Big government can't put young adults to work

"What have you done for me lately?" It's a question that voters implicitly ask politicians, especially ones they have supported and who are seeking their votes again. And it's a question that young voters in particular may be asking Barack Obama, whom they supported by a 66 percent to 32 percent margin 13 months ago.

It's a question that is obviously on the minds of some thoughtful Democrats. They've noticed that unemployment among the young is well above the national average -- it reached 27.6 percent among those ages 16 to 19 in October.

They've noticed that an increasing number of young people -- about half of those between ages 18 and 24 -- are still living in their parents' homes. They've noticed that entry-level work is scarce, as older workers cling to their jobs.

So they're urging the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress to do something to help young people. But they seem to be having a hard time coming up with solutions that match the scope of the problem....

Very good article.  It is a great piece to introduce what will work and it is not government, but is government getting out of the way.  Go to http://Mifairtax.org and to http://fairtax.org to find the truth about how our State and Nation has been scourged of jobs by our production tax structures in Michigan and the USA.  How can we compete with anyone with our taxes, and high taxation to boot, is built into the price of our Michigan Product when imports evade taxation?  How is it that manufacturing flooded out of Michigan and the USA right after free trade was implemented in the 1980's?  Why is it that companies like Baines Capital took advantage of this by buying up struggling companies in a recession and took the contracts overseas to fill the orders and bypass our American taxes? 

 

Nope, the DPW will not work.  Who would get on the end of a shovel when a backhoe is about digging ditches?  Who would spend our taxes on such foolishness?  It is about as smart as flooding the top of the banking system with funds instead of flooding the small bank accounts with funds into individual mortgages and/IRAs which would end up at the top of the banking system? 

 

It appears, with our demise from not correcting the tax structure with free trade and this crisis bailout, crime of the century, to hide the Federal Reserve books from BASEL of the international banking community, that we the American people are the biggest dummies on the planet.  We are being punished for being the greatest enterprise this planet has ever known and for what, greed.  Shall we roll up in a ball and say la vie or shall we rise up and do something about it.  Demand Constitutional conduct by the Feds and demand FairTax at the Federal level and in Michigan.  Let's educate the Nation by leading it to the promised land by passing the MIFairTax plan.

Did the GOP Really lose it's way?~Rich Muny

Very good analysis of what happened over the past 10 years. Here is a link to Independence Caucus, a site for vetting candidates on their constitutional character. http://icaucus.ning.com

What is the difference between a Conservative Nationalist and a liberal nationalist? A Federalist. When President Bush offered the Democrats 20 billion dollars for ACORN to get them to sign the first bailout, that did it, it turned on the light and these elitists in DC are exposed. Do not vote for any candidate who is not a fundamentalist of the Constitution, even if it means voting third party. But let us not be ignorant to the benefit of cleaning up the GOP of it's RINOs.

Great article.

Did the GOP Really Lose Its Way?

by Rich Muny

Many conservative politicians, radio hosts, and pundits have repeatedly stated their shared belief that the Republican Party "lost its way" prior to the 2008 election.  In their minds, the entire conservative movement believed in limited government and low spending and was simply corrupted by absolute power.  They may be surprised to learn that this is not the case at all.  The fact that party leadership turned its back on limited government and low spending was entirely predictable.  In fact, it should have been expected....continue article here

Demand the old Media Report on ClimateGate

The liberal media are refusing to cover the greatest
scandal in modern science because it goes against
their left-wing agenda!

Leaked e-mails by top climate scientists reveal a pattern
of deception by global warming alarmists.  It turns out
all the data don't support their warming theories.

Instead of reporting on the growing ClimateGate scandal,
network news organizations are giving us up-to-the-minute
coverage of Tiger Woods-no doubt hoping the world will
forget the story and simply move on ...

I refuse to move on. In fact, I've already sent emails
to key executives at ABC, NBC, and CBS, demanding they
report the truth about ClimateGate.

I'm encouraging you to do the same by clicking here:

Thanks for joining with me.
