Democrats Turn ‘Where Are The Jobs?’ Chant On GOP

[Stephanie]

I'm beginning to think Democrats and their follower don't have a lick of COMMEN SENSE.

 

[whitehall]

Are lefties dumb or are they living in an alternate universe? Republicans have been in the majority in congress for less than two months. Where were the jobs when democrats were in the majority for the last four years? Democrats still hold the majority in the senate and of course there is the socialist president who called the venerable Chamber of Commerce a "sinister force" in politics three months ago. Meanwhile democrats including the president are encouraging Wisconsin government workers to riot in order to keep the state in debt.

Please explain how money knows where it came from and dissapears because its source was teh government?



To think that money acts differently in the economy because it came from a certain source is utter insanity

 

[percysunshine]

Well ain't that SPEEEEEECIAL..

The Democrats had TWO FRIGGEN years to chant where are the jobs.

Democrats are so damn predicable and stupid. Like the people are going to be taken in by their dumb little chant.

The election was only 3 MONTHS ago. dumbshits.

The last day of Bush's budget, the unemployment rate was 10.1%. The day Republicans were swept into office, the unemployment rate was 9.2%....

Bushes budget was held over for a year by Congress so Obama could submit his version of it.

You are a hopeless romantic.

They have been in power for a few weeks, government can't create jobs. Anyone who has faith in the same government that fucked up Iraq, couldn't even get fresh water to people stuck at the Superdome during Katrina or can't account for billions spent in Afghanistan ; The US Government Can't Account For Billions Spent In Afghanistan ; being able to create jobs; is in serious need of counseling, government would fuck up a wet dream.

Explain all that to FDR. Oops.

More and more economists are now saying he extended the Great Depression

Republicans say a smaller government eventually will spur private-sector job growth. Many economists challenge that claim, noting that the government helps pays for research, infrastructure, education and other programs that provide both public- and private-sector jobs

Actually no economists say that. Socialist economists claim it's worth it, but no economist says that government spending creates jobs. Sorry.

The economists who believe government spending creates net jobs are to Economics what UN Bureaucrats are to Climate Change Science.

Just sayin'.

He did indeed. And after he died, Truman was worried that the end of WWII would lead to a severe downturn, and pushed Congress for expanding the FDR version of Stimulus/Obamanomics.

Congress said no and cut tax rates instead - leading to a long economic boom.

Roosevelt died before the war ended and before he could implement his New Deal revival. His successor, Harry Truman, in a 16,000 word message on Sept. 6, 1945, urged Congress to enact FDR's ideas as the best way to achieve full employment after the war.

Congress—both chambers with Democratic majorities—responded by just saying "no." No to the whole New Deal revival: no federal program for health care, no full-employment act, only limited federal housing, and no increase in minimum wage or Social Security benefits.

Instead, Congress reduced taxes. Income tax rates were cut across the board. FDR's top marginal rate, 94% on all income over $200,000, was cut to 86.45%. The lowest rate was cut to 19% from 23%, and with a change in the amount of income exempt from taxation an estimated 12 million Americans were eliminated from the tax rolls entirely.

Corporate tax rates were trimmed and FDR's "excess profits" tax was repealed, which meant that top marginal corporate tax rates effectively went to 38% from 90% after 1945.

Georgia Sen. Walter George, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, defended the Revenue Act of 1945 with arguments that today we would call "supply-side economics." If the tax bill "has the effect which it is hoped it will have," George said, "it will so stimulate the expansion of business as to bring in a greater total revenue." ...

LOL, MM has been caught time after time of editing, fibbing, taking things out of context and just OUTRIGHT LYING.
Only a small majority takes anything MM has to say as TRUTH, the rest of the people just laugh at them.
