Obama's Fiscal Stimulus Has Saved Jobs

* Lok Sang Ho:says,I agree 100% to what Frankel wrote here, and am amazed how some commentators continue to ignore the many signs of improvement that have occurred. With further improvement in industrial production and exports, employment growth should come back in a matter of months.


any recovery that we have seen has not been a driect result of government intervention at all. it is what would have happened even if the government had never stepped in at all. basically the only thing the government has done is cause a situation where we will all pay for their recless spending.We will pay in many ways. slower growth(if any groth is to truly happen), higher taxes for everyone. less profits for both big and small businesses alike(which will prevent or curtail reinvestment into business growth)meaning fewer jobs over all. The excess money in the system has already caused many nations to slow or end investment in our country,. It has also caused many countries to begin planning the end of the Dollar as a reserve currency. This stimulus has done no service to this country at all.only disservice.

you cannot climb out of a debt induced recession by piling on more debt ,plain and simple.

9 Great Excuses to Be Stubbornly Bullish

Our Government is currently fielding a bill which would tax the wealthy(my guess,anyone making more than $150,000.00 a year) will be taxed(income tax) at a rate of 74% and on top of that a 55% tax on all assets.Now if you tax the wealthy to death, you kill any future plans for business investment,thereby,kil... future employment.Now tell me how this country is expected to soar.

9 Great Excuses to Be Stubbornly Bullish

* Stone Fox C...:Says::: good article. People still don't get leading for lagging indicators. Its been very clear for months now based on leading indicators that the economy is about to soar, but its also been bullish that so many people are bearish.
I say, your nuts! Soar?? how do you back this statement up? with what? this economy cannot soar (as you put it) until we can convince other countries to begin investing in our securities again,and our Government is doing Everything In Its Power to destroy that.
They recently passed a new legislation(which is to allow collection of hidden assets in other countries)For Tax purposes.However, this new law makes America look like a modern Day Racketeer(Gangster)..O... countries are calling for every country to pull out All Assets(both in government securities as well as in Stocks,bonds and any other investment).This along with the criminal amounts of money they have been printing will make investing in new and in growing current businesses nearly impossible.

Americans Relocating for Jobs: That's a Good Sign

Moving to where the work is is a survival skill we all use no matter where we live . Thats just part of life. This story has no bearing on anything that will help people .

Americans Relocating for Jobs: That's a Good Sign

""That mobility has set us apart for the better from most other industrialized nations.""

what are you nuts? Like other nations don't move to where the work is. How do you suppose we ended up with so many Mexicans in this country? They just magically appeared? They moved, to where the work was. And in the Philippines, they move to any Country where they can find work. Its not just Americans who move? Where did you get that ridiculous notion?

China, Energy and Banks: Obama Courting Disaster

# Cetin Hakimoglu says china will continue to buy our bonds. What? have you had your head in the sand lately? China is calling for other nations to create a new world money . one that all countries can depend on. faith in the us dollars is sinking and they want out before it collapses completely. other nations are considering what other currency could actually take the place of the dollar.
this is what many have warned about(while many others have steadfastly refused to believe) . now that its beginning to come true, you will see in a few years,how a once Great Country Can Crumble.Its still not too late to fix,but it certainly cannot be fixed by spending recklessly like our country is doing right now.we have to cut the deficit or other countries will lose all faith in the dollar and its then sunk.

Talk of Recession is Just Talk

true inflation is running well above 7 % this year, and i'd bet its more like 8 % .and as far as unemployment claims are concerned, how about those who have been off work for such a long time how that they just gave up and got dropped from the unemployment rolls, thats another factor that will skew the results huh?unemployment down? in a pig's eye you numb nut.
when you see 20 places closing a day(businesses ) due to the economy,i'd say yeah thats recession .and its predicted that hundreds of malls will be mostly empty during the next 12 to 24 months . but no thats not due to any recession is it Sullivan???
what a Moron this guy is .

Talk of Recession is Just Talk

this guy talks about (The Labor Department reported that initial claims for jobless benefits fell 9,000 last week but remained at elevated levels.) well lets talk about that for just a second. you see , those numbers are skewed. when they talk about a drop in unemployment claims , this is because man of those who were recently on unemployment have exhausted those benefits so they get dropped from the list(bam a false claim there ) since these people are still unemployed. second, he talks about (Inflation, (consumer prices) was revised down to a 3.9% annual rate in the quarter from 4.1% previously reported.). again, lets talk about this. in my lifetime alone, i think the government has changed the way they report inflation at least 3 or 4 times. why would they make those changes? and so many times? well of course , its because they don't want you and i to know the true inflation rate. our government is prone to lying to us every chance they get, which is just about daily.
so are we in a recession? i would say when you hear about this company laid off 300 people today, and tomorrow another company says they laid off or will be laying off 1600 employees and a few days later, the same thing from another employer, you have a pretty good clue your in a recession.
when food costs and rent and home mortgage payments and gas and electric are all going up at double our earnings on a year to year basis, i would say you have a more than good chance we are in a recession.
when your next door neighbor is laid off and then your sister and cousin are laid off in the same week, you can pretty well bet , we're in a recession.
When more than 50 % of people say i won't be going on vacation this year cause i can't afford the plane ticket or they arn't sure they will have their job when they come back so they stay home instead,to save money. its a pretty good bet your in a recession.
When many of us are sticking with the same old cloths to save a few bucks instead of buying that new pair of pants we know we really need this year, or when you see people wearing shoes, that are literally falling off their feet, cause they can't afford to spend the extra cash right now, for new shoes, i'd say yeah , we're in a recession. Get off your A_s and get out into the real world Sullivan, see for your self what a real recession is all about before you go writing your nonsense blog.
