  • Masters of delusion.

  • Oh, how flawed your argument is. Are contractors not considered job holders? Do they not pay taxes on their earnings? It is a one time move is it not? Renovating FedBuildings may be one time, but you don't have people do the work who will only do that one building. They move on, and on, to the next contract.

  • The destruction of our country and global financial crises is the brainchild of your hero George Bush. The eight year slide into the abyss of global insolvency was permitted and encouraged by people like you. Obama heard and has brilliantly responded to the cries of the people who did not permit your party to prevail. Plain and simple you gummed up the works. You stood by as every decision Bush made stuck in the gut of the average American. You did nothing. Now you complain? Sour grapes.

  • Qualified is absolutely subjective. Have you ever been held accountable for employee turnover? Every employee goes through the same interview process, and I look for very specific responses to my interview questions. I am very upfront with what our company expects and honestly, around 50% of the people do not get the job because they decide it is not for them. Resorting to name calling so soon in our discussion? Too bad. You don't know my owner. Create wealth not slaves? Tell that to Obama.

  • "Qualified" is subjective. How many legitimatly qualified individuals have you personally turned away using this age old discriminatory ruse? To whom do you apply the term? How many have you denied fair and equitable treatment by telling them they are "over-qualified?" How about denying someone telling them they've been looked over because a "more qualified" candidate has been hired? You are blind, deaf and dumb. Your "owner" is an idiot and job = Just Over Broke. Create wealth instead of slaves

  • I am a recruiter for a local business in St. Cloud, MN. I have added 35 qualified individuals to positions in our company over the last 3 months. With more tax breaks for my owner, we could expand even further. I need more qualified employees, not government handout "work". What about yourself? Created any jobs lately?

  • Eliminate the government. Lay their greedy good-for-nothing asses off. Rework and/or eliminate the fucking Federal Reserve and eliminate the IRS thus eliminating income tax. Give the country back to the people. Better yet go read "Secrets of The Federal Reserve" to understand just how Bernie Maddox, the Feds and Joseph Ponzi got their start. That also includes AMWAY and any other MLM schemer/scammers. Residual income is the creation of the kings and queens of the USA. Read and learn. Then weep.

  • Your comments regarding Barack would have more credibility IF you also noted what you and your ilk have done over the past 8 years to avert the condition the USA finds itself in today. WHAT have you done to alleviate the suffering of the working middle class? WHAT have YOU done to stablize this screwed up economy that your man George Bush created will fucking his Wall Street whores right under the nose of the so-called watchdog groups. I'd like to know asshole exactly what you've done? WHAT?

  • this idiot does not understand simple things

  • The "work" that the government is creating is not long term. The jobs will be temporary. Renovating Federal Buildings is a one time job. That is what Michael Steele is getting at. These "jobs" are nothing more than temorary pacifiers for the unemployed. Thank you, barack.
