Nanh, I don’t lean right…not politically anyway…my politics are left…my philosophy is liberal…it’s just that sometimes the right is more liberal than it wants to admit…
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

My bad totally. I was thinking left and typed right. I have no excuse. It was a mistake so stupid I can’t believe I let it go though.

Just DAMN I need to proof read.

Having said that, I won’t. i never do. Sorry Josef, can you insert left where I typed right? Maybe I was thinking in British terms……….

Hiring workers in the US is a major hassle and it gets to be a bigger hassle every year. A while back Jay had an excellent post showing how recovery in the labor market after recessions gets slower and slower with each recession. It’s no accident, and no mystery why that is. Ever-increasing regulation, government mandates, and government/legal uncertainty (the Idiot Messiah stealing GM and Chrysler from their owners a prime example).

Want more jobs? Get rid of some government.

Unmentionable is usually an easy going, gentlemanly type fellow but he nearly goes through the ceiling over that one. In all appearance, if you know he’s Indian, he looks it, but if you don’t his are classically Jewish looks. He get’s infuriated whenever somebody makes some comment about not being a “real” Indian because of the way he looks, the profession he’s in, the neighborhood he lives in and what have you. “Do I have to show you my fr*kken CDIB card, Duk-sha-ni?”

Mick, if you think it’s the duty of businesses to create jobs in the US for the good of our country, don’t you think the country should do all it can to help businesses do that? How would you rate the Idiot Messiah in that regard? What wasteful regulatory burden has he lifted? What legal uncertainty has he removed? What unfunded federal mandate has he undone? What impediment to the export trade has he negotiated out of existence?

The Idiot Messiah is going the wrong direction on all these things. He’s a miserable failure.

Mitch Daniels is also someone I’d be interested in.
