Obama creates Russian jobs.
Bloomberg News
MOSCOW - General Electric has signed agreements with state-controlled OAO Inter RAO and Russian Technologies Corp. to produce equipment in Russia and help upgrade the country's energy and health care systems.
GE will take a 50 percent stake in a joint venture with power utility Inter RAO and Russian Technologies to assemble and sell gas-fired power generation units in the Yaroslavl region in central Russia, according to a Russian fact sheet distributed Monday. The Russian companies will hold 25 percent each in the venture, which was registered in the Netherlands this month.
The Fairfield, Conn.-based company will also hold a 50 percent stake in a separate venture with Russian Technologies to assemble and sell high-technology medical equipment. The venture will initially produce tomographic scanners, with ultrasound, X-ray equipment and MRI scanners to be added in the future.
The company has about 2,500 employees in 25 cities in Russia, it said while talks were being held earlier this year.
Blame Bush.

Re: Obama creates Russian jobs.
I believe it was in September or October of this year, that a Bill came up about outsourcing the jobs in America and the Republicans stopped it from passing.

When minimum wage was raised, we lost 1-2 million jobs. Many manufacturing jobs leave. When Obama shoved his healthcare bill down our throats, we stopped another 2 million jobs. Obama is funding oil drilling in Brazil. He stopped fishing and new drilling Golf of mexico. Obama has choked fishing off new england.
Want me to continue? He is a job destroying Pres.
The "green energy" drill is creating foreign jobs. The only period which shows a little sign of job growth was during the census. Obama killed 10's of thousands of jobs in car building.
Why are people excited about a Pres that creates unemployment?

Re: Obama creates Russian jobs.
But didn't we have a problem with jobs going out of the country, and high unemployment rate before President Obama took office. I don't believe President Obama is the "job destroying President" it must have been Bush.
Haven't you heard the news lately, the economy is getting better. Of course it went down in a hurry when Bush was in, and it will be a slow process to get it back up again. Check out Detroit, the car company is back, I heard that in the news about two months ago. Isn't that great. Look it is going to take more than two years to get it done, if the republicans and the tea party will work with the democrats, let's just see what the next two years will hold, then maybe it will be another 4 years for President Obama.

Good grief. Put down the kool-aide.
Your party was in control for the last two years of Bush's administration. It started going down hill then and when the democrat policies started to come home to roost....see Barney Frank for starters.
The little boost you're seeing now is due to the holiday hiring.
Oh...and now the republicans have to be willing to work with the dems now that they aren't in total control. Where was that sentitment went the dems were shutting out the repubs since BO took office?
good grief......

Re: Obama creates Russian jobs.
One by one. Yes we had jobs going out of the country. It is called worker shortages. We have no worker shortages now.

The BLS is a good source of job loss stats. Yes we are down 8 million since Bush and have had 6 million on top of that enter the work force.

We heard the economy was getting better every month since Obama showed up.

Detroit? You are on a roll. Saab is sold, Saturn shut down, Pointiac is gone, Chrysler given to the union and sales are at 11 million per year when they hit 16 million under Bush before crude went up. Detroit is hurting but Ford was left alone and did very well.Isn't that great.
Obama shafted secured bond holders to the tune of billions.

The stock market is still down 10 trillion in value and the debt is up to 14 trillion.
Obama is trouble and your claims seem to be based on pure emotion and contrary to fact.

Re: Obama creates Russian jobs.
KIA has a big plant in West Central Georgia, just in the last year completed, several hundred Americans are employed there, google Autonews and you will find more good news about car manufactures.
WASHINGTON..—..The number of people applying for unemployment benefits fell to its lowest point in nearly two and a half years, a sign that the job market is slowly improving. Applications..dropped by 34,000 to 388,000, the fewest since July 2008, the Labor Department said Thursday. The number of applications has either fallen or remained unchanged in five of the past six weeks. Fewer than 425,000 people seeking unemployment benefits signals modest job growth. But economists say applications need to fall consistently to 375,000 or below to bring down the unemployment rate. Applications for unemployment benefits peaked during the recession at 651,000 in March 2009. ( I believe President Obama took office on January 20, 2009, so this peak could not be on Obama, it must have been Bush)
By the way, I did COPY AND PASTE, from www.msnbc.com just this morning.
The debt is up, yes due to the tax breaks to the wealthiest 2% of Americans, which I did not agree with the compromise that President Obama did with the republicans in a closed door meeting. That will cost our country, but President Obama compromised to help 2 million Americans that needed unemployment. Sorry he caved in to the republicans.
I have the facts, it is you that don't have facts.
Have you heard in the news about how the republicans fillabuster everything that the democrats want to do to help the American people. Check out how many times that the republicans use the FILLABUSTER scheme to stop important Bill such as the H.R.5562, which would stop outsourcing jobs out of America.

What facts? You copy and paste (and thanks btw, for at least acknowledging that this time) a news site....try and find the facts from some un-biased sources, even government sources would help.
You want to talk FILLABUSTER? The dems are champs....they've used it more often then anyone else and now that the repubs are taking a page out of their book they want to change the rules.
Wow....really, put down the kool-aide, stop hating those who make money and wishing to see them have to give up more of what THEY EARN so your socialist utopia can have a few more years of life...and trust me, if you'll look to Europe you'll see what's headed our way if we don't change the democrat policies that have eaten us alive.

Annual car production down from 16 million to 11 million.
Is that good news?

And we have 250,000 new workers enter the workforce every month. 3 million a year.

I laugh when libs use last week unemployment claims as a sign of economy improving. Just wait 2 weeks and they silently get adjusted upward. Of course they should be down.. Holliday rush hiring of temps.

We have just begun giving 2 trillion in tax breaks to the wealthy? Not even close to true. We ran 1 trillion deficit last 2 years because of SPENDING. You seem to be clueless on taxes also.

Do you prepare tax returns for people? The government takes in 2.5 trillion and spends 3.5 trillion and some where they claim the explosion of spending was not the problem but tax breaks to the wealthy cause the spending.

Praise the Lord for fillabuster. The Dems would have spent another 2 trillion we don't have.
