Claims he created 1 million jobs in Texas. Yes jobs that whose main skill is asking me if I want to large size my combo meal. You go Rick.

seeric · 09-07-2011, 09:04 PM

They're all complete and utter imbeciles.

All politicians should be lined up and shot in the head.

StickyGreen · 09-07-2011, 09:07 PM

Rick Perry would sell his own mother for the right price...

Look into the Spanish company Cintra and other foreign companies that he gives deals to in his own state...

Chris · 09-07-2011, 09:10 PM

i think perry has done some amazing things here in texas but id be scared shitless if he ran the country

yes and nearly 100% of that is low paying jobs. Look it up.

PornoMonster · 09-07-2011, 09:23 PM

Lol who gives a fuck if they are low paying, they are NOT paying below min wage, and now the people are not sitting at home collecting welfare.
You make it sound like he made them take the jobs like slavery.

You would complain if he didn't create jobs.

YOU live on minimum wage and see if it can be done. And sorry people on minimum wage CAN collect welfare and foodstamps.

PornoMonster · 09-07-2011, 09:39 PM

What, would you be more happy with NO jobs?
Yes they can, but they collect MORE with no job.

So, your saying you would be happy if these people didn't have these low paying jobs, and lived on the system only??

Energy companies i.e. big oil expands due to the rise in the demand/price of oil over the last number of years.. people move to Texas.. they need more burger flippers, eduction and health workers to keep pace with the population growth.. 300k of the jobs were government jobs which they are now about to start cutting due to large budget shortfalls... Guess they're not getting enough tax revenue from all those burger flippers and all the low tax rates they handed out to big business.. Funny how that works... Perry had little to do with it all really other than the 300k government jobs. Oh.. And he used the Federal Stimulus money which he spoke out about, to do some stuff as well.. He was just along for the ride for the most part. I'm sure Texas's "bubble" will burst over the next couple years.

StickyGreen · 09-07-2011, 09:46 PM

They should ask Perry what he was doing at Bilderberg in the next debate.

It's a fair question, he was there afterall...

I'd be impressed if he (or any other blowhard politician) created some real jobs.

But it's not like I'm holding my breath or anything.

That is an interesting post, but it seems to be essentially arguing that if all the jobs were low paying jobs they would drag down the average wage. While that would be true, it then goes on to explain how about 25% of those jobs are in the energy industry. So it seems like about 25% of them are high paying jobs and then the rest are lower paying jobs and they balance out.

For example if 250K of those jobs paid $32 per hour and the other 750K paid only $8 per hour it averages out to $14 per hour. So the average is still in the ballpark of the state average.

Still, the wall street journal did a good story on this and pointed out that about 300K of these new jobs are government jobs and they show that Texas has increased the number of government jobs by about twice the national average over the last few years.

So it's not hard to hire a bunch of people on the government payroll, get some energy workers and then open up a bunch of fast food jobs and call it a great deal.

Once again the supposed small government republican grew the government and is now boasting about how great a job he did creating jobs.

here is the wsj story

Is creating 300,000 government jobs that don't appear to really be needed better than paying someone to sit at home on unemployment? Now instead of paying them unemployment and likely food stamps and other potential assistance we are paying them a nice big salary and great benefits to take up space and shuffle paper around.

PornoMonster · 09-07-2011, 09:59 PM

GregE. Yeah I know this, that isn't the point. I doubt he had anything at all to do with it. A good question for him tonight would of been what exactly did you do.

I looked at that as well and for the most part, he uses the stats to skew reality...

It takes 5 minimum wage jobs + 1 $111,800/year job to have an average wage of $15/hour.. so regardless, it still means that most of the new jobs are low or minimum wage jobs. i.e. 83% of the jobs would be minimum wage in that instance... Another example... 3 $10/hr jobs and 1 $63k/year job is around $15/hour.. so 75% low wage jobs.

