Thanks to the GOP, we now have 8.7 new low paying low quality jobs

Economy has recovered 8.7 million jobs lost in Great Recession

Reporting from Washington—
The nation's employers created a solid number of jobs last month that pushed the economy to a milestone: It finally recovered all 8.7 million jobs lost during the Great Recession.

In addition, as government reports show, all jobs aren't equal.

Low-paying positions at restaurants, hotels and temp agencies now account for a greater percentage of the workforce than those in higher-paying fields such as construction, manufacturing and banking.

The increased number of lower-paying jobs is a key reason the recovery has been so slow: With less in their wallets, workers have less money to spend, economists pointed out. Consumer spending accounts for about 70% of the economy.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since Republicans don't want to build up American infrastructure and don't want to help average Americans, then all we will end up with is low paying jobs with no benefits.

And they will blame that on Obama. Remember, these people believe in trickle down but the economic bedrock of "Supply and Demand" in their minds is stupid.

You know it takes engineers and scientists to extract natural gas and oil from bedrock. That leaves out Republicans. They will do the "grunt work". The part that's "unskilled". Ignorant people don't just "come up" with this technology. No ignorant right winger is going to know how to drill 6 times the height of the Empire State Building and then drill sideways. Or even know where to drill.

Scientists leave GOP due to attitudes toward science | The Salt Lake Tribune

Scientists used to be well represented among the nearly half of Americans who voted Republican. But that’s changed over the years, and one poll found that just 6 percent of scientists call themselves part of the GOP now.

Barry Bickmore, a professor of geology at Brigham Young University and onetime Republican convention delegate in crimson-red Utah County in the nation’s reddest state, has pondered the issue at length. He contends his party is increasingly ruled by zealots and a demand for "ideological purity" that turns off scientists.

He points to the 6 percent statistic from a 2009 Pew poll, and wondered aloud if any other voting group offered lower GOP support.

(There was, it turns out. Just 3 percent of black women voters gave their support to GOP candidate Mitt Romney in the last election, and the percentage of all blacks voting for him was double that.)

Republicans say we should do this or that, but all of it takes engineers, scientists, and other people right wingers despise.

If the GOP went into the dustbin of history like you idiotic lefties claim it will, who would you blame for your failures?

LOL. This coming from someone who literally "hates" the large corporations who came up with the technology in the first place. You know ... all of those Capitalists.

Yeah,
Thanks to the Affordable Health Care Act, which now has defined a 30 hr. work week.

If it wasn't for stupidity rdean would have nothing.

 

[Mr. H.]

George P. Mitchell was a Republican. The son of Greek immigrants.
It is Liberals who refuse to believe in the science of oil and gas extraction, and hydraulic fracturing.
They oppose it at every turn, and spread lies and propaganda in efforts to discredit the practice.

rdean is an idiot. That is all.

Nice link. Did you see how supportive he was of science? The amount of money he gave for research? Did you see this from one of my links?
