All Hail! Our Might King Barry is bringing us out of the Dark Days.

Here is the source of most jobs added since the recession...

And here is what Obama's State Department had to say about "shovel-ready" jobs back in 2009... ironically in reference to the Alberta Clipper Pipeline- a project that mirrors the efforts of the Keystone XL...

Approval of the permit sends a positive economic signal, in a difficult economic period, about the future reliability and availability of a portion of United States’ energy imports, and in the immediate term, this shovel-ready project will provide construction jobs for workers in the United States.

Permit for Alberta Clipper Pipeline Issued

This Administration oozes hypocrisy and is far from transparent...

Capitalists love low wages. Remember, there is no middle class in unregulated free-market capitalism. Just a few at the top, some merchants, and a whole lot of saps living hand to mouth.

[kiwiman127]

Aren't these same type of jobs Rick Perry is touting as the Texas Miracle? (Low paying?)
That's the future of America,,low paying service jobs.
Who exactly created that phenomenon?

You don't get out much, do you. It's the Capitalists in the oil and natural gas industries who are paying top scale for any and all jobs. And in the boom towns, the Capitalist merchants are paying employees upwards of $20/hr for the same work that commands $8.50/ hr. elsewhere.

Get with the program, dunce.

Oooohh.... it's all Bush's fault.. haven't heard that one in what, five minutes?

Stocks do 9 times better with a Democrat in the White House....

While Republicans promote themselves as the friendliest party for Wall Street, stock investors do better when Democrats occupy the White House. From a dollars- and-cents standpoint, it’s not even close.

The BGOV Barometer shows that, over the five decades since John F. Kennedy was inaugurated, $1,000 invested in a hypothetical fund that tracks the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX) only when Democrats are in the White House would have been worth $10,920 at the close of trading yesterday.

That’s more than nine times the dollar return an investor would have realized from following a similar strategy during Republican administrations. A $1,000 stake invested in a fund that followed the S&P 500 under Republican presidents, starting with Richard Nixon, would have grown to $2,087 on the day George W. Bush left office.

It would apply if you were setting up generators in parallel.

Average of 44 dollars an hour in the nat gas industry in south Texas. I have many rig hand friends who are making 100k plus a year.

This raises a second point in the Obama administration's favor: Some of the positions many are now criticizing have existed for years. As The Post reported this week: "By one count, Bush had 36 czar positions filled by 46 people during his eight years as president." Historically, presidents have turned to special advisers.

It's only news if Obama does it.

Conservatives direct capital onto Main Street, not into Wall Street.
