Jobs report underwhelming

 

Wow. The January jobs report is in, and the administration is taking bows left and right (mostly to the left). Things are really improving, and a rose glow is at the end of the tunnel or rainbow – whatever!

Does 243,000 sound great? Think about it: How many towns and cities are there in the good ole U.S. of A? Do you think there are 243,000 towns and cities? If so, that means that in good old Spokane, maybe, just maybe – one person got hired to a full-time or, possibly, part-time job (on an average).

Hopefully, come November, someone will get into a political office that wants to help our economy and security, not just their own.

    But David, we were hemorrhaging like crazy just a few years ago. What would have been your solution? Let me guess, lower taxes on the super wealthy and let the economy do it’s thingy and self-right itself? Or maybe cut government spending, sending hundreds of thousands more into the unemployment?

    David, is it that you only listen to FOX so you don’t know anything ( http://tinyurl.com/cyjw3ol ) or is it because you have a much better plan because you certainly didn’t list any and neither have any of the GOP candidates.
