“Reaganomics means you start a business in your garage; Obamanomics means you move into your parent’s garage.”
I saw the quote in an article in Investors.com. Good reading and it includes an eye opening chart on employment under the two administrations.
Move into your parents garage?, maybe providing they haven’t lost it along with the house due to continued unemployment prolonged by a Barnie Frank assisted foreclosure. But that would be Bush’s fault to hear them Dems spin it.
Another quote I heard, but don’t remember who said it. “Under this administration we’re dealing with raising the minimum wage instead of talking about people earning the maximum wage.”
With so many people unemployed looking for any job they can get there’s no incentive for employers to offer a higher wage.
That may have been Art Laffer, Peggy.
I went in search of an answer and found this inforamtive article at CATO that asserts, “…the glowing claims about minimum wage laws don’t pass the most basic economic tests.”
CATO researched various nations with and without minimum wage laws, compared the data (see charts), and came to the following conclusions:
That’s one of the problems with progressive ideas…they always start from settling for the mediocre solution. Why not support solutions that have the potential to lift people well into the middle class and beyond?
Vote the bums out!!

Obama today got a taste of what the rest of the world thinks of him.
Barack Obama Knows Now What It’s Like to Give a Speech Where Only One Man Claps:
“Okay, THAT was certainly embarrassing. At the end of a joint news conference with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte in the Netherlands on Tuesday, the applause for Barack Obama came from a grand total of one guy. One.
After thanking the crowd twice for suffering through his boring, standard worn-out spiel, Obama looked around the room, expecting the usual fanfare and applause he receives from his loyal followers back home. It never came.
Instead, the Leader of the Free World was met with one slow, awkward clap. Question: was MSNBC’s Chris Matthews in the house?”

The lines are being drawn Peggy. Next November will hopefully give us a group with some backbone to at least bust through some of the barriers to growth if not remove them all together!
That video is pretty sad. I still feel for this man even as I can’t stand the mess his policies have made and will make…he was not ready to be President.
