This is how our leaders handle those of us who are hungry and angry enough to speak up.

Mr. Thompson of Indiana made a couple of "threats" to get their attention, they are written and verbal, but not at gunpoint.

I totally understand the feelings of aggression that comes over us when we the people are mired in trying to survive and those in positions who could help us simply turn their backs to our pleas and problems.

Like our lives don't matter while they live in luxury.

There aren't enough jobs for everybody in this country, this is a fact, and if unemployment and other government run benefits are cut off too, how are we expected to live?

Eating out of dumpsters? Sleeping in the streets? Begging hand to mouth?

What's the deal?

How stupid do they think we are?

Seems to be pretty self explanatory and can't say they would really be wrong.

Well, they did vote in the lyinkenyan twice.

Purty duckin fumb, no?

Report: More Than 92 Million Americans Remain Out Of Labor Force

What is really holding us back?

Hmm. Let's see ...

1) There is a mismatch between the skills, experience and knowledge needed for the jobs available and the the skills, experience and knowledge of the people who are seeking employment.

2) Instead of moving to other parts of the USA where available jobs are, Americans tend to want to stay living in their current communities/states.

3) American workers tend to become so specialized in their field of work, that they lack the flexibility needed in order to change careers.

4) Americans who find themselves unemployed after moving up the economic ladder often seek jobs that will pay for the higher standard of living that they are accustomed to.

5) Employers are reluctant to hire more workers in response to the regulations that the federal government requires employers to conform to.

Unemployment Extension 2014: Is The GOP Right About The Unemployment Rate Dropping Due To Ending Benefits?

www.inquisitr.com/1246382/unemployment-extension-2014-is-the-gop-right-about-the-unemployment-rate-dropping-due-to-ending-benefits/

How stupid do they think we are? Unemployment rates don't prove anything other than 10% of the workforce fluctuates back and forth while the other 90% have no real options.



The unemployment extension debate in 2014 has divided Republicans and Democrats, with the former arguing that the unemployment extension should be dropped in order to encourage Americans to seek jobs, while Democrats believe unemployment benefits should be renewed indefinitely, or at least until the United States economy has improved significantly.

But what does the recent unemployment rate numbers tell us about who may be right?

In general, unemployment benefits are intended to be a trampoline that bounces back workers into a job without losing everything.

But some people fear that the unemployment extension has caused these benefits to become a hammock where some Americans have chosen to be lazy rather than actively seek a job.

For example, economist Fred Giertz of the University of Illinois believes "tough love" is necessary and dropping the unemployment extension could force the jobless to work harder at finding work.

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) agrees with this assessment, saying that an unemployment extension could cost $26 billion over 10 years and they say job-seekers may "reduce the intensity of their job search and remain unemployed longer."

At the same time, the CBO also points out that US economy would be helped by the unemployment extension since the unemployed would spend the money received from benefits in their local economy, although critics of this position say that's like borrowing from Peter to pay Paul."



HOW DARE THOSE THAT SIT COMFORTABLY fed, clothed and housed while still being employed without fear of losing their incomes judge the unemployed who aren't being lazy by choice.

TOUGH LOVE they spout as they terminate the means for families to eat and stay off the street. While their incomes keep flowing.

It's always those who have no idea what life is really like when we have to rob Peter to pay Paul just to make our monthly bills who sit in judgment looking down their noses while telling us to tighten our belts as they loosen theirs.

And that's all we need to fill the void in our bellies is for Republicans and Democrats to doubt our integrity and talk, talk, talk about anything and everything while doing absolutely nothing that puts us back to work!

These are all contradictions, one invalidating the other. Here we start off with no skills, experience or knowledge but we must move outside our support base and beware of developing specialized skills, experience and knowledge while also being careful not to qualify for promotions or increased standards of life in the face of employers reluctant to hire because their may be or could be regulations the government imposes.

Why don't you just state the obvious, the government hasn't a clue as to how to provide anything positive about creating jobs but is tremendously effective in killing the efforts of those that do in order to protect the donors that keep the psychopathic statist delivering some delusional authority to the masses that are too ignorant to know any different.

And personally I would suggest you move nowhere unless it is closer to a support base and that you use your energies learning how to care for yourself and your loved ones. Because as the old saying goes, "May you live in interesting times". But you haven't seen anything yet, these times are due to get very interesting, very interesting indeed.

4) Nobody likes to go backwards in life. It can be very demeaning and ego deflating.

Well, if protecting your ego is more important than having a job ...

Oh, forget it. You are a Human, and ...


Thankfully I am a Melmacian.

Da-dee Da-dum

The politics of our economy is another story. There is no sane approach to jobs in Washington. There is a lot of talk to win elections with no knowledge of what actually has to be done.

The masses are too ignorant to know exactly how they are being mined by the elite gold diggers, but they do in fact feel it enough to complain and ask why.

To ask, "Where's my piece of the pie?" too. As hard as we work we deserve our due!

And its the very elite who don't want to share the wealth that are keeping the masses ignorant by making access to any useful ladders damn near impossible to reach, let alone climb.

I think it's making a mockery of true world progress when the powers that be intentionally price the cost of living above the mass majority's head so the elitists can be extremely choosy about who they rub shoulders with.

Just calling a spade a spade.
