Reply #61: employers are not hiring because of weak demand, and fear the Repubs will succeed in completely

[JohnWxy]

killing off any recovery. The Republicans by fighting every stimulus bill, unemployment extension bill, even the bill to make loans to small businesses (whom they claim to be so concerned for) is putting serious doubts in all businessmens minds and the minds of donsumers that the Government will provide enough stimulus to bring down unemployment and to help the economy build itself out of this REPUBLICAN DYSTOPIA.

So consumers are holding onto their money, not spending much, and the weak demand doesn't provide businesses a reason to hire more permanent, full-time workers.

So now we're heading for deflation. NOt good, but Republicans are planning on campaigning in November saying "Look how Obama screwed up the response to the recession" Of course, many of the serfs out there won't remember the Great Recession was caused by the Republicans and their religion of Deregulation but what the fuck.

....sometimes I think the way people don't use their heads, you almost can't blame the Republicans for having such towering contempt for us "little guys". We're just bugs to them.