StickyGreen · 09-07-2011, 10:31 PM

I'd be more proud of creating 500,000 jobs that paid $25 an hour than creating 2 million that paid $7.25. But that's just me, because unlike Perry, I have standards.

What is great is the sound bite. "While I was Governor Texas employed expanded by ..." or words to that say the same.

What happens when it's examined closely is how those jobs were created. And were the people who moved to Texas already employed so just a shifting of jobs?

The problem is there's only one way to create real jobs that will last. Build, create, produce more at home and sell it, preferably overseas. And no US politician has a clue how to do that long term. Same goes for UK. They are cutting spending to repay the debt and the jobs lost are not being picked up by private enterprise.

Less Government spending = Less jobs.
Lower taxes = Less Government spending = Less jobs.
Less borrowing = Less Government spending = Less jobs.

It's cheaper to keep them unemployed. Cost of wages, accommodation at work, equipment, management and then doing what?

that the fact all the jobs are min wage is a huge fail. that state should have tons of high paying energy sector jobs.

Sorry, wrong.. No politician has the political will to do what's needed.. The US is a me me me society where everyone is out for themselves regardless of whether or not the long term results of that end up destroying themselves. The "free market" is too ingrained in the US mindset that anything else isn't even considered. The US is all about getting out of the way of business and letting it do it's thing, even if that means fucking up the US. There's no "let's work together for the benefit if the US and each other" but instead it's every man for themselves.

The US needs manufacturing in order to stave off becoming a country of low paying service jobs. But the policies in the US aren't geared towards creating and keeping manufacturing, not to mention ensuring that there are no trade imbalances. How long has that been going on with China?

Germany is a great example of how the US could achieve what's needed but they'd never implement the sorts of policies that would be required.

Really not a fan of Perry at all.

raymor · 09-08-2011, 09:10 AM

I've lived in Texas for the whole of Rick Perry's tenure. Let me tell you what a typical Texan has seen.

The economy here is better than most places. There have always been jobs available even for unskilled workers at wages that are ok for our cost of living.

I bought a decent three bedroom house for under $100,000, so here an unskilled entry level job that pays $12.50 isn't too bad. Obviously you want to move beyond entry level, but a young couple can certainly pay a mortgage.

Most Texans I know see Perry as being a lot like Clinton - fairly competent as far as politicians go, and no more trustworthy than "slick Willy" Clinton. That makes sense given that Perry was Al Gore's campaign manager - Perry and Clinton run is the same circles and both act like used car salesmen.

Texas has done better through this recession than the rest of the country but we attribute that more to holding on to the self sufficient entrepenurial spirit of the founders rather than crediting the governor. Obviously low tax rates have helped keep businesses here and having no state income tax eases the burden on everyone. Both of those pre-date Perry, so he doesn't get credit for them. I guess he gets half credit for not fucking up a state that was already working well.

So basically Perry is what you'd get if Clinton campaigned as a conservative. Not my cup of tea. On the hand, what are the options? Obama said he doesn't know what he's doing, then proved it. Romney did mess up his state. None of the others are likely to be nominated. Between Perry and Barak Fail Obama, I gotta hold my nose and pick Perry.

Bachman and Palin need no comment. So we're left with honest but wacky Ron Paul, Huntsman, or Cain. Cain has shown leadership in his career, something Obama wouldn't recognize if it hit him in the face. Cain knows economics and what gets businesses hiring. The polls suggest that he doesn't know much about how to campaign.

Huntsman too seems like a good but so far hasn't managed to get the spotlight.

Athough I voted against Perry for governor and I'll vote against him in the primary, I'm afraid in 2012 I may have to vote for him and hope he doesn't screw up the county just like he didn't screw up Texas. A vote for Obama would be a vote for a depression.

Umm yes they can. There was even a big ordeal about Walmart the nations largest employer telling it's employees how they could get on welfare. Most of those so called jobs he created don't even play $10/hr, do you know how hard it is even to live on $10/hr in this country?

