... be careful ... the majority of this Congress has made careers out of defining cause and effect by avenging someone else in the most unflattering way to make themselves look like the hero.
... the Youngstown economy doesn't want a hero it wants to make things...the industrial revolution created jobs ... actual security for residents comes from the lack of want...
$350,000.00 divided by 500 = $700 per job. Stop the lies. Maybe this is why the bottom feeding politicians can't be trusted. They lie while doing simple math all the while pulling the wool over our eyes for their own political gain and benefits.
CCADTI- you hit the nail right on the head. Just like Nancy Pelosi said (on YouTube) that 500 million Americans are losing their jobs. That's ironic because according to the US Census, there are only 308 total Americans. YTown is a mess and will continue to be a mess. When Strickland took office, Ohio's unemployment was in the mid 5%'s. Now it is mid 10%'s. Simple math would say that is DOUBLE!!! But it is the Conservatives fault, right?
