Unemployment Offices To Add Armed Guards:
The agency is merely being cautious with the approach of an early-December deadline when thousands of Indiana residents could see their unemployment benefits end after exhausting the maximum 99 weeks provided through multiple federal extension periods. Ref. Source 6
Green jobs economy = FAIL
President Obama has been touting the 'green economy' as the way to solve all of our economic troubles. Of course, Spain has tried this model and they are currently sporting unemployment above 20%, not exactly a model that sounds worth following. California is among the first to try - a big solar panel plant got $535 million in stimulus money. How has it worked out? Worse than you would even think. Ref. Source 9
White House engaging in fuzzy math
The White House has been touting a chart that makes the claim that President Obama has created more jobs than Bush did in his entire 8 years! Wow, that's quite a claim. It takes some serious number juggling (and omitting) to come up with a jobs number that is both positive and contains Obama's name on it. Ref. Source 7
Unemployment rises to 9.8%
Rewind the clock to the pre-stimulus argument from Barack Obama. He used fear mongering to get it passed arguing that if the stimulus did NOT pass unemployment might rise all the way to 9 percent They also promised if it were passed it would cap unemployment at 8 percent Another example of what the youth describe as a FAIL. Is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Ref. Source 3
