An Improving Economy?- Food Banks See Rising Demand

[charwin95]

Seeing the big corporations are taking all the profit and paying workers as little as possible. Well, what do you expect? Do you really think cutting their taxes more is going to change a fucking thing...hahaha. These few dozen corporations are crowing out the field of business.

No one stopping you and all those like you from going and start your own businesses. then YOU all can crow about paying your employees 50 bucks an hour to start. Let us know how it works out for you all. You all seem to know so much about running other people's businesses.

Matthew will probably start his own business when he moves out of his mom's basement.

Go ahead Mathew start your own business. It's a lot easier than what people think. but don't start paying $50/hour.

Most of the jobs are low paying or fewer hours. Both republicans and democrats have allowed industry to leave the US so it can pay pennies for wages and get away from safety regulations

Nope. A lot are high paying jobs. Last 6 months I added total of 229 workers.
Maybe you don't even know or you guys are just being blind. Car makers are selling more cars than ever, there are short inventories of houses, buildings construction is up, home appliances more jobs, employment is low.
Rightwingers can deny it however you want but the evidence is in front of you. Economy is good and it's only getting better.

Here 90% of those hiring are fast food joints and other eateries. This is a fairly large city close to Atlanta....there should be better jobs but there ain't much manufacturing and such anymore.

BTW... How did you come up with 90%?

American Malls In Meltdown - The Economic Recovery Is Complete & Utter Fraud

he government issued their monthly retail sales this past week and four of the biggest department store chains in the country announced their quarterly results. The year over year retail sales increase of 2.4% is pitifully low in an economy that is supposedly in its sixth year of economic growth with a reported unemployment rate of only 5.3%. If all of these jobs have been created, why aren’t retail sales booming?

The year to date numbers are even worse than the year over year numbers. With consumer spending accounting for 70% of our GDP and real inflation running north of 5%, it’s pretty clear most Americans are experiencing a recession, despite the propaganda data circulated by the government and Fed.

Macy's, Kohls, Sears, and J.C. Penney have been dying for decades. They're not a good barometer.

Interesting dynamic going on. Improving economy yet the hands that are held out are increasing

Recovery Watch - American Food Banks Struggle To Keep Up Amidst "Surprising" Demand

Food banks across the country are seeing a rising demand for free groceries despite the growing economy, leading some charities to reduce the amount of food they offer each family.

U.S. food banks are expected to give away about 4 billion pounds of food this year, more than double the amount provided a decade ago, according to Feeding America, the nation’s primary food bank network. The group gave away 3.8 billion in 2013.

While reliance on food banks exploded when the economy tanked in 2008, groups said demand continues to rise year after year, leaving them scrambling to find more food.


Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, executive director of the Ohio Association of Food Banks, who has been working in food charities since the 1980s, said that when earlier economic downturns ended, food demand declined, but not this time.


From the AP article: Food Banks Struggle to Meet Surprising Demand

It is doing fine for the top 10% that engineered the election of this clean, articulate Negro.

For most of those duped into voting for him, not so good.

Wondering why they did not include Mervyns.

We keep getting told that the economy is improving.

Apparently it hasn't improved that much if food banks are going still going broke.
