My wife is a much smarter woman than I am...well, since I am not a woman, I guess I should just say she is much smarter than I am....... and she was earning nearly 140K before she was laid off....and she was working on long island.
My best employee is a woman and she is actually in line to make more than I will this year. I am an s-corp so I take whatever is left over...and I not only gave her a raise this year, but I gave her a bonus in January as a thnk you for her dedication seeing as she was offered an opportunity elsewhwere and she refused to accept it even though it included a sign on bonus....
The one who offered her the job? My very first employee...He left me about 5 years ago with not only my blessing, but with my assistance to get him up and running....
And now he tired to steal my best employee!
Nah....he called me and diuscussed it with me as he knows I am nearing the end of the line (I am 52)...and I told him he had all the right to offer it to her and let her make her own decision.
So yes, I was being cute. Man or woman...does not matter....we are all equal.
The wealthier are not inherently getting wealthier and the poorer are not inherently getting poorer.. but nice try
Are you insane or just so blindly partisan that you are no longer paying attention?
How is looking at reality partisan or insane?
Give a man to fish he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime.
Kinda hard when you guys want to take away his pole and then drain the lake to install a Wal-Mart parking lot.
You're easy.
No it didn't.Really?
Reagan's plan created 20 million jobs.
The last time I challenged a CON$ervative who posted that crap they included Reagan's 8 years, Bush I's 4 years and the first year of Clinton's first term, 13 years total, to get to 20 million jobs. Even using that "Fuzzy Math," Clinton created more jobs in his remaining 7 years than St Ronnie's "13" years.
what policies of clinton's do you credit for the creation of all those jobs?
how many of those policies has obama duplicated?
i've asked this a bunch of times and can never get an answer.
people like ehtdythic love to credit CLINTON for creating millions of jobs, and blame bush for not doing the same.
WHAT THE FUCK, EXACTLY, DID CLINTON DO TO CREATE THOSE JOBS? why does he deserve so much credit?
Exactly who is saying we want to take away someones right to to for themselves?
Most people rely on a job to survive. Working that job IS fending for themselves. No one wants to be on the dole... Those jobs are disappearing and what jobs that are left pay so little that survival is becoming next to impossible. I'm sorry that you don't see it as a serious economic problem for this country, but I do. Don't you think if everyone prospers, so do your precious uber wealthy?
First off, the credibility of a source called "Economic Populist" is suspect.
But even if true, that is not a net number. How many jobs were created by the increased efficiency created by moving jobs to more-efficient China?
There was zero job creation in the end when Bush's administration was studied. So none.
Increased efficiency? Oh, this ought to be good. Do tell, what "increased efficiency". And I work in import/export so...
I blame the consumer. It was consumer greed that prompted people to try to make money with a fancy re-fi.....be it an adjustable or a baloon....it was greed that prompted them to do it.
No it didn't! Reagan's Voodoo economic policies gave us 10.8% UE and the Reagan Recession, at the time the worst recession since the Great Depression. He then abandoned Reaganomics and raised taxes 8 times in 6 years and spent like a Keynesian Democrat and THAT policy created jobs.No it didn't.Really?

