BUSH
EMPLOYMENT PROMISES - UPDATE
BUSH
EMPLOYMENT PROMISES - UPDATE
08/07/2004 12:14 PM

As
promised in February, here's
an update on the US employment data. After a lot of ballyhoo in recent
months, the US Department of Labour has released terrible July
employment growth data, and quietly revised downwards the employment
data for the previous two months. The latest 'preliminary' (subject to
additional revision) numbers for June and July are 131.24 and 131.27
million respectively. Even assuming a resumption of the very modest
increase rate in the Spring, employment is unlikely to reach 132
million by the end of the year. This compares to 132.4 million when
Bush 'took' office four years ago, and 135.3 million promised last
January (though by one interpretation of his mangled speech, he was
really only promising 132.5 million). This would make Bush the first
president since the great depression to record an absolute loss in
total employment during his administration.
In order just to match the 150 thousand new entrants to the labour
force each month due to population increase, employment should be
rising by 1.8 million per year, and should now be nearing 139 million.
What's worse, the quality of
the new jobs created has been exceptionally poor. Rather than creating
high value, knowledge-intensive jobs to replace the jobs offshored to
lower-wage countries, nine out of ten of the highest-growth sectors of
employment are low-wage, low-expectation jobs (food service,
secretarial etc.) Most growth continues to be in part-time and
temporary jobs. No surprise that so many have just given up looking
for
work. So much for trickle-down economics, and the promised stimulus of
Bush's tax giveaway to his rich friends.
Yet a recent AP-Ipsos poll reports 46% of Americans 'approve' of
Bush's handling of the economy. Who are these people and what have they been smoking?

Who would be more fun to go out for

Who would be more fun to go out for
beers with, Bush or Kerry?
12/17/2004 06:40 PMI read somewhere that political scientists say that Americans pick
their presidents by who they would feel most comfortable sitting down
and having a beer with. I watched the debates last night and thought
about what a beer test would reveal about the candidates. Going out
for a beer with Kerry would probably be a bit of a bore. He gave all
the signs of being a serious policy wonk, a Clinton without Clinton's
ability to connect with people, but thankfully also without Clinton's
pathological need for approval. He would probably spent the evening
telling you about his ideas for health care and something esoteric
like "The New Energy Economy", and would probably forget to drink his
beer. It would be an early evening, and it wouldn't be the kind of
thing I would do to relax. Going out for a beer with Bush would
probably start off a lot better. He would be charming, backslapping
and solicitous of your well-being. However, he had that look and
manner that tell you that after the second beer, he would start to
change. He'd start complaining about how everybody was against him at
work, and the company had it in for him, even though he hadn't done
anything wrong. After the third beer, he'd get up to go to the
bathroom and he'd start a fight with someone who "bumped" into him at
the bar. When you refused to join the fight, he'd depart in a huff,
leaving you stuck with the bill, a furious bartender, and worrying who
he was going to kill while driving in that state. It might not be the
best set of choices, but I'll take the bore any day....
Bush on Kerry: He's Not Lying
Bush on Kerry: He's Not Lying
08/27/2004 01:27 PMNY Times: Bush Dismisses Idea That Kerry Lied on Vietnam. President Bush
said on Thursday that he did not believe Senator John Kerry lied about
his war record, but he declined to condemn the television commercial
paid for by a veterans group alleging that Mr. Kerry came by his war
medals dishonestly.
At last the president does the
right thing, at least part of it.
But if he really believes Kerry is telling the truth, it's strange
that he doesn't say what inexorably follows: that the people who made
those ads should stop their lying.
Anyway, congratulations to Bush for showing some common decency.
