The unemployed are causing joblessness!
Environmentalists are causing Global Climate Change. Black people are the cause of Racism. Gays are breaking up strait marriages. All Muslims are Terrorists. Mexicans are the cause of high health care costs. Poor people are actually all lazy and on drugs.

I love Fox.

1. In a way we are, but not because we want to.
Because it is all one big circle of economics.

The workers lose their jobs. The unemployed have no money or assets to buy stuff. The monopolies decrease the amount of stuff they make and cut more jobs. The workers lose their jobs and the jobless can't buy stuff.

And round and round it goes, where it stops nobody knows.

2. That's right -- if people would just die when they lose their jobs ...
unemployment rates would be really low.

5. If the Teahadists and their Rethug/Teathug reps were to get their legislative way
Edited on Thu Aug-04-11 01:10 PM by Urban Prairie
The unemployed, poor, disabled, and aged, most certainly would perish as a result of "taking THEIR country" back, even if it meant that millions of their own sacrificial lambs were to become unintended casualties as well.

Those teabaggers who survived the resulting genocidal purge, would then just claim afterward that the rightwingers who died, had very regrettably but necessarily did their honorably "patriotic duty" for the future of "our" Christian nation.

6. The teahaddists
