Michael Collins: Questions for The Money Party -- Why Negative Job Growth for 11 Years?
http://www.opednews.com/articles/Michael-Collins-Questions-by-Michael-Collins-110622-31.html



The Money Party is a very small group of enterprises and individuals who control almost all of the money and power in the United States. They use their money and power to make more money and gain more power. It's not about Republicans versus Democrats. The Money Party is an equal opportunity employer. It has no permanent friends or enemies, just permanent interests. Democrats are as welcome as Republicans to this party. It's all good when you're on the take and the take is legal. Economic Populist

Negative job growth for eleven years is the best evidence concerning our economic troubles. There were 135 million jobs in 2000 for a workforce of 144 million. Today, there are 139 million jobs for a workforce of 154 million. That represents negative job growth when you factor in population growth.

Job growth in this economy hit a dead calm in 2000 and is now moving backwards. If the issue isn't raised, how can we address the phenomena?

What is the Money Party doing about Negative Job Growth?

2. Well, they are blaming the Unions, of course
And those greedy, greedy teachers, firemen and police who "suck at the public teat". As well as social security, medicare and medicaid. Because we all know that those socialists/communists and their programs are what are really holding us back from our glorious, Ayn Randian future!
