Jobs: Less spending = Less Jobs

When a business, or a government, cuts back on spending it means jobs will be cut.

The republicans all ran on creating jobs in 2010. And now they work for less jobs. Hope the public sees their lies, so that 2014 they are all put out of office.

Nearly everything else stays the same. Just cutting jobs. No wonder the economy is struggling. The republicans are working against the working person. Without a healthy spending working man, this country is nothing.

They are destroying the country.

If we simply laid off 20 percent of DOD workers then the employment rate would soar and ignorants woud say it was Obama cutting jobs that reduced employment but here we will have a fine test- the government will cut the amount it spends on wages and not have to pay them unemployment and therefore a clean calculation, and then we will see whether spending makes or costs jobs? Even Cantor knows, but now he will have to eat his own cr...p! As will all those other cut government to make jobs idiots. The sequester is coming not a minute too soon. I bet within 5 days republicans are negotiating tax increases when the simple truth becomes evident.
Sometimes republicans get what they ask for and it turns to crap. Come to think of it, everytime they get what they ask for it , it is crap. Boehner and Kasich - what better way to elect democrats even in such a heavily Gerrymandered state as Ohio. The only problems with these servants of the rich is, they are and now everyone will see more clearly.
