But there are jobs for everyone.

They say they create tons of jobs (No government creates jobs unless it is gov jobs)

The reason why they want burger king to go to 15.00 an hour is so they can claim they created all living wage jobs.

Burger King is going with kiosk stations to eliminate those jobs.

Anyone who depends on the government to create jobs to pay for their blowjobs deserves what they get...a dry heave. Are you shitting me????? The gov. needs to create jobs???? Yeah...so, does the line form at the White House? Congress?

Did the government create Apple, Microsoft, eBay, Amazon, law firms, farms, pro sports teams, hotels, restaurants, media...?? Maybe they created Fox News...lol.

Your reaction is precisely why the GOP is disintegrating.

Naturally, if there's any good news under Obama's presidency, the GOP will find a way to downplay it. All right then, it's a crock full of shit, okay? Originally Posted by SassySue

This is the slowest "recovery" since 1949. More people are out of than ever before. Many of the employed are underemployed. Middle class wages are stagnant or dropping. The jobs created are primarily service jobs.

This is not a healthy economy, not by any stretch of the imagination. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

Amazing.

Just like the "pork ship" I mentioned in my other thread. Totally unnecessary. It's not even a solidly constructed vessel. They just want the money! I am not saying that Democrats are not involved in some of the same thing, but I think they are much more concerned with helping the whole of society than the GOP.

A lot of people shop online because it's cheaper. I, myself, shop on Ebay and Amazon, especially for makeup and household items. They always want to blame it on higher wages, but the fact is people just have less money to spend. That's why their profits are going down, down, down. Think about it. Even if wages are higher, if profits are higher, it evens out. See this article:

Are you so stupid as to not realize that a nationally mandated wage increase will impact ALL stores and not just Walmart? ALL stores -- including Walmart's competitors -- will be required to raise their prices; so, Walmart will still be competitive when it raises its prices to offset the increase in cost for labor: just as their competitors do. And you live in a fantasy la-la world if you for one moment believe that 100% of the increased cost in labor because of a mandated minimum wage increase won't be passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices. And as a reminder, the wage earners are also the consumers.

Sassy hasn't engaged in name calling, flame throwing or all of the other childish shit you do in every fucking post you author, IBOla. Yet you make it personal. Every time.

You apparently don't do anything nice and easy. You only attack.

No wonder you were the first and only true DIPSHIT OF THE YEAR and winner of the Golden Lips Award.

Not that there hasn't been sluntism in this forum, but I'll tip the hat to Sassy for keeping it straight forward.

Apparently she never had you as a client...
