Well then, please do tell.No, but I'm sure it can be predicted if one had a modicum of gray matter.
Funny that you'd post that after defending the OWS stance against reporting sexual assault to police. From your source:
No mention of getting the rapists counselling there, let alone making it the sole action to be taken.
We could turn it around though, why are Democrats so unwilling to cut spending?
All of that should be known. So-called experts should be on top of this. If not, they are not doing their job.

Given that large portions of the bill haven't been implemented and are subject to who the government/agencies interpret the bill when they are implemented the best you can do is estimate and the range is pretty big. Not sure how you can expect any 'experts' to do much better when the government can't even tell us.
i would love to see a ton of these protestors get the living shit beaten out of them by the police
Hmm, that sounds like a cop out to me. Companies are looking for a government scapegoat to blame their lack of hiring. The reality is that the demand is not there.
No, but I'm sure it can be predicted if one had a modicum of gray matter.
So which is it, champ? Here I gave you full marks for "a modicum of gray matter" and you seem to be letting me down. Could you answer even 4 of 6 definitively as the laws will stand in 2014? Your complete lack of an attempt (for that matter, a complete avoidance of the problem entirely) kinda says to me "no". It then follows that you have no basis for your class warfare bullshit. Imagine that.Thrasher said:All of that should be known. So-called experts should be on top of this. If not, they are not doing their job.
It's a very serious problem with a consumer-based economy, particular one based on service industries. You really run into a chicken/egg problem. Crappy economy, people get scared for their jobs. Scared people don't spend. Economy gets worse. Business cuts jobs. Unemployed people really don't spend. Economy gets worse. Business cuts more jobs.Like most things, it's a little of both. It's a real concern, but it's also an easy excuse. There are plenty of cases where there is demand, but companies are afraid to hire, though I'm sure there are plenty where there just isn't much demand either.

On the other side, workers simply don't want to work. Unemployment benefits have been extended for so long that people get out of the habit of working.
Really? I have a hard time believing that. That's just rightwing propaganda.
I think they are more concerned about not being able to pay monstrous amounts to their top execs. The large debt actually is keeping interest rates low, and more money in the pool.
I'm well aware that you're not an expert on this, and quite honestly I wouldn't expect you to be so. Obamacare is such a trainwreck that nobody really knows what it means, which is exactly what I said is hampering business in the first place. You, on the other hand, were extremely quick to identify a different root cause of it all (greed of those evil corporations, doncha know). By your own admission, you lack the background to make such a determination (just like the rest of us, including business), but you're foaming-at-the-mouth certain that it MUST be some sinister plot to enrich the rich.Listen asshole, I am not an expert on this. For fuck's sake. But the people who are paid to be the experts should be able to bound the problem. Not doing so or trying is just a lazy copout.
This probably supports my assertion that companies are being too picky more than anything else.In its recent study “2011 Talent Shortage Survey Results,” Manpower reports that employers in the Americas are having more trouble filling jobs this year than the global average, due to lack of available talent. The figure (37%) is the highest since the start of the economic meltdown in 2008. Frankly, with US unemployment in October at 9% (13.9 million people), that assertion strains credulity. Hardest jobs to fill? Top four (in rank order) are: Technicians, sales reps, skilled trades workers, and—you guessed it—engineers. The irony is that at the same time engineering jobs are going begging some companies are laying off engineers.
