NY Times did a good set of graphics on the state of unemployment. Even
the simps should be able to comprehend...

Only an Obama voter could think that punishing small business, (the
part of the economy that always starts to hire first at the end of a
recession) with an 8% tax for not offering health insurance to
employees will encourage them to hire. Morons, this will encourage
small business to lay people off AND encourage other small businesses
to get by without getting bigger. Why grow if the penalty for growth
is an 8% tax and endless health insurance paperwork. It will also
keep people from even wanting to start their own businesses.
The "stimulus" offered by Bush was supposed to be used to buy "toxic
mortgages" but was instead funelled to Obama cronies with nearly no
such mortgages bought, they are still on the books. Now, Barney Frank
wants to force the insurance industry to use similar low standards to
force them to sell insurance to bad risks, a guarantee the insurance
companies will collapse.
