Clo,
In a nutshell.
We NEED Jobs.

obamba wants a carbon tax - driving up the costs for
American businesses and destroying jobs.

obamba-care is another jobs destroyer.

The new taxes, which take effect this year, will
siphon money out of the economy where it should be
going round and round spinning off jobs . . . and
shovel it into the pockets of the friends of corrupt
congress critters.

And, no, tax cuts for the rich or for corporations
are not the answer. Last I heard, corporations have
tons of cash . . . So why aren't they using it to
expand their businesses and make more money?

Zim.

House GOP leaders coach rank-and-file on discussing unemployment
BY ROBERT COSTA
January 7 at 4:41 pm

House Republican leaders sent a memo this week to the entire GOP conference with talking points designed to help rank-and-file Republicans show compassion for the unemployed and explain the Republican position on unemployment benefits. In the memo, which was obtained by The Washington Post, House Republicans are urged to be empathetic toward the unemployed and understand how unemployment is a "personal crisis" for individuals and families. The memo also asks Republicans to reiterate that the House will give "proper consideration" to an extension of long-term insurance as long as Democrats are willing to support spending or regulatory reforms.

A bipartisan Senate bill that would extend benefits for the long-term unemployed cleared a procedural hurdle Tuesday, with six Republicans joining Democrats to vote for it. But the bill faces an uncertain future in the upper chamber, where it will have to clear another 60-vote hurdle before moving to a final vote.
