I had to go to an independent banker with a 9% interest for 7 years. My health insurance per month went from $400 per month to now $505 and still increasing. Take a look at each city in our country. See how many strip malls have empty spaces. How many a banded homes are there in each town or foreclosed. How many families have to share their home with extended families? Unless you speak personally with each US citizen, numbers can not be accurate. Not ever job loss has been reported for unemployment. For some people, it's almost impossible to get unemployment. I still can't afford to hire an employee after 3.5 years in business due to the crappy federal taxes. If you pay someone state min, its really like paying them DOUBLE after taxes. I can't imagine the amount of headache for the corporate and larger businesses. Job loss will increase, the value of the American dollar continues to decline, the cost of living will continue to skyrocket and people will lose their shirts due to the Obama Care laws. Being forced to have health insurance for every person is a load of crap. Most jobs on average don't support enough money for a family of 4 to buy health insurance. If Mr. Jones is the soul supporter in a family of 4 and makes only $35,000 annually and just the cost of heath insurance alone is $1500 per month, this is fair? Maybe if they lived under a bridge and had free food.

So....Sorry I didn't see your comment sooner. <br /><br />So.. you really thought that we would start adding jobs on day one? You thought that much of Obama? <br /><br />Look, we were looking into an abyss. The economy-- the world economy-- was in really bad shape. 600,000 people a week were being laid off back in late 2008 and early 2009. 600,000 a week. Those are seasonally adjusted numbers. In real numbers, we were losing 800,000 to 900,000 jobs a week in early January 2009. And hiring was down to nothing.<br /><br />Now there is no way that the economy can turn around on a dime. The hemorrhaging needs to stop first. <br /><br />I've written about this over and over.
