Structural Unemployment: What Came First, Chicken or Egg?

      Say this for Georgian businessman Bill Loomis he is broadcasting the plays. It's like an N.F.L team deliberately placed NFL cam while practicing their best play. Mr. Loomis has declared that he will not hire a single new worker till Obama is gone.

      Bill Looman, who owns U.S. Cranes, LLC in Waco, Georgia, explained that while “I’ve got people that I want to hire now,” he didn’t think he would be able to foot the expense “unless some things change in D.C.”

      Not only this but he has placed this promise on signs on all his trucks. This is what's so hard about the structural unemployment canard. It's never care whether it came first or the Republican Operation Tank the Economy.

    Certainly Loomis can't be accused of being a nut despite his refusal to take advantage of credits Obama wants to give business. Just check out his facebook page where, "The notion that President Obama’s economic policies preclude small businesses from hiring new workers isn’t the only ludicrous claim Looman pushes. A cursory glance at Looman’s public Facebook page shows he is prone to anti-Obama conspiracy theories. Earlier this month, he posted a false report that Larry Sinclair – the man who claimed he did drugs and had sex with President Obama – had died and implied foul play, writing “MAKES YOU WONDER HUH?” Looman’s page is also riddled with pro-confederate and anti-Muslim postings."

    "More importantly, Looman’s assertion that he would be able to hire more workers but for Obama’s economic policies defies reason. In the last few months alone, Obama has proposed giving major tax credits to businesses that hire new workers, including a $4,000 credit for hiring the long-term unemployed. Just this week, Obama signed a law to give additional tax credits to businesses that hire veterans."
