hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ it's sunday & very quiet.
i have several problems with this...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/17/obama-administration-pledges-half-billion-dollars-to-states-for-transportation/
1...it's a political move
2...the majority (if not all) of the money will go to unionized labor for the work
3...obama went the same route with his stimulus
4...it didn't work the first time
&, i have several problems with this...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/18/obama-renews-push-for-proposals-to-halt-teacher-layoffs/
1...it's a political move
2...states/city's have to work out their own problems
3...obama went the same route with his stimulus
4...it didn't work the first time
perhaps it's good that obama has revealed what he wants to do about the above two problems because it shows that he did not learn a single thing from the failure of his stimulus. it also is proof that it did not work the first time. obama bailed the states/city's out with his stimulus &, here it is, 3 1/2 plus year later &, he wants to do bail them out again....when he bailed out gm & chrysler, at least he forced them to make management changes (which gm has not learned from) (&, in chrysler's case, forced a change to foreign ownership)---just giving the states more money just delays what they have to do to get their own houses in order.
i been saying this from day one, the states/city's all have to rework the public union worker's contracts, cut spending, downsize gov't, increase private sector hiring, be more attentive to the actual needs of their residents &, stop awarding the work contracts to their 'buddy's.
&, obamas vision for our future is four more years of the same---do you deserve that?
