DoucheBob wearing out his welcome on 8trackheaven ? YES !
interesting how DoucheBob is slowly getting on everyone's nerves on
8trackheaven- interesting thread where Boob spouts off about big cars (Boob is penniless and can't afford a 20 year old VW)- you just gotta LAUGH at these posts ! I guess Poodlebutt got sick of listening to Boob's incessant whining ! Received: by 10.11.53.63 with SMTP id b63mr228702cwa; Mon, 08 Aug 2005 10:51:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from 66.143.180.209 by g43g2000cwa.googlegroups.com with HTTP; Mon, 08 Aug 2005 17:51:49 +0000 (UTC) From: "Poodlebutt" To: "8trackheaven" Subject: Goodwill $.99 8 Track Tapes? Date: Mon, 08 Aug 2005 10:51:49 -0700 Message-ID: .com References: .com .com User-Agent: G2/0.2 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Case in point: I was doing my monthly topping off of the tank and some moron in a huge F-250 (with nothing in the bed, natch) was bitching to another moron about the high gas price ($2.53/gal) and lamenting that it wasn't going to get better anytime soon. He hops in, fires up the V-10, and ROARS around the parking lot, peeling rubber as he left. Good for what...5 MPG, tops? People like that need to be turned into Soylent Green. dB I am very proud to drive my 1992 Chevy truck in like fashion. I rarely have anything in the bed, moreover. I may be a moron, but I can plunk through Thucydides in the original Greek, and by God, if it weren't for folks ****ing gas like myself, there wouldn't be a noble cause for us to fight over in Iraq. So there. |

Such has never been the case, and, as usual, you're projecting your failures upon others. Do everyone on Usenet a favor...blow your brains out. Barring that, at least stay on your meds. All that anal sexual abuse you suffered as a child will NOT be mitigated by your fantasies and delusions being posted on Usenet. Get a grip, 'tardo-Nudo. |

Wasn't it you that said, not too long ago, that you "don't have time" to be reading 8TH? Guess that was a lie, too, eh? Charlie Nudo...liar, con man, fraudster and spammer extraordinaire. |

The Great American Jobs Machine
August 8, 2005; Page A10 We would like to take a moment to pause and marvel at the U.S. economy. Friday's Labor Department report of more than 200,000 new jobs in July, and two million over the past year, provides the latest bullish details. But the larger story of American job creation, and its causes, is even more impressive. First, more Americans have jobs today than at any other time in history. Second, over the past two decades or so, the U.S. has created more than 40 million jobs -- twice as many as Europe and Japan combined. And third, the U.S. has one of the lowest jobless rates of all developed nations. It was only a year ago that John Kerry was blasting the "jobless recovery." Lou Dobbs was flogging "outsourcing" every night on CNN as a sign of peril for the American workforce. That criticism now looks wildly off base. The 5% jobless rate today is almost a percentage point below what it was during the same stage of the business cycle during the vaunted "Clinton expansion." In the past 24 months 3.5 million more Americans have found work, which is the equivalent of a new job for every worker in the entire state of Indiana. Every single job that was lost during the bursting of the technology bubble and stock market collapse of 2000-01 has been matched by a new job, often in a new industry. As the nearby chart shows, the bottom of the jobs recession hit in mid-2003 -- and the recovery began at the very point that the Bush marginal-rate tax cuts were enacted into law. But just when it seemed there was reason to celebrate, a new study by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston warns that the low U.S. unemployment rate is a "false signal" of prosperity. Why? Because American workers are allegedly becoming discouraged in their quest to find work, and this surge in drop-out workers brings the real jobless rate to between 6% and 8%. The evidence for a surge in discouraged workers is that the percentage of working age Americans in the labor force has fallen from an all-time high of 67.3% to 66.0% today. If this seems worrisome, it isn't. The average labor force participation rate for the post-World War II period is 63% -- well below today's rate. Labor economist Diana Furchtgott-Roth of the Hudson Institute has thoroughly refuted the Boston Fed study. She finds that "most non-participants are out of the labor force by choice -- in school, parenting their children, or retired early." Since one's future wages and employment opportunities are highly correlated with years of education, this trend toward kids staying in school longer augurs well, not poorly, for the next generation of workers. Ms. Furchtgott-Roth also discovered that the decline in labor force participation for women is mostly a reflection of good economic times and rising incomes. With median family income now above $52,000 a year, more families can maintain a comfortable lifestyle with one spouse working rather than two. Ironically, for years critics of the U.S. economy have complained that Americans are "overworked" and that "it now takes two incomes to produce the living standard that once required just a working father." To the U.S. bashers, it is a sign of decline if more people are working, and it is just as bad if fewer people are working. Workers do get discouraged from finding a job when they are unemployed for a long stretch of time. But the percentage of "long-term unemployed" workers is about two percentage points lower than it was in the same stage of the Clinton expansion. In Japan and France the share of long-term unemployed workers is three times higher than in the U.S. Germany's rate is four times higher. If America's unemployed are "discouraged," French and German workers must be feeling absolutely suicidal. None of this is meant to ignore the reality that the rapidly evolving American economy has created turmoil for many workers. In particular, older Americans in declining blue collar occupations are feeling the sting of global competition. We are undeniably losing some manufacturing jobs over time (although manufacturing output has risen as a result of new technology and productivity gains). But those positions are being rapidly replaced with information, technology and service jobs -- most of which pay more than factory work and are less physically grueling. For a quarter century the U.S. has demonstrated an unrivaled capacity to transition into the information age with record numbers of jobs gained, not lost. And we have done so while absorbing millions of baby boomers, women, and immigrants into our workforce with no increase in unemployment. Part of the explanation for this success is that, especially compared to Europe, the U.S. has imposed fewer taxes and regulations (even though we have plenty) that make it onerous for employers to hire and fire workers. A unique feature of the U.S. economy is that Americans move in and out of jobs -- usually to rise up the income elevator -- at a rapid and persistent pace. This is the key to the Great American Jobs Machine, and it explains why Europe and Japan should be more like us, and not the other way around. |

YOU JUST GOTTA LAUGH- DOUCHEBOB GETS PUT IN HIS PLACE REPEATEDLY ON

The facts are that, since taking office, Bush's "recovery" has added fully 80% of the new jobs from the minimum wage service industry. Well paying industrial and technical jobs are being outsourced and offshorted, at the bidding of Bush's corporate handlers, at a record rate. The average wage in the US has actually DECREASED under Bush...a first since Herbert Hoover. |
