• The White House Jobs Forum

  
  Moonage Political Webdream — Authority: 421
  President Obama has decided the unemployment situation is bad.  He has a point.  It’s now as bad as it was when Reagan fixed Carter’s mess.  So, he decided to have a get-together with minds that he thinks will fix the problem.  Now, in my relatively simple world, the best way to cure unemployment is to get ...

• Jobs Summit Only Includes Obama’s Sycophants

  
  The Lonely Conservative — Authority: 575
  It looks like President Obama’s jobs summit is going to be more about spending money than it is about changing anything so businesses can start hiring. I thought he said he was open to all ideas, but apparently he’s only open to ideas from those who share his ideology.  The Washington Times  reported (via ...

• A ‘Job Creation’ Stimulus Is a Terrible Idea

  
  Big Government — Authority: 817
  I agree with Paul Krugman on at least one thing: the continued prospects for high unemployment in America is a bad thing.

• Gold rising is not a bubble; it is an omen of the future defaults of governments.

  
  InvestmentWatch — Authority: 157
  Gold rising is not a bubble; it is an omen of the future defaults of governments. Paul Krugman scoffed and derided analysts who said gold would rise to $1500. Apparently, the Nobel prize went to head and he stopped listening to reason or knowing history. To wit, since the 1500’s governments have been defaulting on ...
