Dems Help Constituencies, Not the Public at Large
What recovery?: Redistribution, not growth
(NH Union Leader) - Last Thursday, the U.S. Senate passed a $26 billion bill to subsidize teachers' jobs and shore up state budgets. The next day, the Department of Labor reported that the private sector created only 71,000 jobs in July, much less than expected.
It doesn't take a genius to see that the Democrats' so-called economic recovery plans are failing. All it takes is common sense, which is in short supply in Washington these days.
The bill the Senate passed last week is similar to the stimulus program that was supposed to spur long-term growth but had only a small, short-term effect and wound up mostly helping public employees and contractors. It directs money to Democratic constituencies, not the public at large.
