FAIL! 96,000 jobs created. 125,000 expected.
Explain why American corporations have set record profit growth, and we're still being fucked. Make your argument.
I was 3 years old in 1981 and don't pretend to know everything. Would love to hear your opinion about what you brought up and how that relates to what I said.
It was the brainchild of Jack Kemp and was pushed through by Reagan. it very substantially reduced tax rates across the board and helped stimulate a very strong economic recovery leading to greater tax revenues.
This was not a new idea, by the way: under JFK a democratic administration stimulated the economy in the same way.
So you're in favor of reducing tax rates across the board? What about the whole notion that "47% of Americans don't pay taxes". Wouldn't an across the board tax decrease only increase that number of people "not paying taxes"?

8.1 is better then 8.3 so it is what it is , getting better . Piss & moan all you want facts are
facts .
you really are a complete moron and partisan hack.And the way to make it all better is to put a guy in to the whitehouse who wants to make things more difficult for the poor and middle class while cutting taxes for the rich? That's the plan that makes the most sense to you?
Shouldn't you ask a mod if you can post that?

Yes facts are facts and the fact is the number of people who have given up looking for work increased and they are not counted in the unemployment figures which is why the number went from 8.3 to 8.1 that is one way to get the unemployment number down but not one I would recommend.

The number of discouraged workers is published by the BLS in the same report being cited in this thread, so there is no excuse for you lying about it!The rate drops to 8.1% and the left call it a victory since people have given up all "Hope" to find a job. Let's see how many from the left will be dancing over this great news of the unemployment rate dropping to 8.1%.
Is this a joke or a nightmare?
If its a joke, where's the punch line. If its a nightmare, when will I wake up?

What do you mean you're being fucked? Exactly. Please describe.
We can't compete against China and pay our workers the way they want. WE live in a global economy.

Does "Matthew" or anyone else remember representatives from the Bush Administration ever mentioning the problem of people dropping out of the work force when the job figures came out on their watch?The unemployment rate dropped because people dropped out of the work force. Obama is fucking our country up.

Enough said!
Everyone knows the unemployment numbers will drop dramatically as soon as we increase tax breaks for the rich and cut out safety nets for the poor and middle class. Only idiots can't see this!!

Having one of the highest corporate taxes makes it only worse.
Sadly, you can't expect people trying to get rich to not offshore or to hire American.

Why don't you explain how American corporations are showing record profits, and we still have such a high unemployment rate? I'd really love to hear your economic knowledge.

This isn't about republicans, this is about Obama and his failed time as president of the United States.
Please explain how 368,000 people leaving the workforce in August is the republicans fault.
Please explain how for every one person who finds a job, four people are leaving the workforce because they are too discouraged is the republicans fault
Please explain how 25 M Americans out of work is the republicans fault.
This is purely about Obama. Not Romney/Ryan, but Obama.
Who said this was the republicans fault? My point, which you are clearly missing, is what alternative plan would have fixed this situation faster? A plan that involves further tax breaks for the rich? A plan that cuts out safety nets for the middle class? You may not be happy with the results under Obama, fine. But tell me what the better plan is and how it would decrease the unemployment rate faster.

Yet, Romney's private sector experience shows he'd like to replace middle class with minimum wage earners. It might be good for Romney, but it sucks for America.
Whenever a CON$ervoFascist says something is a "fact" you can be absolutely sure it is not a fact.8.1 is better then 8.3 so it is what it is , getting better . Piss & moan all you want facts are
