The graph on US LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION RATE is a "Gee Whiz" Graph. Which is dishonest as we teach in our Statistics classes. Start the graph from zero and those whom are ignorant will get a different visual impression from the one presented here.

It also doesn't show how much is due to retirement of baby boomers. They are going to skew any data.

I think they are considered disastrous because of the nature of the cuts and not the amount.

that last one is pretty impressive. It shows that the Fed is not spending as fast as the GDP is growing. In effect the gov't is shrinking and we as a people are getting shortchanged by someone that doesnt like paying taxes

has anyone not noted that gov't spending without fail until the Clinton years was pretty much linear. Also note that the Bush years saw that line reestablished and increased. The big problem people have is with the number $3 Trillion. If you understand that the number really is the same as it always was but the Fed is working with a much smaller work force than ever. The number of federal employees per citizen is also at an all time low. People seem to forget that there are 300+ million people living in the US right now. To assume fewer and fewer people will be able to keep up with an ever increasing population is just plain ignorant

If that was a stock price, you would next expect to see it in reverse, the expiration of the growth phase.

I take it back.
It's not even a blog.
It's just a repetition of news stories, from all outlets.

He is leading this country into it's greatest decline in history.
And the b****h is rather smug and happy about it.
He got away with it all.
Stealing the election and all.
Giving the country to the illegals and all.
Next stop, taking the right to our guns and all.
After that......
Well, you know what is coming after that.
Billions of murdered civilians can't be wrong.

Mark, could you please explain how Obama "stole" the election ? Stealing infers some sort of illegal method or tactics were used. From my remote corner of the world it appeared that Obama got more votes than Romney because his policies appealed to more voters than Romney's did.

Isn't that what elections are all about ?

As an ignorant Aussie, it seems to me that with 14 million plus illegals in the US some sort of compromise has to be made. Forming that many people into a column and marching them back over the border at gun point is just plain impractical (and what would you do with those who aren't Mexican ?). Even the GOP is realistic enough to admit that.

Finally where do the "billions of murdered civilians" come from ? The entire population of the US is only 300 million. Even if you envisage Canada and Mexico being wiped out at the same time and add the civilian deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan, the numbers still don't add up to even one billion.

T.A.

We are all about to be OWNED outright by the Chinese, kids.

Call me nutzo.....OK.

Witness this.

3 of the most recent bailouts with billions of our tax dollars are going to....China.

U.S. government funded and nonetheless bankrupt battery maker A123 will be Chinese. China’s Wanxiang emerged as the successful bidder in December. All the deal needed was U.S. government approval. The deal has been approved, says Reuters. Not Fox News, kids. Reuters.



China’s Zhejiang Geely Holding Group is favoured to secure a majority stake in troubled U.S. electric car maker Fisker Automotive, according to two sources familiar with Fisker’s search for a strategic investor or partner.

Fisker, the Anaheim-based plug-in hybrid maker, is currently weighing bids from two Chinese auto makers: Geely, the owner of Sweden’s Volvo, and state-owned Dongfeng Motor. Not Detroit, kids. China. Another half a billion tax dollars gone into the toilet there.


And GM? Watch this clip. Their CEO touts proudly their move to....not the troubled streets of Detroit........
Freaking CHINA.

80 Billion going to...you guessed it...CHINA. And he seems PROUD of this????
Yeah, he's proud of it....and he took home a 7.7 MILLION dollar salary last year.

This is all under the eyes of our wonderful watchdog and patriot, God Obama.
And meanwhile, he is siphoning billions of our tax dollars off to give to illegals who have not a single iota of birthright to them, wants to raise the minimum wage to further tax the middle class, and then tells you with a straight and rather smug smile....and this is a direct quote.

Look, even I can't write this good.....
My kids are alright: Obama 'not worried' about daughters Malia and Sasha... even if the U.S. fails

"Our kids are going to be fine,’ President Obama, 50, said last night. ‘And I always tell Malia and Sasha, look, you guys, I don't worry about you.

'I mean, I worry the way parents worry - but they’re on a path that is going to be successful, even if the country as a whole is not successful."

Even if the country as a whole is not successful??????????? WTF exactly is he trying to tell us?

And some of you would tell me I need to get a grip?

I would not buy a used freaking car from this man.......

As one of the 'outspoken', I suspect I'll be one of the first to fall.
If one day my account goes dark, lock your doors, kids.
You won't be able to label me a crackpot then.

I have both faith and fear that one day soon, a 'well armed militia' shall take this country back by force. As the second amendment gave them the right to.

The founding fathers, in their fear and wisdom, gave the populace that right to defend themselves against the dictatorship they had escaped from, and any ensuing after that.

The time is coming, folks. It really is.

O I believe him but as I say even with, 42 cents out of each dollar spent will be

borrowed.

he made a deal 2 years ago for his tax increases by offering the sequester

now he is crying fowl on his own deal?

even with the sequester 42 cents out of each dollar spent will be borrowed.

"Fowl" is a bird.
I believe you mean "foul".
So, you do not believe him when he says something to the effect of, "The sequester was proposed to force compromise. We never dreamed things would actually get this far."
