Flawed Logic

As I write this, the Dow is up 85.24. This increase in the Dow, according to Lynn Thomasson’s posting at (http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087
&sid=ac083YlUAaaM) is attributed to a slowing in the pace of job losses. This makes us want to ask, what are they thinking?

The economy lost 216,000 jobs in August which was less than the experts estimated. I’m sure these 216,000 individuals and their families find comfort in the fact these job losses are less than expected. However, I never cease to be amazed at the logic of these so called experts.

In my recent physical my doctor recommended that I loose 10 pounds. However, when I heard this report on the economy I think I will use their logic the next time I see my doctor. What I plan on doing is to keep on eating like I always have. I estimate that by doing this I will put on 10 pounds. However, if I only put on 8 pounds, I will tell my doctor that I have good news. Instead of putting on 10 pounds like I thought I would I only put on 8 pounds which means I actually lost 2 pounds.

It’s time to throw these idiots out of office. No wonder the country finds itself in the condition it is in today with idiots like this in charge. We have a congressional election in 2010 and a presidential election in 2012. I urge everyone, especially those currently out of work, to become involved and support new leadership in these upcoming elections.

We need leadership that can think intelligently. Job losses hurt the common man. People who loose their job cannot spend money which causes additional economic decline and additional job losses. Vote for individuals in these next elections that favor stimulating the economy by cutting taxes so companies will have additional capital available to expand their businesses and create new jobs. It’s not bad for these businesses to make a profit for profitable businesses expand and create new jobs.
