Wow.

So much for tax cuts creating jobs. Well, they did create the jobs in the derivatives markets, enabling the feeding frenzy.

Would it make one bit of difference to you if I laid out the employment numbers for the past five years? Of course not. Anybody else is welcome to check the data themselves. There are still more people employed right now than there were three years ago, and about 2.5 million more people than at the peak of the Clinton "boom."

Jobs in the derivative markets? Is that your new reality? Maybe you forgot the standard meme here when employment numbers were consistently rising before: "Those aren't GOOD jobs. They're cheesy jobs that don't count." Of course, maybe derivative markets pay minimum wage.

You're not even self-consistent. You re-invent your views from moment to moment, forgetting not only what others have said, but what you've said yourself.
