During the Bush years, many of you partisan jackasses out there derided the 2003 recovery as being ‘lackluster.’ For some strange reason, you felt Bush, in all of his awesomeness, had control over the economy. The end result of the Bush economy was a grande crash of epic proportions, which helped pave the way for the Obama regime.
Just like Bush, Obama has no control, whatsoever, over the US economy. It’s run by corporations, for the corporations, and there is very little government can do, other than offer temporary stimulus.
Having said that, I’d like to acknowledge today’s jobs report as “the new norm.” They were terrible and will continue to be terrible because your stupid kids aren’t prepared for the 21st century. Keep telling them it makes sense to be a cop or a god damned fireman, or even a doctor. They’ll hate you for it later.
Jobs are being exported because corporations want cheap labor. If you want a high paying job, forget about a manufacturing plant and learn to code. If you don’t want to code, learn how to play this stock market racket.
The Federal Reserve will continue with QE. This morning’s numbers solidified the fact that the economy is still too weak to grow on its own. The rich will get richer and everyone else will fall by the wayside.
