JOBS

17th January 2009

JOBS

Jobs, jobs and more jobs  –  that is the battle cry from the Obama camp.  And rightly so. An unemployment rate of 10% is downright scary. But there are JOBS and then … there are REAL JOBS. On the top of the Obama deck there seems to be a “stimulus” drive based on using tax dollars to make money available for more job holders. Sounds easy, but is that REALLY JOB GROWTH?  Or is that simply taking dollars from some to pass along to others? It seems more like a form of redistribution of wealth  –  couched in different terms. Of course, the DEMs and their supporters gag at the mention of redistribution of wealth. They prefer, “sharing”, “caring for your fellow man”, “civic obligation”  and other “softer” terms”  –  but not “redistribution”.

My point is that if there is a need for welfare, call it that. The REAL JOB machine that drives our economy is in the private sector where a person is hired to perform a function or duty and the income derived is from  the market –  not someone else’s taxes. Any time job numbers are based on debt or tax dollars, were are being duped. And the idea that “job” money derived from taxes will be repaid over time is downright laughable.  Maybe there is no alternative short range to attack the job issue with tax dollars. But the charade continues about “tax dollars” that are owned by the government and belong to no one. The tax dollars were mine (ours)   –  at least until out Fed Government gives them to someone else.

Take the next door on the right for FairyLand — Bailouts on sale. True, we needs jobs  –  REAL jobs.

Initials

Celebrities and other famous people are frequently known publicly by their initals.  In the political arena, FDR and JFK are regularly identified as Presidents Roosevelt and Kennedy. It occurred to me that Barack Hussein Obama deserves similar treatment since his 3 names are a mouthfull and eighteen letters are a lot to write or type. Thus BHO was born.

The Dems screamed foul claiming it was an underhanded way to draw attention to his Muslim middle name. In the spirit of correctness, I retreated and settled for simply BO. They didn’t like that either for obvious but unspecified reasons. So, I I sanitized the reference and switched back to BHO. Sorry guys.

GUVII

Blago has now appointed a Senator to replace Obama and is preparing for his own legal defense. As an opening statement, with his smiling countenance in the background, Blago says, “… all I ever wanted was respect and recognition, but disgust and contempt was as close as I ever got”. Go Illinois.
