Friday morning and the unemployment rate has dropped to 9.5%. Not because things are getting better--we lost jobs this week--but because more and more are giving up and are no longer looking.
Our fearless leader gets on television almost every day outlining some new expensive initiative that won't create jobs but will spend a whole lot more money.
Was watching a commentary early this morning in which they spelled out how much of the stimulus money has been spent so far - something over four billion leaving several hundred billion left to spend, but the president wants a NEW stimulus necessary to create jobs? Is he playing with a full deck?
And of that money that has been spent of the stimulus bill--we aren't even counting TARP or the pork laden appropriations bills or the other stuff they're spending--for every new job created, it has cost us about $700,000.
Do you feel like you're getting your money's worth?
But Pelosi will save us by creating lots and lots and lots of new jobs by extending unemployment. Think how much we could have saved if we had just gone her route and extended unemployment instead of spending more than $800 billion in that stimulus package which obviously wasn't enough according to the President.
Lordy, lordy people. The GOP sucks. But let's hope and pray they retake at least one chamber of Congress in November and derail this train to disaster. Right now I thinki it is our only hope.