Think about it for a moment.. that's $400 a week "before" taxes.. So at best someone making $10/hr is bringing home $360/week or so. Now keep in mind most of those jobs he supposedly created aren't even playing $10/hr, so yea they are still earning poverty level income and can collect food stamps & probably even welfare depending what their housing costs are.

Smoke & Mirrors just like every other politician..

The biggest thing that likely helped Texas job growth was it's population growth. The cost of housing is low there compared to the other go 2 spots. It's common sense to figure out if people are moving into the state, that more jobs will be created.

I dunno what housing costs are out there right now but I went out to Austin a few years ago there were tons of houses under $80k in the suburbs like Round Rock and else where in the area (this was even before the bubble popped). I also checked out Dallas/Forth-worth which was cheaper but also more ghetto. IMO that's the biggest reason for the population growth and added jobs. It's like Florida was in the 80's, affordable to live at lower wages.

Finally minimum wage jobs help youth get into the workforce, as well as others who would be otherwise unemployable.

Great Post!

Seems the real issue these people have is they think Min wage is to low.

Everyone who posts about living on Min wage, try living on welfare, the other option.

I did speak to soon about them collecting welfare on min wage, I should of said, they do not collect as much.
Even soldiers in the military qualify for food stamps!!!

You'd have to be a complete idiot, moron, cretin to be in this industry and vote for Perry.

Just wait until he hands your ass over to God's new Inquisition for repentance.

Minimum, maximum or what ever wage. First thing to be done, is create the need for the workers, then the jobs appear.

Are they all going to be flipping burgers, selling in a mall or doing what?

I know I sound like a broken record but, the problem is shipping the jobs overseas.

I phoned Barclaycard last week, they fucked up my statement. Got through to India. Looked at the box of a WD hard drive I burned for a client, said made in Thailand. Go to a porn show and see where all the sex toys are made. Far East. In fact try and find something made in the US. Should keep you busy for a while.

After Obama... I lost interest in presidential politics.

Bottom line is this guy got into office on a platform of "hope and change" and then once IN office, acted just like a typical Wall Street puppet president and proved the cynics right who said it matters little who gets elected.

In so many ways... Obama = Bush.

So will Perry be all that different? We'll probably have some obnoxious hits on the cultural front, but basically huge corporations will be allowed to rape and pillage the rest of us just as they're allowed to right now. Banks will fuck us. Insurance companies will fuck us. Lawyers will fuck us. Just like now.

I had high hopes for Obama, and he let us all down big time. I understand that he can't get huge things past this Republican congress, but he could have at LEAST spent the fucking time TRYING and working on getting Americans used to the idea of tackling corporate overlords, Wall Street and big banks for the benefit of a healthy working middle class. Instead, he asked Wall Street how they'd like their government blowjob.

So bring on Perry... it doesn't fucking matter. We're fuk'd either way.

I guess the jobs he created had little to no impact on the economy, as Alberta is the top labour market in North America. http://business.financialpost.com/20...merica-report/

Yet another politician spewing bullshit. It doesn't matter what country or province or state they represent - everything that comes out of a politicians mouth is steaming, stinking brown ooze. If you think ANY politician is going to make your life any better, you are sadly mistaken.

Does Rick Perry have a porn problem?

Quote:

Here's an interesting tidbit from Rick Perry's past to keep an eye on. In the mid-1990s, the presidential candidate owned stock in a video rental store chain whose hardcore porn offerings drew the ire of conservative groups, according to a 2006 report on a liberal Texas blog. That item was resurrected by several liberal websites this week.

Burnt Orange Report, a site founded by a Democratic activist, reported in 2006 that Perry's 1995 financial disclosure showed he owned between $5,000 and $10,000 in stock in the company Movie Gallery. He was at the time state commissioner of agriculture.

Why is that significant? Because the now-defunct Movie Gallery, once a competitor to Blockbuster, was known for offering XXX porn rentals along with conventional Hollywood fare. (FireDogLake offers a useful sampling of titles here.)

