If consumer spending is required to bring us out of our current economic depression, then why are the democrats putting a drag on the economy through more taxes on small-businesses-and-individuals-and-capital-gains-and-dividends-and-energy-and-health-care-and-more-spending-which-requires-more-debt-service-which-requires-more-spending-and-higher-taxes?
The net result is these folks don’t have disposable income to help bring back the economy.
Look at this graph (here). See how private sector hiring has gone waaaaaay down since Q-4 ’07 but public hiring has gone up? Private employers have shed about 290,000 jobs in Oregon, but the public sector continues hiring! Government, however, has increased by approximately 21,000 jobs. And, hey, all you unemployed, underemployed folks, you get to pay for them!
They can’t all be welfare workers, friends.
This is the macro look at how the democrats do it: create more public sector, union member jobs and pay their friends back by giving them jobs. Margaret Carter and Larry Galizio ring a bell?
Good job, Brownie er, I mean, Teddy and BHO!
