You're mad because I cut your hours? It's the governments fault!

Am I the only one who sees this bullshit for what it really is?

Didn't say it was or wasn't the gov't's fault. I did say that the DOL's own numbers don't agree with the White House's numbers. And if you're suggesting that the White House's numbers are the bullshit, I would agree with you.

I think Americas business and governmental hacks are all full of shit and have ulterior motives that have absolutely nothing to do with what's good for the rest of us.

The problem is too many people----like you, for instance----see good guys and bad guys. I see nothing but bastards. And, until the sheep stop trying to choose which butcher they can trust and start standing up for their own interests, we are all going to continue to get screwed.

No, I think that's the problem.
