By Lee way

Republicans were geared up, hoping on a bad jobs market report this month in order to give the Romney/Ryan campaign a boost — to spotlight President Obama as a failure. Well, it didn’t work out the way they had hoped. According to the Associated Press, fewer Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week, and a private survey showed businesses stepped up hiring in August. The data sketched a brighter outlook for the job market one day before the government reports on August employment.[/div class="excerpt"]

4. There are 2 reasons rethugs are rooting for job losses

and only one of them is to try to get Rmoney installed in office.

The other reason is that their all-out attempts at sabotaging the economy to make Obama look bad is backfiring.

8. the other reason is, they don't suffer

when one worker has to do the job of 5. They can just pile it on and enjoy the productivity bonus. They. Don't. Care.

Their money stash allows them to hold out though any number of strikes and protests. And just hire scabs.

When we get around to it, we are going to have to fight the entire union workers battle all over again, with all the blood and violence and privation. And we are going to have to do it soon. Unions are down to 7% of workers. We need it back up to 47% like it was in the 50s.
