Just what the doctor ordered: more working poor. Like we don't have enough already. These Rethuglicans know now shame. Seriously.

It's enlightening to see who shows up at the job desk looking for work. Every now and then you find a union worker that has maxed out his unemployment benefits, or gotten tired of manning the phone banks for the local Democratic candidate. Too bad nobody hires him, because frankly, he is unqualified for a real job.

Republican Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann: “we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely”

She sounds communist to me.

A mandatory-employment economy in which everyone is "guaranteed" a job? Reminds me of North Korea and East Germany.

If she were a true free-enterprise capitalist she'd embrace the concept that employment rates are dictated by the private sector and that full employment is effectively impossible, and certainly not by government dictate.

Why do all these people support all this for white people but do not care that Mexicans are denied these same basic dignities? Why would you demand minimum wage and other goodies for white people and snicker when employers simply avoid all that by hiring illegals?

Bachman has not suggest a mandatory employment economy. Where does this stuff get dreamed up?

Hyperbole and straw-man argumentation.
