Pence Statement on Unemployment Numbers
Congressman Pence (R-IN) once again has called on Democrat leaders for a new direction with the economy. Will they listen or will President Obama call another Summit this time on the economy so he can lecture Republicans, Democrats can tell their sob stories, and Republicans will give the facts and ideas once again? We have a hunch we have seen the last Summit as Obama didn't like being put on the defensive, but we believe one on the economy is warranted. Then the American people can once again see the difference in the two parties in Congress.
There are 7.5 million people out of work in this Country and yet the Democrats continue down the same path on Obamacare which will add billions to the deficit, cause some doctors to leave their profession which, in turn, lays off more people, and the Obama Administration will add to the bloated Federal payroll to handle the new duties of the Government in Healthcare.
For years the Federal Government has tried to trim the Federal payroll, but since the Democrats took over it has grown by leaps and bounds. Now the Obama Administration is looking to put private business out of business to bring various business sectors in house like healthcare, automobile (two companies already owned by the Government), Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), banks, etc. There is also some talk of oil and gas takeover by the Government -- is Obama trying to nationalize our industries so everyone works for the Government? It is a scary thought but we are part way there.
What can we do? Keep after our elected Congressman and Senators and ask the more moderate Democrats to join our JUST VOTE NO! against Government run healthcare and quit adding federal jobs. The Stimulus was not to grow the government with new people but to help private industry, but the result has been to add more government employees at all levels and in some cases states used the money to keep government employees. The 'stimulus' should have been named 'Government Jobs Stimulus' which would have been a better description.

Pence Statement on Unemployment Numbers
Calls on Democrat Leaders to Embrace New Direction for Economic Recovery
Washington, DC -
U.S. Congressman Mike Pence, chairman of the House Republican Conference, issued the following statement today after the Department of Labor announced the loss of 36,000 jobs in the month of February:
"The economic policies of President Obama and Speaker Pelosi have failed. It has been a year since Democrats in Washington said they would keep unemployment below 8 percent by passing a $862 billion stimulus bill. Yet today unemployment hovers around 10 percent, 36,000 jobs were lost last month and more than 7.5 million jobs have been lost since Democrats took control of Congress three years ago.
"Today's jobs report confirms once again that the so-called stimulus has failed. The American people know we cannot borrow, spend and bail our way back to a growing economy. It is time for the Democrat leaders to embrace a new direction for economic recovery-fiscal discipline in Washington and across the board tax relief for working families, small businesses and family farms."

Poll: Majority of Americans Support Cutting Size of Government Workforce
We agree with the outcome of this survey 100% and why we have been trying to call attention to what is happening at Warner Robins Air Logistics Center, Robins, GA, where they are going gangbusters to hire engineers, etc. who they plan to utimately replace the 67 businesses currently working in Automatic Test Sytems today. These new hires will be used to do manufacturing in-house like a contractor except with their overinflated salaries and benefits of civil service.
These new Civil Service hires are also going to be used to replace test equipment that doesn't need replaced in order to establish the Robins Empire for Automatic Test Systems to the tune of well over a billion of taxpayer dollars that will be wasted before it is said and done. How can an organization inside the Air Force be a contractor? Who gave them the contract and who will oversea their work? Pretty good if you can get it -- give yourself the contract, hire more government people, put private business out of business, and everyone has to come to your organization. One slight problem they don't have the expertise but they moving ahead wasting our tax dollars anyway.
It is time the Air Force was cutting their civilian work force not increasing. Is anyone listening?
More to come on this!

The Feb. 5 poll also found that 51 percent support cutting pay for non-military government employees, while 32 percent opposed the idea and 17 percent are not sure.
Roughly three-fifths of Americans (59 percent) believe government workers earn more money than the average taxpayer, according to the poll, while 15 percent believe that they do not, and 26 percent are undecided.
Rank-and-file representatives in the U.S. House receive an annual salary of $174,000, while the Speaker of the House receives $223,000. The majority and minority leaders both claim $193,400 a year.