You make it sound like he made them take the jobs like slavery. You would complain if he didn't create jobs. __________________ $6 a Month 4 Blade Razors, 4 Cartridges, Includes shipping!

raymor Confirmed User Join Date: Oct 2002 Posts: 3,745	I've lived in Texas for the whole of Rick Perry's tenure. Let me tell you what a typical Texan has seen. The economy here is better than most places. There have always been jobs available even for unskilled workers at wages that are ok for our cost of living. I bought a decent three bedroom house for under $100,000, so here an unskilled entry level job that pays $12.50 isn't too bad. Obviously you want to move beyond entry level, but a young couple can certainly pay a mortgage. Most Texans I know see Perry as being a lot like Clinton - fairly competent as far as politicians go, and no more trustworthy than "slick Willy" Clinton. That makes sense given that Perry was Al Gore's campaign manager - Perry and Clinton run is the same circles and both act like used car salesmen. Texas has done better through this recession than the rest of the country but we attribute that more to holding on to the self sufficient entrepenurial spirit of the founders rather than crediting the governor. Obviously low tax rates have helped keep businesses here and having no state income tax eases the burden on everyone. Both of those pre-date Perry, so he doesn't get credit for them. I guess he gets half credit for not fucking up a state that was already working well. So basically Perry is what you'd get if Clinton campaigned as a conservative. Not my cup of tea. On the hand, what are the options? Obama said he doesn't know what he's doing, then proved it. Romney did mess up his state. None of the others are likely to be nominated. Between Perry and Barak Fail Obama, I gotta hold my nose and pick Perry. Bachman and Palin need no comment. So we're left with honest but wacky Ron Paul, Huntsman, or Cain. Cain has shown leadership in his career, something Obama wouldn't recognize if it hit him in the face. Cain knows economics and what gets businesses hiring. The polls suggest that he doesn't know much about how to campaign. Huntsman too seems like a good but so far hasn't managed to get the spotlight. Athough I voted against Perry for governor and I'll vote against him in the primary, I'm afraid in 2012 I may have to vote for him and hope he doesn't screw up the county just like he didn't screw up Texas. A vote for Obama would be a vote for a depression. __________________ For historical display only.

Do all politicians take credit for good stuff that happens while they are in office and deflect the bad stuff, YES. I am only atticking the low paying part of the OP's statement. Guess Americans shouldn't eat hamburgers.... We can pay them more than min wage if a happy meal cost $20. __________________ $6 a Month 4 Blade Razors, 4 Cartridges, Includes shipping!

You'd have to be a complete idiot, moron, cretin to be in this industry and vote for Perry. Just wait until he hands your ass over to God's new Inquisition for repentance. He'll "let God sort it out." You can really have the opportunity to "Go Fuck Yourself". Just my opinion. Last edited by Redrob; 09-08-2011 at 01:34 PM..

Bottom line is this guy got into office on a platform of "hope and change" and then once IN office, acted just like a typical Wall Street puppet president and proved the cynics right who said it matters little who gets elected. In so many ways... Obama = Bush. So will Perry be all that different? We'll probably have some obnoxious hits on the cultural front, but basically huge corporations will be allowed to rape and pillage the rest of us just as they're allowed to right now. Banks will fuck us. Insurance companies will fuck us. Lawyers will fuck us. Just like now. I had high hopes for Obama, and he let us all down big time. I understand that he can't get huge things past this Republican congress, but he could have at LEAST spent the fucking time TRYING and working on getting Americans used to the idea of tackling corporate overlords, Wall Street and big banks for the benefit of a healthy working middle class. Instead, he asked Wall Street how they'd like their government blowjob. So bring on Perry... it doesn't fucking matter. We're fuk'd either way. __________________ YNOT v5 IS NOW LIVE! \| SEEN YNOT MAIL YET?
