LOL! Evenin' Cookie!

Currently, there are more people working in government than in manufacturing. At this rate, we'll all be working for government.

At this rate, we'll all be working for government.

Who's gonna pay the bills then?

You righties should have thought of that before you fell in love with outsourcing.

But according to reaganomics, where deficits don't matter, the less tax the government gets, the more money it has.

Economics 101: Get the "Gubment" the hell out of the way!

The Chicom's have embraced Capitalism and they are still chugging along at a 7-9% per annum growth rate while the Good'ol U.S of A is being crushed under the weight of the Union Thugs, anti-biz Marxist Politicians and lawyers.

Why the hell do you think most of our manufacturing has left our shores. Just try to build a new manuf plant and see what "red tape, legal nightmare" you have to go through!

Doc-
Right. We should go back a few centuries and follow China's model.

Do you understand how stupid you sound?

Oh yea, you don't dare fuck with the "Snail Darters" or "Green Belly Hornitoads" fragile habitate of you'll have the "Tree Huggin, Berkinstock wearing, Volvo Driving Peacenicks jammin their ACLU Lawyers up your ass till you thrown in the towel and move your "Made in America" plant to some country that will welcome you with open arms.

Hey, Doc, maybe we could decide who gets to move to an urban area, or decide who gets to starve in the countryside. Maybe we should have some tanks rolling down the street in Washington to crush the "Union Thugs". We could sure as hell abolish the minimum wage and get shit made cheaper with a population on the brink of starvation. And what's this about retirement and social security and medicare? Fuck that! We could build a totalitarian regime to crush China's in a very short period of time.

Your patriotism brings tears to my eyes.

That you would even dare to bring China as an example for the US to follow is truly revolting, Doc.

Govt jobs bills are a joke.

Your patriotism brings tears to my eyes.

Just as your "patriotism" brought tears to my eyes when the kind of scum you vote into power passes environmental and labor legislation that makes it an unsustainable prospect to do business in the United States.

Go fuck yourself.

Let's all go fuck ourselves!
Bipartisanship has to start somewhere.

No, Go fuck yourself Jak,

Just because you are a simpleton, doesn't mean that there aren't entrepreneurs out there savy enough to figure out that it is necessary to progress and find better, more efficient ways of conducting business.
Conducting business the same old way is just lazy and dangerous, and is what will truely destroying my daughters future America.

While there are some people who will risk their savings and start a business, manage to hurdle all the roadblocks that gov't put in their way, hire enough lawyers to defend themselves from other blood-sucking bastards, and still, at the end, manage to leave something to their families when they die...

Oh, never mind... the death tax is back... the gob'ment gets that too.

Very good, comrades... carry on.

doesn't mean that there aren't entrepreneurs out there savy enough to figure out that it is necessary to progress and find better, more efficient ways of conducting business.

Sorry, cunt.

You can't really "figure out efficient ways of conducting business" in a climate of punitive labor and environmental regulation.

Now run along and go put up solar panels and weather stripping with employees that are paid a "living wage".

In the mean time, anyone with a modicum of common fucking sense will go produce the things people actually need in another country.

You shit in the bed, you fucking leftist scum.

Don't fucking whine when it starts to stink.

The expression "common sense" is truely too broad to carry any weight now.

I point to this spot and proclaim that "common sense" is dead and Jak killed it.

You righties should have thought of that before you fell in love with outsourcing.

But according to reaganomics, where deficits don't matter, the less tax the government gets, the more money it has.

How sad. He killed something he never got to know.

They still don't get it! The only hope is to vote them out. Voted for increased spending-out. Voted not to cut spending-out. Voted not to cut government-out. Anything short of this will not do. Since none of these will be really done, prepare for the upcoming chaos (Pulvis et umbra sumus).

If you want to see a copy of the bill you have to look in the trashcan. Reid did it again.

what shall we do when 3 out of 5 people start getting a government?i believe it's 2 out of 3 now.

This bill will do little to nothing to help put Americans back to work, thanks to repug obstructionism and dem subservience to the idea of bipartisanship....an idea repugs have not embraced in the past or now.

Despite having zero mandate in 2000, the repugs pushed thru tax breaks for the richest 1%, claiming it would increase jobs. How did that work out for us?

By acquiescing to the "party of NO", the Dems are allowing them to dictate what will not occur in American citizen's best interests.

The repub agenda is simple. Stonewall, obstruct and say NO to any Dem proposals. Then they will sit back and proclaim the Dems have done nothing to help Americans and are failures.

Which, if allowed to continue, will be true. But trying to pretend repugs are not only also failures, but a big reason the dems (and our govt) have failed is ridiculous.

