Henry Payne for November 25, 2013

Given the lowest rate of employment in over 30 years (as opposed to the fiction of the unemployment rate), the unmitigated disaster that is Obamacare, our new ineffectiveness in foreign affairs, even with nations supposedly friendly to us, and an administration that seems incapable of coalititon politics on even the simplest of matters I’d say the damage has been considerable.

There is another rate called the employment rate. This measures the percentage of the population that is employed rather than the false measure of what portion of workers are actively looking for work..http://www.infowars.com/the-employment-rate-in-the-united-states-is-lower-than-it-was-during-the-last-recession/.The employment rate is at its lowest point since the 60’s. It is a far better measure of employment and unemployment than the fiction the BLS puts out.

As it should be.

^Similarly you couldn’t trust Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, and Ted Roosevelt. I’ve always said you can’t trust anyone who has not run a business and has their face on a mountain. But you can trust George Bush who ran an oil company and a ML baseball team and Cheney who ran an oil services company.

dear gypsy8 Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, and Ted Roosevelt. all ran businesses

Hundreds of thousands died to prove Rumsfeld, Cheney, “W” et al, were liars, and stupid. Trillions of dollars are being, and will continue to be, flushed down the toilet as well. It’s time we used some diplomacy. Don’t forget, we still have massive military superiority. (As a proven point of fact, it’s likely that poor tiny Israel also does!)

so gypsy8 if you are earning a living working but interested in gov affairs that makes you a “career politician” [lincoln was in office just 10yr total before becoming president]
