Two ridiculous statements posted on my Facebook page re: the ongoing market correction

[LuckyTheDog]

"How could you say the Tea Party has had any impact on national ecomonics?"

"Last time I checked, the tea party has no economic impact. Kind of like Rand Paul."


:hurts:

So, these are the talking points now? "The Tea Party has had no effect. Nothing to see here... Move along."

1. I actually laughed out loud at those statements! And now

I'm just shaking my head.

Thanks to the Tea Party, we were almost plunged into a default.

And granted, Rand Paul doesn't have much of an impact (often a lone voice) but the Koch Tea Party? :rofl:

2. All you have to do is check BLS private payroll

employment figures in February March and April we were gaining close to 200,000 jobs per month in May and June it is was only about 1/3 of that
