IBD Observes — Since the 2008 recession:
* Federal employment has jumped by 10%, or nearly 200,000 positions,
* Private-sector employment has plunged 7%, or 7.8 million jobs.
* Massive spending and an unprecedented expansion of the role of the U.S. government in the American economy.
* CBO Estimate of spending for the next 10 years: $44.5 trillion from 2010 to 2020 - an 82% jump from $24.5 trillion spent in the last decade.
CONCLUSION :
* Big Government and its unions are the main beneficiaries of the “stimulus”.
* The real aim of the Democratic stimulus is NOT jobs or infrastructure or any other real-world accomplishment, but to INCREASE THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT.
Private-sector employment has plunged 7%, or 7.8 million jobs.

Obama is doing just what he planned with the economy. His goals are in sight. Everyone will either be employed by the government; dependent on the government or a lamp shade.
Liar = Obama.
Cheater = Feds.
Thief = Congress.
Con artist = Piss-Stream Media.
Throw 'em all out.
