Oh look, positive jobs numbers. So who does CNBC have on to push their narrative?

None other than hypercorporatist, meritocracy and laissez-fail advocate T.J. Rodgers, who's STILL blaming "government spending", who's STILL blaming the culture of the "Buffett Rule", who's STILL blaming the same old bullshit standbys all conservatives retreat to when economics just aren't going their way under a (supposedly) Democratic president.

How does anyone take this channel seriously, or worse yet, laughingly calls it "centrist" or "left-leaning"??

Man, if that's the station's idea of "The Left", I'd rrrrrrrrrrreally hate to see their ideal "Right".
