Pelosi: After 'productive' Congress, fight for jobs goes on

The results of last week's elections reflected the genuine frustration of the American people, who are justifiably angered by the continued high unemployment rate. While Democrats are also disappointed at the rate of job growth, it does not diminish what we have accomplished.

President Obama and this Congress were job creators from Day One, saving the country from the worst economic catastrophe since the Great Depression. The Recovery Act created or saved more than 3 million jobs, and America is moving forward. October marks the 10th straight month of private sector job growth.

But much more needs to be done. Democrats will strive to work with the new Republican majority to create jobs, strengthen the middle class and reduce the deficit. And we will always fight to protect Social Security and Medicare, health care reform and Wall Street reform.

(snip)
Though they elected a new majority in Congress, Americans did not vote for the special interests. They voted for jobs. Democrats remain committed to fighting for the people's interests, not the special interests.

2. a new WPA is what we need. The "Private Sector" is moving to India

Even burger flipping can be done with an internet-using guy in India using, here, robotic arms like those that weld cars. A surgeon overseas did a surgery here using robotic arms. EVERY job here can run to india this way.

The only jobs that will stay HERE... The only GOOD jobs.... are WPA and Co-op jobs. The Private Sector is moving to India.

Why would you ever accept ANY job shortage ... ever? Before the RW lied its way into power in the early '90's, Sweden had usually kept unemployment below 1%. We can also do that.
