What's Better Or Worse With A Methodist Pastor, ObamaCare, And Poverty

    A Pennsylvania minister has been defrocked because he performed a legal, gay marriage in Massachusetts. Sex organs, not love, ruled.
  ObamaCare's employer mandate to provide insurance for full-time employees has encouraged the creation of part-time jobs. For most of 2013, the overwhelming majority of jobs added to the U.S. economy have been part-time jobs. Gallup has a payroll to population ratio which is the proportion of the Americans working full-time. In year 2013, this ratio has dropped 2% to 43.8% of the working population that holds only part-time jobs. Under Obama, we have shown you in previous posts that the poorest are getting poorer, and  people are living less long for the first time in American history. Now we are showing you that full-time jobs are decreasing under Obama. It is time to be looking for a president who will grow the economy and our health and happiness instead of wrecking them. We need a president who wants to take care of the poor and disabled but also is, unlike Obama, friendly toward business. Productivity in businesses is the only way to make money; Obama just prints it, worthless dollar after worthless dollar.
  The good news is that a recent Columbia University study has found that the existing benefits to the poor and the tax programs for the poor have reduced America's effective poverty rate by almost half- 40%- since 1967. The poverty rate has been reduced from 26% in 1967 to 16% in 2013. This is a huge accomplishment and should be recognized by all because all of us either profited from these programs that our taxes paid for or paid the taxes for them. Many did both. Job well done, Americans!
