GOP jobs agenda

[RKMBrown]

"Prepare to be dazzled"? What the hell is going on in the world of low information lefties. They seem like they are shell-shocked from the last election and they are lashing out with craziness.

They are all morons. But they have been given their marching orders to piss on everyone and burn this country down.

We love the spending reductions. Kansas has to many state workers sucking on the teat of it's private sector as it is.

Ask duddypeepee how many kansas cities have gone bankrupt. lol.

I did.

It shut his ass up real fast.

Really? lol

Because ONLY BK cities are the judgement of health of a state? Kansas ranks at the bottom of job growth, although they invoked the GOP 'supply side' policy. Go figure!!!

Seriously kansas is your example? Wbat the.**** comes from kansas in the past 200 years except Dorthy, toto and,corn to kentucky forwhisky , you love to over look The leftest great new citiys correct?

He's sucking his own dick.

Kansas is doing fine.

I live here.

This is bullshit.

Bankrupt cities don't mean anything lol.

Doing fine? Weird I thought Kansas/Brownback was going to show how tax cuts for the rich and Corps would boom the economy? lol

I guess AFTER they increase deficits and gut spending on education?

Bankrupt cities? Sure, they generally are hit hard by policies conservatives push, like supply side and 'free trade' that decimates US cities like Detroit!

Libturds have labelled every single tax cut that has ever been passed as a "tax cut for the rich." That's partly because the only kind of tax that's ever been cut is the income tax. All other taxes are cast in stone. Have you ever heard of government cutting the sales tax? The property tax?

Yeah, because cutting taxes for the 'job creators' works so well to stimulate an economy right? lol

Let's look at it this way... IF Obama got his proposed budget passed soon after it was crafted, we would not have seen the resurgence in America's oil and natural gas industries - both of which went on a tear, drilling and hiring by the tens of thousands.

Why not, you may ask?

The GOP "jobs agenda" is getting the ******* Democrats out of the way of American enterprise, and letting private capital do what it does best - invest in brick, mortar, nails, and steel. NOT Wall Street.

You said: The GOP "jobs agenda" is getting the ******* Democrats out of the way of American enterprise, and letting private capital do what it does best - invest in brick, mortar, nails, and steel. NOT Wall Street.

Republicans held both houses and the presidency under Bush for nearly 6 years. They used reconciliation 3 times to make sure their agenda was passed and in place.

What was the result of their policies?

According to you, we're still feeling the "result of their policies".

You said: According to you, we're still feeling the "result of their policies".

Millions of jobs moved to China from 2001 to 2008. Over 40,000 factories closed. I would say we are still feeling the result of their policies, wouldn't you?

The Plight of American Manufacturing

Since 2001, the U.S. has lost 42,400 factories --
and its technical edge.

Without a printed circuit board (PCB) industry, for instance, a country cannot expect to have an industrial foundation for high-tech innovation. But the domestic PCB industry shrunk from $11 billion in 2000 to $4 billion in 2008, a period during which the industry was growing globally. U.S. PCB manufacturers accounted for only 8 percent of global production in 2008, down from 26 percent in 2000. China's share of the global PCB market in 2008 was 31.4 percent or $16 billion, four times larger than the U.S. industry. Asia now controls 84 percent of the global production of printed circuit boards, which are used in tens of thousands of different products.

With the Internet and reliable and proven statistics available, Republicans still manage to stay the most ignorant and uneducated people on earth. You gotta give them props for their consistency.

Either the Reps get busy and actually start doing something for the citizens or they become irrelevent in 2016. No more "Impeach Obama". No more "Rescend Obamacare". No more "Bengazis". A jobs and economic bill should not be just for that poor Multi Millionaire that can't quite seem to make billionaire status without congresses help.

ALSO from the article
December 21, 2009

Has U.S. manufacturing declined because its companies are not competitive? Hardly. American companies are among the most efficient in the world. The nation's steel industry, for instance, produces 1 ton of steel using two man-hours. A comparable ton of steel in China is produced with 12 man-hours, and Chinese companies produce three times the amount of carbon emissions per ton of steel. The same kinds of comparisons are true for other industries.

But American companies have difficulty competing against foreign countries that undervalue their currencies, pay health care for their workers; provide subsidies for energy, land, buildings, and equipment; grant tax holidays and rebates and provide zero-interest financing; pay their workers poverty wages that would be illegal in the United States, and don't enforce safety or environmental regulations.

The Plight of American Manufacturing

Between 2000 and 2010, the United States lost 5.7 million manufacturing jobs.

America's New Manufacturing Boomtowns

Conventional wisdom for a generation has been that manufacturing in America is dying. Yet over the past five years, the country has experienced something of an industrial renaissance. We may be far from replacing the 3 million industrial jobs lost in the recession, but the economy has added over 330,000 industrial jobs since 2010, with output growing at the fastest pace since the 1990s.

