Try as he might and promise though he does, Obama’s attempts to lower unemployment in the U.S. have proven politically impotent. On the one hand he spends recklessly, $800 billion-plus in stimulus funds during his first months in office alone, and on the other hand he expands the role of government (which also expands its size) via Obamacare and myriad other things.
Throughout all this, unemployment has only increased.
Thus, to remedy the mess he’s made, Obama recently pulled together an audience of public-sector employees on the White House lawn and delivered a speech about how spending another $450 billion (via the American Jobs Act) is finally going to swing open the doors to employment for millions.