Yo...
Reagans POLICY is what created the jobs. Not Reagan.
Get with the program.
Presidents dont create jobs. Policies do.
Don't worry about me, I have a business plan, but it will only be me working it. I am concerned about the downward spiral of the average American worker. Very concerned. Not everyone can run a business - physically or mentally, and not everyone wants or can handle the risk. But let me tell you this, with the cost of living going up and wages declining as they are, do not expect the wage slaves to plod along placidly like cows to slaughter. They will eventually revolt.
And it is indeed wise to start business during downturns... many types of businesses thrive even in the bad times.. many are better in the bad times... that is what your research would find, if you would do such a thing when thinking of opening a business
I am starting a business in two years, but that doesn't mean I don't care about the plight of my fellow American workers. I just can't believe anyone would think taking away unemployment is anywhere close to a good idea. It would be disastrous.
I blame the consumer. It was consumer greed that prompted people to try to make money with a fancy re-fi.....be it an adjustable or a baloon....it was greed that prompted them to do it.
A consumer is what by nature? Someone who consumes. Can a consumer consume something that is not there? No That doesn't exist? Uh uh. Who created these loan products? Why? Who asked them to "get creative" in their qualifications? You can't take what isn't offered, so who then advertised these loan products with complicated resets/string/some just flat out illegal (forged, changed etc) and then gave them to people without explaining how the worked? Why would they do this?
Your answer is mortgage lenders and Wall Street derivatives traders respectively.
So what you're saying is you care, but not enough to actually do something about it. You want to start a business two years from now. Fine. If you cared so much about employing people youd be starting up now and hiring some people.
no it didn't! Reagan's voodoo economic policies gave us 10.8% ue and the reagan recession, at the time the worst recession since the great depression. He then abandoned reaganomics and raised taxes 8 times in 6 years and spent like a keynesian democrat and that policy created jobs.no it didn't.

You ARE aware that the housing debacle/credit crisis began in earnest in 2006 as the first ARM's were starting to reset, right? You ARE aware how much the Iraq war has cost this country... and for no gain whatsoever - we could have done a lot with that money that went down the toilet - and much of that was borrowed money. And you ARE aware that Bush enacted tax cuts that almost exclusively went to the already wealthy. This was supposed to encourage expansion and job creation. It did not - They sat on that money and hid it offshore. You ARE aware that, in addition to China, jobs have disappeared to India, southeast Asia and to Mexico, right? I would not be surprised to hear that 10 million jobs and potential jobs have been lost from this country. You ARE aware that while wages are shrinking, the cost of living continues to go through the roof. This was a bi-partisan report. I for one, have been searching high and low for a number of exactly how many jobs we have lost. Interestingly, there is not one single source that has kept track. I do think that this is on purpose. The private sector does not want us to know that number.
The dot com bust was much akin to the housing bust. An artificially inflated business boom that couldn't hold water when looked at in the light of day, and it was just as dirty. Remember Worldcom? FAR fewer people lost their jobs during the dot com bust. There were not massive layoffs, as most of these companies were internet start-ups. They either disintigrated or were aquired by other companies.

what did clinton do to create millions of jobs?????
He passed a tax bill in 1993, as you well know, that CON$ called the largest tax increase in history. It was actually the second largest, Reagan's was the largest.No it didn't.Really?

I'd go with trickle down anyday.
Why? It's been proven that it doesn't work... twice.
They gambled for a profit and lost.
capitalism is a trickle up process in the first place. for that reason, the expectation that cash will trickle down was silly and never panned out when it was applied.
it is simple: dillute wealth concentrates upwards through consumption of produce from those who own the means to make it.
capitalism. read a book.
Bullshit. I have read a book or two and you have no idea what your talking about.
stubborn as a longhorn!
perhaps you can inform from your reading or otherwise who aggregates more profits quantitatively from the sale of goods? is it the worker who gets $0.50 for every $10 widget they make or is it the owner who gets $.10 from every $10 widget, but takes his dime from every widget out the door?
is it the wealthy alone who hold the $10 to buy the goods in the first place, or is it the middle and lower class shopping at a bargain retailers who really constitute the demand that the owner set up shop to supply? would this system work if it were just the wealthy who had the money?
take the wealth from the owner... all of it... and give him a 60-day line of credit, he would be wealthy again at the end of the month.
in this same vacuum, if you take all of the wealth from the consumers, the whole system will fail, no matter how much money the owner has, or whether you extended the consumers 60 days credit or not.
that's my bullshit. your turn.

So to recap, Reagan's largest tax increase in history created 20 million jobs and Clinton's second largest tax increase created another 20 million jobs.
