    The only jobs he has cost are the american born white guys whose only skill set is mowing lawns.

    And actually, most of that began a long while ago.

    Now that I think about it, I haven't had an unskilled white guy mow my lawn since 1993 or so.

    So your boss at your lawn mowing job hasn't offered you full time yet?

    Upgrade your skills, and you'll get a better job.

    If you took Macro 101, you would know that reduced disposable income for a large group is bad for everyone. Fuck off.
    How large is your group? Do you have proof it is worse now than it was 8 years ago?

    Also, it is more complicated that you learned in Macro 101. If you took any 400 level Econ courses, you might know that.

    Pretty sure the group @PurpleJ is referring to is the fucking middle class. Just to let you know, although shrinking, it's still a pretty large "group".

    I'm working to get my 40 time down to a 4.2 cause I figure that will be extremely marketable.

    I seem to have hit a bit of a plateau.

    If you paid your lawn mowers better, they might be middle class, you cheap ass.

    Unlike other liberals, I believe the concept of a "living wage" is total bullshit.

    If somebody wants to be middle class, they need middle class skills.

    Mowing lawns isn't a middle class skill. It is for high school kids, burnouts, and recent immigrants hustling to improve their lives.

    Interesting.

    The "again" is Race's schtick.

    I'm seeing a pattern.

    You mean the guy that had the perfect chance to say it to Ty's face... but puss'd out?

    That is a winner right there.

    With winners like that, you guys deserved 0-12.

    Flagged for implying Race is a winner.

    Holy shit HondaFS.

    Everything about Obama's jobs and economic record points to it being shitty, from it being the worst recovery since WW2, there being 2X the number of part time employees now as there were in 2007 (yeah, cause the Obamacare impact would only start at the end of 2013...effin moron), to having 2X the debt, to having salaries decreasing for 80% of Americans, to having record number of people out of the workforce, to having 45+ million still on SNAP, to what was the new info this weekend...every female job created since 2007 went to an immigrant or something...sounds like a war on women now as well, etc. etc.

    And yet you are the dumb fuck that finds 1 article every so often from some moron (a Motley Fool blogger with an obsession with the marijuana industry now...really?) and uses that to validate your speed-limit IQ view of the world. Amazing.

    I'm guessing a hobby of yours is looking at shiny objects as well?

    Fuck you are stupid. You actually believe that shit you type?

    Not to mention your news source blasted obamacare saying it would crater jobs. Not sure what stats you have but any job growth is the exact opposite of cratering.

    How would you know ? You can't even conjugate a verb.
