AFL-CIO Jobs Plan: More Government Borrowing and Spending
Wednesday, August 31, 2011
By Matt Cover

(CNSNews.com) – The United States does not have a short-term debt problem, just a “jobs crisis” that can be solved with greater government stimulus spending, according to AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka.

Speaking at a press conference on jobs Wednesday, Trumka called for greater government spending in areas like education and jobs.

Asked whether such spending was responsible in an era of record federal debt and deficits, he replied that “the United States doesn’t have a short-term debt crisis, it has a short-term jobs crisis.”

The head of the nation’s largest labor union organization then compared increased federal deficit spending to mortgages or the taking out of student loans, saying each was an “investment” in the future.

Trumpka's such a nice appearing and logical supporter of the USA.

He's right, thanks to barack we have a long-term debt crisis.

The jobs crisis is simply a sympton of the debt cancer we are saddled with. And hundreds of billions of dollars worth of regulations. And the ObamaInsurance Law.

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
