All week long the administration has been looking forward to the job-loss numbers, which were posted early this morning. It was only a slight rise, so the spin will go, from 9.7% in August to 9.8% in September.
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE RISES TO 9.8 PERCENT IN SEPTEMBER AS EMPLOYERS CUT 263,000 JOBS
As the White House puffs out its chest and gives us a couple of harumphs for emphasis, the American worker/citizen (is it really a necessary distinction?) will be told that the job loss is a sign that the ecomomic sub-strata is realigning to produce more jobs in the green energy sector, or some other shiboleth they dream up. We will be served the typical Obama pabulum that "good times" are just around the corner. After all, its not 500,000 jobs as it was in May. We've "turned the corner" as it were, veritably staunched the flow of our life force from the body politic. Huzzah!
Oh, thank you, President Obama! I am so relieved. And before this report I thought our country was going to hell in a hand basket. And as Obama trots off to Denmark to give away more American sovereignty to buy, er bring, the Olympics to Chicago, an Afghan woman with a purple stain on her index finger is pointing to the freedom won for her by American lives.
Bull Shit! mr. president! Your stimulus package has not had the positive uptick in the economy precisely because it is government money. Business looks further down the road, further than your feeble Harvard/Yale educated mind can see, to the day when U.S. currency won't even be able to buy the paper it is printed on. When it will take wheel-barrow loads of greenbacks just to buy a loaf of bread. And industry is taking, not giving, mr. president, like the heroin addicted standing in line for free methodone. Taking as much money out of circulation and puting it aside against the day when your socialist agenda will go the way of the dodo bird.
