He knew that the economy was not growing and the recovery was not happening, if he has pulled the military out of Iraq and Afghanistan sooner the unemployment rate would have gone over 10% nationally.
The jobs of the past and as we once knew them are gone and not coming back.

If we are going to recover in jobs it will require innovation and expansion in new areas of technology, energy, and low cost manufacturing combing automation with human encounter.

You can't find gold in a played out mine. You have to dig a new one.

This is not and never has been the fault of any one person. He knows the buck stops with him but it is also like trying to turn the Queen Mary when the power steering pump is out and a bunch of bitchy whiney political grandstanders, with no fresh ideas of their own are throwing pebbles at you.

He has my respect!

Using CND's played out mine example; Obama has spent billions (trillions?) trying to find gold in an area that was dubious for having gold. I am talking about the entire "green" jobs pressure. Ethanol, electric cars, solar power, etc. are not viable yet but companies were started that will fail just as soon as federal support is taken away. Waste of time, money, and effort. That goes direct back to the man who wants your respect but is unwilling to give it to the American worker and thinker.
Galt I am certain that you have never understood or worked in research and development, or been an explorer or adventurer or did anything to further mankind.

You just don't matter.
Barleycorn is exactly right. And for those who bitch about GE not paying taxes, the 'green energy' bullshit is the biggest part of why they didn't. When the government gets involved in a market, it attempts to pick winners and losers. Ultimately, the taxpayer ends up the loser.
We will find better ways of energy and you have to try now. hhhhmmmm busted pipeline up in Montana, flooded nukes in Japan, fouled up Gulf of Mexico, missing mountains from digging dirty coal in West Virginia.

Jeesus what is it gonna take to get started down the path for the future. All you conservos wanna go back to 1959 and fuck girls in poodle skirts, and play 45's and think it was a great time.

You sure as hell can't see when you ass in the air and your head is in the sand.
Dipper, you've been searching for Utopia for how many years now?
Yes we can!

The world your talking about is years in the future even if we started tomorrow.

DD, "even if we started tomorrow"? We already started over 2 years ago thanks to Obama. You're old enough to remember when we didn't have smart phones. It wasn't long ago. They do just about everything. Things change quickly when there is a breakthrough.

Investing in research is how we make breakthroughs. We go down 49 wrong paths and one right one. That one right one changes the world.

As far as the troops, would you rather have the opposite problem? I'm happy that most of them are coming home alive. I'm sure that some of them are go-getters and will create success for themselves and those around them.

Thanks to Obama? I think there will be more military overseas at the end of his term than there were when he took office. Still, there is no growth in the economy, the debt gets higher, and unemployment stays near or above 10%. The Patriot Act remains intact, and the TSA gets to grope and peek at will.

Thanks to Obama.

If the soldiers came home and couldn't find jobs, it must be because they are "lazy, drug addict hobos".
