It's a mystery to top Democrats

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

-R.A. Heinlein

Funny stuff. The Obozo administration--abetted by top Democratic congresscreeps like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Dick Durbin and others--constantly pontificate about the need to "create more jobs." But they seem to think the way to create jobs is to hire more gummint workers.

Are these top Dems really that clueless about where jobs come from? I really believe most of 'em really are. They've been living on the public checkbook for so long that they've forgotten (if they ever knew) that most jobs are created by businesses.

Having forgotten this, they constantly pass laws that make it increasingly hard for businesses to operate in the U.S.

And then when unemployment soars, they are...truly mystified.

Must be bad luck.
