After scratching my head, trying my hardest to figure out what kind of new jobs are being created in the United States, I finally figured out one that probably created more then any other since 2008.
Rum roll please......Professional fund raiser. The Democratic Party alone must have created half a million of these jobs, never mind fund raising on things like, prevention of cancer in the big toe, and reach out to those women who are losing their hair.

Steve's barking; The United States as socialist state?
The Crazies definition of a socialist state ( not the true definition) were one takes money from the haves and redistributes to the have-nots. This being true I live in a have state that gives money to have not states like Mississippi, and Louisiana were their politicians complain about those who have not taking from the haves, go figure.
I live live n New York City, apace that sends more money to Albany then it receives back, the the politicians from upstate New York complain about the waisting of money being sent to New York City, how about them apples.

Steve's barking: At the needy (politician)
All politicians are needy.
They all have their hands out.
Their all on the dole.
They need to beg, borrow and steal to run their campaigns for office.
While there are some very rich ones out there who are self financed, they are so few and far between that statistically they don't count.
The next time you hear some politician complain about us peons who need assistance to get by in life, give them the middle finger salute for being such hypocrites.

Steve's barking; Is the new Europeon mindset making recessions deeper.
All countries go through business cycles.
It seems to me that through out the 20th century the business cycle recessions in Europe were a lot less sever then those in the states. The recoveries may not have been as great but the people didn't suffer as much.How can I say that? Money, those who were unemployed had money. The money to purchase goods and services from business that were having slowdowns. Were did this money come from? Good unemployment insurance. Government sponsored pensions and health insurance giving the population more money in it's pockets. Because of this, the Great Depression was so great in Europe.
Now the controllers of the European economies want to lesson the money in the people's hands, in the name of austerity. Europe trying to emulate the U.S. is creating real economic trouble for themselves. The central bankers must be crazy!

Steve's barking; NYC Schools 7 Students Pay a teachers salary
In New York City we pay our teachers less then 1/3 the money that our students generate for being in the classroom.
The Union contracts call for 22 students in a class and we all,know that max and perhaps then some are registered in the class
The numbers tell us that each student generates $20,000.
Let's go for the high number and say that we have in each class room a teacher that makes $100,000 dollars with a 40% fringe benefit equalling $140,000 dollars, bingo 7 students in the classroom pays
for the teacher.
Now using that $20,000 number we need to pay the principle and the principles staff. Now that may not seem like a lot of money but because it's multiplied by the number of classes in the school., We'll go under the assumption that one student in the class helps pay the principle and staff. The same being true for heat, light, toilet and cleaning supplies. One student in every class helps pay for this.
The custodial staff will draft another student multiplyed by the number of classes.
Now we have to pay for transportation, for argument sake we'll,say another student from this mythical class pays for that. Now what about supplies, we'll be really generous with that money and say a half a student pays for that, making that $10,000 per class for supplies, chalk, paper, pencils, and perhaps a computer.
Now let's add this up, 7 students in a class pays for the teacher. 1 student principle and staff, 2 students custodial staff and cleaning provisions. 1 student for transportation and 1/2 student for classroom supplies. That equals in dollars $230,000. Now the students in the class generates $440,000, what magic was created to make $210,000 disappear?
(1) Most teachers don't make $100,000 a year.
(2) The $20,000 a year per student is an average including special Ed. ( That's another question, does special Ed retard the development of those that it reportedly is trying to help?)

Steve' barking; Un Greece the pole
Maybe, just maybe the euro zone will benefit from a new government in Greece.
May be, just maybe the Greece government will force the rest of Europe to realize that the way Greece is being treated is the way Germany was treated after World War I. The major difference is Greece didn't lose a war. If one looks at Greece instead of inflation reducing purchasing power, one can say this is almost the same.
Deflation, the same as effect as inflation, who could of thought it.
Getting back to Greece and the Euro zone. If the Greek government could stop the austerity that has destroyed the purchasing power, and lend Greece the money so they can maybe buy some of the excess goods from the rest of the Euro zone. It's possible that there maybe a less of a recession that's facing the Euro zone now.
