Obama Wants To Pass A Bill That Costs Up To $312,500 Per Job
President Obama will be most of the rest of the year campaigning not only to be re-elected, but to push is “jobs” bill that is another attempt to rush a bill through a-lá-Obamacare, presenting a false pretense that it’s “paid for” when the reality is that it isn’t. A bill that is fair to all of us that pay taxes and garnishes earnings and a reasonable effort to recruit more and more people cannot amount to the ridiculous amount of approximately $200,000 up to $312,500 per job created OR SAVED. Yes, no typos-per job.
Take a look:
The President’s deal is said to increase GDP by $300 billion or 2 percent and add or 1.9 million jobs. The plan is expected to cost tax payers $475 billion, well over the $300 billion that analysts were originally forecasting. ZeroHedge notes that $475 billion financed over a ten year basis at 2.5 percent will add roughly an additional $120 billion in interest.
This means that while his plan will raise $300 billion in GDP, it will cost tax payers around $593.8 billion, representing a ROI of -49.5 percent.
If you don’t factor in the interest, it will cost the tax payers $250,000 per job and $312,500 after factoring in the interest tax.
Whoever is doing that math, is an evil malign tumor that has a laundromat with a Slushie machine inside.
This bad joke has got to stop now. What blows my mind is why nobody is stopping this madness. Who is waiting for what? If most of the United States are “game on” for destroying this country on purpose thinking that this can be in a jiffy, they’re absolutely wrong.
Wanna Strike? You’re Fired, Along With Your License
Puerto Rico‘s Secretary of Education fired all the top brass of the Teachers’ Federation. Unprecedented!
They won’t be able to teach. Education Secretary, Jesús Rivera Sánchez, canceled teachers‘ certifications to the Executive Committee of the Teachers’ Federation. (Primera Hora / Archivo / David Villafañe) NOTE: This is a rough English translation to the original news article in Spanish, which can be read here. In an act without precedent, the eleven members of the Executive Committee of the Federation of teachers were decertified as teachers, and may not exercise their profession in public or private schools. Education Secretary Jesús Rivera Sánchez dismissed ten teachers’ career positions on Friday and cancelled (voided) their certifications as teachers permanently, so they will be unlicensed to teach. In the letter of dismissal against them, their offenses of abandonment of service, participated in a teachers’ strike on August of 2010 – a strike in which about 30,000 teachers were absent from their work – and recommended a vote of strike by enrollment in an Assembly of delegates. “This is not an isolated incident, it also comes with the deprivation of the right to have all our members pay dues to the Teachers Federation,” said the leader of the guild, Rafael Feliciano, in a press conference together with the other 10 teachers that were fired. Feliciano indicated that they will continue to remain in their trade union posts, even if they don’t get paid with salaries and continue the administrative procedure before the appellate commission of the public service, without discarding to go to court. “They will not intimidate us. We are going to fight and are going to win,” said their leader, Rafael Feliciano. He added that this action has the goal to frighten other teachers so that they won’t fight against the current administration’s plans to privatize schools and eliminate the teachers’ retirement system. “The members of the executive committee knew we were going to be exposed to all these evil things and their repressive brutality on the part of the Education Secretary, since these disciplinary hearings are nothing but a firing squad,” said Feliciano at the press conference, located at the headquarters of the Employees’ Union of Water and Sewerage’s Authority Systems in Hato Rey, where yesterday the same federation would have an assembly of delegates. In the afternoon’s meeting, Feliciano said that they will discuss any other attempts to stop more firings, including the possibility of a workers’ strike of 24 to 48 hours and a boycott to the Puerto Rican tests of Academic Advantage that students must take on the first week of April. Feliciano dismissed complaints coming from a group of teachers from “The Commission of Teachers of the Communist Party,” which announced yesterday that they planned to disaffiliate themselves from the Federation. “The Magisterial repudiates attitudes and anti-democratic actions of the de facto leader of the Federation”, said Félix Arroyo which is their speaker, in another press conference.Kids Grade Obama With A "B"
Perhaps Obama read this kids’ poll?
I found it very…interesting, that The One grades himself the way kids do grade him. Does that mean that children are, of course, not following politics as closely as their parents? Or, that Obama thinks we must be treated like children?
The article is from Time For Kids, which is online. This magazine (online as I can see), adresses children from Kindergarten to early teens. What I got from it? That my kids are absolutely normal, but instead of a “B”, my son would give him a “D” or an “F”. My daughter is a Palinite, but doesn’t care about grading anybody.
Here are some of the questions asked for their poll (any emphasis and italics are mine):
Kids graded President Barack Obama on his first year in office.
Obama’s Grades:
A: 19%
B: 30%
C: 24%
D: 10%
F: 16%
Kids’ Hopes and Dreams
Most kids say they will choose a job based on how much they will enjoy it. But if kids could have one wish granted, many would ask for money. Why? “So my mom wouldn’t have to work so much,” one girl said. (Awwww!!) Here are the jobs and wishes at the top of kids’ lists. (*see below for top percentage)
What Kids Wish For:
Health: 7%
Happiness: 7%
Travel: 6%
Fame: 5%
Long life: 5%
Money: 27%
Possessions: 15%
Better World: 8%
Other: 20%
*Top score for boy’s jobs: Athletes, with a 15%. Top score for girl’s jobs: Teacher, with 17%. My favorite information is below:
More Information
37% of kids say the person they look up to most in the world is their mother.
Nine out of 10 kids think there will be a female President in their lifetime.
Almost all kids agree that it is not okay to text in class or at the dinner table.
Children offer advise to Obama on the poll, but I am not gonna share it nor care for it, because I don’t want him to succeed.
