So do these jobs fall in the "created" category? :shrug:

1. Yeah, if you have time to notice this ...

it's just because you're lazy and not working hard enough. God will never bless you with material things that way! Get a job! Don't read the news. If you can't find a job, it's your fault for watching the "Daily Show".

Move along. Nothing to see here.

2. Went through this in the '80's

Thank god I had 8 yrs of Clinton to get back on my feet.....still waiting for it to trickle-down!

3. Someone quoted Hanity the other day. His idea to get rid of poverty was

"Get a Job". Well that settles it. 115% of unemployed people are lazy and wish for handouts and its all liberals/medias fault. Never mind the 100+ resumes that I've sent out. I must be a lazy pile of poop.

4. A good line

About three months ago a guy on DU that had been unemployed like years asked "When you have a graduate degree in computer science, what do you retrain for?"

Cuts like a knife, doesn't it?

7. A large portion of the people I graduated with

have gone back to grad school. It was real depressing thinking i was almost done and seeing the same people who were supposed to get "real" jobs back in school.

6. Ever notice the amount of welfare people with W stickers ?

5. The US has only 10 million production workers . . .

. . .with a population approaching 300 million . . .