GOP=party politics OVER citizens and country

and if dems continue to allow it, they are no better, despite their claims to the contrary.

Harry Reid shows his Balls

(Cookfish gasps and feints!)

Reid Tosses Bloated Bipartisan Jobs Bill For Something Leaner

The Senate's bipartisan jobs package, which had robust support from the White House and the GOP, but was packed with corporate giveaways, lasted less than a day.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) emerged from a Democratic Caucus meeting Thursday afternoon to announce that he had decided to scrap it, in exchange for a much-simplified package.

The new bill drops disaster assistance and extensions of unemployment insurance and COBRA helath-insurance subsidies, all Democratic priorities which will need to be addressed before they expire within the next few weeks.

But Reid also ditched one of K Street's highest priorities, an extension of soon-to-expire tax breaks that are highly beneficial to major corporations, known as tax extenders, as well as other corporate giveaways that had been designed to win GOP support.

Reid didn't mince words. "We're going to move this afternoon to a smaller package than I talked about in the press," he told reporters following a meeting with his Democratic caucus. "We're going to do a bill that has four things in it."

Some liberals were disappointed that more Democratic priorities, including unemployment and health care benefits, weren't being included, said staff briefed on Thursday's meeting. But in their misery, they were comforted by the fact that the top Republican priority was also stripped from the package. K Street has been lobbying furiously for tax extenders that had been included in the Finance package.

Reid alluded to the real author of those tax extenders. "We are not going to confuse this with tax extenders," he said. "One of my favorite stories was -- I think it was in the New York Times -- one of you wrote about 'Democrats introduce a jobs bill, but most of it was written by lobbyists downtown.'" Reid said the new bill could not be mistaken for the work of lobbyists. Or, as he put it: "No one's written what we're going to bring up downtown."

Hey Liberty.... They still don't get it!

I know... It's very hard to sit and read these posts every day. They all stick to their respective side... No matter what that side does. You just want to slap them awake at times...

Hey everyone AMERICA IS BROKE!!!!!!!

Construction Jobs? They gonna build more rest stops on the Jersey Turnpike? They gonna build more court houses and Police stations? Yippie!!!!!!! We are saved.....

Maybe if the people in Washington had a clue.... Maybe they would know that these are not real jobs.... Sure 2000 people might get to work for a few weeks and then get laid off again but they are not permanent real jobs...

Wake the hell up Sheeple.....

How about they remove all restrictions on companies and give tax breaks so jobs stop going to India...

Better yet, Why not outlaw that all together?

If Harry Reid wants to save his Job. In these dire times.... Let us hear him say that he wants to OUT LAW OFF SHORE JOBS......... Then maybe Harry will have a chance.

Oh they can't do that because the corporations that are currently screwing us all are involved heavily in Off Shoring... And pay the bills of many congressmen and senators. Including Harry.... Including Mr. McCain and many other Republican and Democratic Senators alike....

Wake the hell up!

There is a difference between Capitalism and screwing the nation for profit.

Any Senator or Congressman who retires from office in the next ten years should have a full financial audit of himself and extended family... Where did all the money go people????

The internet is full of articles on Family and friends of government officials making huge amounts of money off of legislation voted.

America is Broke!!!!!

Lets all do something about it instead of wasting more time here pointing at the other guy and bitching.

Sheeple

Who's gonna pay the bills then?

You righties should have thought of that before you fell in love with outsourcing.

How do you stop that nor? More environmental laws on manufacturing? Let's pass cap and trade!! That will bring more jobs back to the US!! Lets raise corp taqxes too, that will keep jobs here in the US too.

Well, that didn't take long. The Democrats axed it...it didn't spend enough and was bipartisan:

Choice is freedom and liberty.

Just saying no and obstructing the chance to say yes or no, disallows choice and thereby disallows freedom and liberty.

#31 While we're at it, why not sieze all major corprate assets in this country for national security purposes? Works for me.
We also need to reevaluate (shitcan) many of our trade policies and agreements. It's time to pull out of the global economy.

...are you fucking retarded? They've embraced capitalism how?! The central government still pulls the strings for the entire economy. China directly invests its resources into things that really matter: education and a better educated work force; technology for clean, renewable energy including wind turbines, solar panels and hydroelectric dams. They have been emphasizing social welfare programs, jobs programs, environmental policies, and other social engineering since 2000. They may have lowered some regulatory controls over business but that's about it. They've even gone so far as to artificially control their currency. They even control or have major government ownership of large segments of the economy. They are all about big strong decisive central government controlling the overall direction of the economy.
