[Skidmore]

2. She's now telling us that if we bought only products made in the USA

they would be more expensive and that making stuff overseas makes more jobs over here.

[Skidmore]

3. "We're prventing good oil and gas exploration jobs here" when we

buy solar panels from China, sez Diana Furchtgott-Roth. No mention of possibly producing those panels here.

[Skidmore]

4. Now the "increase in minimum wage" is being cited as the reason for no increase in

jobs in the nation.

We need to get on the phone and talk to her to get labor's positions across. This is the sort of thing we did before 2008. Let's get back to work.

[Skidmore]

5. The unemployed "lose their networking skills and get used to sleeping in in the morning"

so we need to create jobs, sez she.

6. Give her a break. She's just flirting with Rand Paul.

Libertarians are so solipsistic, it's not easy for them to get a "date".
