Let me ask once again, what is the economic platform for Democrats? Is the above quote really a platform?

Complaining isn't a platform. What exactly is the Democratic economic platform? You say that the GOP wants to use tax cuts to grow the economy, fine. That is a plan. What is the Dems plan?

well, i can guarantee it's not another stimulus. this plan might sound like one, but i promise, it isn't. nor is any of it shovel ready, or a recovery/reinvestment act.

it's a dog chasing its tail. people are afraid to hire because demand is low, but demand is low because a lot of people don't have work. if people had work, there'd be more demand....
then there are the companies who need to hire, and can't find skilled workers. they still haven't hired an electrician here at the paper mill, and they have had ads running for close to a year-but no one who has applied has the qualifications.
