As companies fromGeneral Motors Corp. to Kimberly-Clark Corp. cut costs, the lack of jobs will restrain growth.
“This will be another jobless recovery,” [...]

The Pathetic Obama “Infomercial” Presidency

Published by AJStrata under All General Discussions

This is just getting ridiculous.

OBAMA: Debbie is a perfect example of somebody who we should, in a country this wealthy, be able to provide coverage for her health care problems. … So, Debbie, you are Exhibit A, and we appreciate you serving — sharing our story.
So: who, exactly, was Exhibit A? The Associated Press has a little [...]

Companies in the U.S. cut more jobs than forecast in June, according to a private report today, showing the labor market will be slow to improve even as other parts of the economy indicate the recession is abating.

Will We Finally Know What The Fed Is Doing With All That Money?

Published by DJStrata under All General Discussions

Rep. Ron Paul introduced a bill in February that would require the GAO to audit the Federal Reserve by the end of 2010. Although Paul wants to get rid of the Fed all together, he has received 245 co-sponsors for the bill.
With the Federal Reserve holding interest rates at rock-bottom levels, pumping trillions into the [...]

Paul Krugman Commits Treason Against Intelligence

Published by AJStrata under All General Discussions

Sorry, couldn’t resist to note when a scientifically challenged reporter attempts to play smart around those of us who really do know science (and the fact the Earth has been cooling for a decade).

Published by AJStrata under Stem Cell Debate

 
Hey, while the Obama-Pelosi-Reid job stimulus package fails, you can always run to New York and sell your children for spare parts to the rich and famous:

President Obama’s Bluff On Jobs Outlook

Published by AJStrata under All General Discussions

It is amazing what people are willing to believe, even when there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary. I found this article to be both humorous and sad. Sad because the Obama administration tells a flat out lie and the pliant media run to repeat it without challenge, and too many actually will believe it:
The US [...]

ObamaCare Would Not Have Tried To Resuscitate Michael Jackson

Published by AJStrata under All General Discussions

And interesting thought experiment is to think about Michael Jackson’s treatment under ObamaCare. We know a large group of doctors spent over an hour trying to resuscitate Jackson.  Think of all that expense spent on trying to save a drug user. Under ObamaCare it would seem to be a waste of money. Think of how [...]

Expect Decades Of Mass Unemployment As Result Of Liberal Economic Experiments

Well, we seem to be assured that the end of liberalism will be a spectacular failure. Between the failed liberal economic stimulus package - which is not stimulating any new jobs - and the energy tax & trade bill being voted on in the house, we could see an economic depression coming our way.

Michael Jackson: Extremely Talented And Extremely Disturbed

Published by AJStrata under All General Discussions

 
I have pondered how to write this post. I am a huge fan of Michael Jackson’s music. I am not a huge fan of what Michael had become, as the soul killing Hollywood culture mutilated this fine young man over the years. From early reports it seems his circle of sycophants finally completed their endless damage on [...]
