descent to the bottom will be the same irregardless.

And all that money ol helicopter Ben is printing... You know, to help all us lowly middle class or less Americans... It's going right into the pocket's of the rich. This whole crashing the economy thing has worked out beautifully for the rich, no matter whose to blame.

Oh that is funny. As if it is proof that Obama is doing his job. They don't have a clue but they continually embarrass themselves.

I don't think I said that, but I'll tell you we are actually hiring a lot of contractors, and they can be deducted as a business expense.

And of course JP Morgan benefits from EBT welfare cards.

The bill mandates that “all state agencies implement Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) systems by October 1, 2020” for those receiving money through the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program. And which company administers nearly half of all states’ EBT programs? You guessed it: JP Morgan Chase.

JP Morgan

And Liberals think they are fighting the big banks. Its unbelievable they don't know they are the sheep in even more wealth sent to the big banks.
