Comments on: Unemployment Tops 10% in 15 States, D.C.

Wealth has been concentrated in America to an astonishing extent, ever since Reagan cut taxes in 1980. Today, 400 Americans own more wealth than the poorer half of the nation (150 million people). To me, that's astonishing inequality. While freedom and liberty don't lead to equality, at some point its difficult to be free when the nations resources are tied up in a mere fraction of her people.

Well let's see Obama has made things worse.. Interesting. And for all you liberals that want to blame Bush remember you voted in a democratic congress almost 3 years ago. We all knew this would happen except you clowns.

We need confidence. More confidence. But how can we have confidence with all this uncertainty and the prospect of war in Korea, and the likelihood of an Israeli attack on Iran? How can we have confidence when our leader has the ear of such clowns as David Axelrod?

Now you want to save more jobs from being lost, you can work on job creation later. Helping small businesses do well should be the focus. They need finance and marketing to gain new customers and new markets. We can help immensely there. Most small businesses are run by people that are not professional business managers.

Do you care to share with us a detailed list of all the WMDs they found in Iraq during operation Iraqi Freedom?

How about showing us where Colon Powell told the UN our primary mission in invading Iraq was to topple Sadam from power?

No Kimbery.

Bush stated at the time that this was the end to major combat operations in Iraq.

Now, go back to your room.

In jan 2001 when Bush took over the Govt Deficit was $5.7 tillion.....in Jnauary 2007 when the Dems toook over it was $8.6trillion....currently it is about 11.5 trillion.....

In 5 yrs Bush added$3 trillion to the deficit. In just 2-1/2 years the Dems have added $2.9 trillion! and they will add another 3 trillion in 2010.

try being honest, GeorgeWHoover.

Most Fed policymakers said it could take "five or six years" for the economy and the labor market to get back on a path of long-term health. To get there, consumers must return to a regular spending groove and housing prices need to start rising again.

Of course, what is left unsaid is that to even get into a regular spending groove well paying jobs must be created here, not in India or China. We have already had one jobless recovery, don't be surprised if this 10% is the new norm after our current jobless recovery.

This transcends Republican and Democrat nonsense-The same swindlers run both parties and this country will be a basket case until they are rooted out.
If you want to know who they are-do your own research-and turn off the friggin TV.
