But good news! President Obama has announced that he is going to direct the government to spend even more money to create 17,000 jobs with green energy!
So, 85,000 jobs were lost due to Obama's lousy economy, and we're supposed to get excited about 17,000 jobs he supposedly created?
Nevermind that this is done with our own money. Yes, that includes me -- my unemployment benefits are taxed as income.
Nevermind that these jobs are related to one of Obama's pet themes. Imagine the response if Bush had "created" jobs by sending more people to Iraq, and that if anyone wanted one of these jobs, all he/she had to do was enlist in the military.
Nevermind that the idea behind green jobs is global warming, an exposed hoax that keeps getting promoted while we've got historic low temperatures and record snowfalls, not to mention record low levels of pollution in this country.
Nevermind that these are union jobs, closely affiliated with Obama's friends at SEIU.
Nevermind that these aren't high-paying jobs, well, wouldn't be if the unions weren't involved.
Nevermind that historically every job in "green energy" has resulted in 2 1/2 jobs lost elsewhere.
Thanks, Mr. President. I'll just sit here trying to find a job (I've been told that my industry in this area has 100 applicants for every posted job) while I watch my taxes go up even more.
