Thanks to the democrat's Obamacare law unemployment will go up. I take no pleasure in pointing that out...it's a simple matter of economics, something democrats either don't understand or they just don't care about the consequences of their actions.

There’s an old saying, “Poor people have poor ways.” Until the “poor” change those ways, they will forever be poor.

Imagine all the low-skill jobs that would open up if illegals were deported, not amnetized.

Guess we’re getting close to the time where they’ll say reparations is the only solution.

Seriously, is the black community aware that Obama wants Amnesty for illegals? and Amnesty is endorsed by the Congressional Black Caucus? and if Amnesty goes through the black community will be tossed aside because the Democrats have a larger minority group to court votes from? They need to wakeup!

“While the national unemployment rate for all Americans is at nearly 10 percent (17 percent if you count people who have given up looking for jobs or work only part time),..”

Here’s a comparison with the Depression:
1923-29 3.3%(market crashed 10/29)
1931 15.9%
1933 24.9%
1941 9.9%(Pearl Harbor attacked 12/41)
1942 4.7%

"We concluded they were just kind of listening to us and that then they would go back (to their offices) and conclude that we would do nothing," Missouri Rep. Emanuel Cleaver,

Ya. It's kinda like they spit on you, only for real this time.

Blacks have unlimited fealty to the Democrat party which in turn brings in 20-40 million illegals to work the service industry, construction, and agricultural jobs which blacks used to hold in large numbers.

These are both entry level jobs that young blacks could take rather than hang out in the streets, and skilled labor jobs like carpentry, painting, car repair and assembly lines.

They are also the jobs that educated blacks could have in business, engineering, medicine, that an H1 visa program has turned over to foreign workers who will work for less than proper wages.

Blacks are in this fix and will continue to stay in this fix as long as they unquestionably give their loyalty to a democrat party who has presided over black societal declines that see widespread unwemployment and a welfare caste that sees 70% of black children born outside of a family structure. They have doubled their loyalty to a black president who doesn’t give a damn about them and secretly laughs at their plight knowing they will stupidly support him for no other reason than he is black.

Bottom line for blacks - vote democrat and stay in the hell you are creating for yourself.

There must be a way for Zero to create good paying jobs for all these high school dropouts.

How about a massive new tax on car washes? He could make $25 per hour the min wage at the car-wash, and require everyone to get their car washed twice a week.

If you live anywhere where there are groundskeepers (as at my apartment complex), look out your window and see who is doing the work. Better yet, I’ll just tell you what you’ll see: Hispanics. Working hard and behaving admirably.

Now, these young Hispanics you see doing the dirty work will one day own the companies for which they now work, or they’ll open companies of their own. They will then hire their own.

That is what minorities in this country have done since our founding. Minorities, that is, except one: blacks. They prefer to blame the white man and collect welfare.

So, the next uneducated, overpopulated (with illegitimate children) generations of blacks will have very few black entrepreneurs who started at the bottom, now are at the top, and can hire their own kind.

In short, black unemployment is the fault of black people.

I believe that Obama is on record as saying reparations aren’t enough.

I would contend that we are going to see most new government jobs created go to the black community.

IMHO, part of a Black Caucaus and Nation of Islam backroom understanding.

I'd love to see them interview Peggy Joseph, the black woman who gained notoriety when she said "Obama was gonna pay her mortgage".

Ya know, just to see how that 'hopey-changy' thang is workin' out for her...

I guess that will teach them for staying on the dark side with the demwits.

New black immigrants whether from Ethiopia or Somalia, or anywhere in Africa tend to be very hard working from what I’ve seen. Don’t have the victim attitude either.

The more unemployment, poverty and desperation there is in the black population, the more secure are the positions of the con-artist black "leaders"......including Obama, Al Sharpie and Jesse James Jackson and other assorted poverty pimps and "community organizers".

The folks in black communities across the nation are sure slow learners.
