Using the rather twisted logic that only an America hating, Socialist, Progressive, Liberal, Democrat could ever possibly understand, Barry "Almighty", in citing the job losses since he took office, actually made the very idiotic claim that, "the economy would be much better off," unemployment would be 6.5 percent and the national deficit would be in decline if 'only' there were more federal, state and local government workers. Now is that not about the most insane argument you have ever heard to justify increasing the size of the federal government? Is he grabbing at straws, or what?
Barry "Almighty" actually said, "If those layoffs had not happened, if public sector employees grew like they did in the past two recessions, the unemployment rate would be 6.5 instead of 7.5." And he furthered his idiotic claim by adding, "Our economy would be much better off, and the deficit would still be going down because we would be getting more tax revenue." Just how stupid does one need to be to believe any of this imbecilic drivel? And I'd be curious to know if Barry might still be using some sort of illicit drug, and what exactly it might be. Because how else can you possibly explain such a cockamamie way of looking at things?
Barry spewed this his typical brand of bullsh!t on Tuesday while at the Amazon Fulfillment Center in Chattanooga, Tenn., where he promoted plans that he claimed would help the middle class, such as corporate tax reform, increased federal spending on infrastructure, more education spending, public-private partnerships and rolling back the sequester. But, you know, I couldn't help but wonder if that's the same middle class that he has spent the better part of his time in office trying to decimate? Because Barry has done nothing but to make matters worse on just about all fronts. And has demonstrated very little concern regarding the damage he has caused.
Barry has been unrelenting in his continuing assault on the middle class. And he has been as thorough as he has been aggressive. Every time I go to fill up my car, I'm spending more. Every time I go to the grocery store, I'm paying more. Every month when I get my utility bill, I'm paying more. More, more, more! Meanwhile I get to watch his dumb ass go on multi-million dollar vacations and throw big parties at the White House. My disposable income has all but disappeared since this asshole first came into office. So all of this working to help the middle class is nothing but a load of crap!
Barry said, "Instead of using a scalpel to get rid of programs we don’t need and keep vital investments that we do, the same group has kept in place this meat cleaver called the sequester that is just slashing all kinds of investments in education and research and our military." And then went on to add, "Yet all the things that are needed to make this country a magnet for good middle class jobs, those things are being cut. These moves don’t just hurt our economy in the long term. They hurt our middle class right now," he added. Again with this faux concern for the plight of the middle class. A situation that he, himself, has created!
And I can't believe this sniveling little douche bag is still whining about the sequestration, especially when it was all his idea from the start. Sequestration, for those who haven't been paying even the slightest attention, was the automatic 2.3 percent reduction in the growth of federal spending that took effect on March 1 as a result of Congress and Barry being unable to reach a 'deal.' The sequester is a result of the 2011 debt ceiling negotiations and was meant to be a trigger to force the two sides to reach some sort of a deal. Actually what it was, was an attempt by Barry to get the Republicans to, essentially, cave on the sequestration.
Barry wasted little time in citing Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that the sequester would, supposedly cost some 750,000 lost jobs this year and 900,000 lost jobs next year. But I think it far to say that those numbers are highly suspect. Barry then proceeded to reference additional government jobs lost since he took office in 2009. "Over the past four years, another 700,000 workers at the federal, state and local levels of government lost their jobs. These are cops and firefighters." Yup, and all with very bloated pensions that we simply can no longer afford to cover the cost of.
And then in making very little sense, Barry said, "About half of them are people that work in our schools. Those are real jobs. It doesn’t help a company like Amazon when a teacher, cop or a firefighter loses their job. They don’t have money to place an order. That’s hundreds of thousands of customers who have less money to spend." Adding, "If those layoffs had not happened, if public sector employees grew like they did in the past two recessions, the unemployment rate would be 6.5 instead of 7.5." Anybody believing any of this load of pure BS?
Look, let's forget all about this idiotic notion that somehow our unemployment is really at 7.5 percent. That's just plain nuts! Because IF we were to have the same number of bodies in the American workforce that were there when Barry first took office, our unemployment rate would be in the range of roughly 16 or 17 percent. But of the fact that we now have roughly 10 Million fewer folks in that same workforce, we're provided with a number that is nothing if not a work of pure fiction. That being the 7.5 percent number, that we constantly hear being bandied about, is nothing but just one more LIE on a very long list of many!