Proponents of free trade (ISN'T THAT CONSERVATIVES???)and outsourcing argue that the United States remains the largest manufacturing economy in the world. Yet, total manufacturing gross domestic product in 2008 (at $1.64 trillion) represented 11.5 percent of U.S. economic output, down from 17 percent in 1999, and 28 percent in 1959

...That American technological supremacy has declined alongside its manufacturing supremacy should come as no surprise. "The proximity of research, development, and manufacturing is very important to leading-edge manufacturers," a report from President George W. Bush's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology warned in 2004. The continuing shift of manufacturing to lower-cost regions and especially to China is beginning to pull high-end design and R&D capabilities out of the United States. (Not surprisingly, the Bush White House did not publicize this report.) The report recommended that the U.S. make its research and development tax credit permanent. It has not. Once the world's most generous, the U.S. research and development tax credit is now lower than those of 17 other nations.

What progressives with no business or economics experience can't seem to grasp is what the effect is when lawmakers even PROPOSE something like Cap & Trade legislation! All those people doing those cost analysis studies become paralyzed with uncertainty because they don't know what their costs are going to be two years down the road. They can't advise management to go ahead with expansion plans because they don't know what the playing field is going to look like in the future.

Cap and trade? That thing that was originally from the GOP?

Yeah, Business's ALWAYS have certainty in the lives, nothing ever surprises them. Their costs for insurance, labor, electrical, etc are always the same and never increases, lol

(Re-)Introducing: The American School of Economics

When the United States became independent from Britain it also rebelled against the British System of economics, characterized by Adam Smith, in favor of the American School based on protectionism and infrastructure and prospered under this system for almost 200 years to become the wealthiest nation in the world. Unrestrained free trade resurfaced in the early 1900s culminating in the Great Depression and again in the 1970s culminating in the current Economic Meltdown.

Closely related to mercantilism, it can be seen as contrary to classical economics. It consisted of these three core policies:

1. protecting industry through selective high tariffs (especially 1861–1932) and through subsidies (especially 1932–70)
2. government investments in infrastructure creating targeted internal improvements (especially in transportation)
3. a national bank with policies that promote the growth of productive enterprises rather than speculation.
   
   

Frank Bourgin's 1989 study of the Constitutional Convention shows that direct government involvement in the economy was intended by the Founders


The goal, most forcefully articulated by Hamilton, was to ensure that dearly won political independence was not lost by being economically and financially dependent on the powers and princes of Europe. The creation of a strong central government able to promote science, invention, industry and commerce, was seen as an essential means of promoting the general welfare and making the economy of the United States strong enough for them to determine their own destiny.

"The greatest evils in our industrial system to-day are those which rise from the abuses of aggregated wealth; and our great problem is to overcome these evils and cut out these abuses. No one man can deal with this matter. It is the affair of the people as a whole. When aggregated wealth demands what is unfair, its immense power can be met only by the still greater power of the people as a whole, exerted in the only way it can be exerted, through the Government;..."

You said: The GOP "jobs agenda" is getting the ******* Democrats out of the way of American enterprise, and letting private capital do what it does best - invest in brick, mortar, nails, and steel. NOT Wall Street.

Republicans held both houses and the presidency under Bush for nearly 6 years. They used reconciliation 3 times to make sure their agenda was passed and in place.

What was the result of their policies?

According to you, we're still feeling the "result of their policies".

You said: According to you, we're still feeling the "result of their policies".

Millions of jobs moved to China from 2001 to 2008. Over 40,000 factories closed. I would say we are still feeling the result of their policies, wouldn't you?

The Plight of American Manufacturing

Since 2001, the U.S. has lost 42,400 factories --
and its technical edge.

Without a printed circuit board (PCB) industry, for instance, a country cannot expect to have an industrial foundation for high-tech innovation. But the domestic PCB industry shrunk from $11 billion in 2000 to $4 billion in 2008, a period during which the industry was growing globally. U.S. PCB manufacturers accounted for only 8 percent of global production in 2008, down from 26 percent in 2000. China's share of the global PCB market in 2008 was 31.4 percent or $16 billion, four times larger than the U.S. industry. Asia now controls 84 percent of the global production of printed circuit boards, which are used in tens of thousands of different products.

With the Internet and reliable and proven statistics available, Republicans still manage to stay the most ignorant and uneducated people on earth. You gotta give them props for their consistency.

So what's to stop you from starting a company and bringing back those jobs ?

Hmmmmm......... My guess is that you can't make it work paying a minimum wage.

Could it be that China pays less than U.S. minimum wage yet still manages to produce goods for export?

Conservatives will not be happy until the US looks like a 3rd world nation, AGAIN, like they were before PROGRESSIVE policies created the worlds largest middle class!

Look out Mexico, the US is racing to beat you to the bottom on the wage/living standards, IF conservatives get their way!!

Obama has already had his way with America.

His resume...

"Unhappy events abroad have retaught us two simple truths about the liberty of a democratic people.

The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group or by any other controlling private power.

The second truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if its business system does not provide employment and produce and distribute goods in such a way as to sustain an acceptable standard of living. Both lessons hit home. Among us today a concentration of private power without equal in history is growing."

- FDR - Simple Truths message to Congress (April 29, 1938).

Barack Obama bests Bill Clinton's private sector job creation record

July 3, 2014

June marks 52 straight months of private sector job growth, the longest ever on record, beating out Bill Clinton's record of 51 continuous months of private sector job growth from February 1996 to April 2000. The economy has added more than 200,000 jobs for five months in a row now, the longest such streak since 1999. In the first half of this year alone the economy has added 1.4 million jobs, another accomplishment not seen since 1999.
