NEW YORK NIGHTS

We’re so sick of everyone dancing around the truth about the poor jobs numbers every month.

Here’s why the economy is bad: The economy is bad because the Republicans have put all of their efforts into keeping it bad! When private jobs have gone up, Republican-led state governments have laid off public workers. When President Obama has presented coherent jobs bills, Republicans have filibustered them.

The sad reality is that the Republicans want the economy bad, they want Americans out of work. Just so they can get back into power and continue to enrich the wealthy at the expense of the middle class. It’s the exact opposite of the “American Dream.”

Our economy could be growing and lots of Americans could be finding solid jobs, and hope, but Republicans have been united in fighting tooth and nail against it! Remember that in November.
