How high will our unemployment go since the dems are in office?

History tells us it will go near 10%.\n\nThanks Dems!\n\nOdessa? Unemployment is at 4.4% right now. It can't go down 10 - 15%. I can't believe the let people who know nothing about the issues vote.\n\n.

The unemployment rate is also lower now than it was during the Clinton years.  Many of the bashers are just ignorant, and are so blinded by their dislike, that they refuse to accept positivve news.  I refer to thse people as "poor losers".

They won't rally around a Dem.  They'll engage in a smear campaign of Democrats so that they can seize power at the next opportunity.  \n\nThey'll all return to work for the weapons contractors that they have worked for during the last 20 years.

Maybe you havent read Pelosi's views..unemployment will go up and so will taxes.  Watch the stock market too..\n\nAmerica is the superpower.  With that comes parenting..

Well now hear this from one old man lmao. \nAt one time the Democrats were for the working people, and the working people knew it.\nBut somewhere along the line they drifted off in a direction that leads them to not helping working class anymore but helping with the programs that only few can get.\nJust look at all there programs out there that the Democrats have make in all the past years and please tell me one that a working man or woman can get on.\nYes we need to help the poor but we do not need to have them lead us.\n\nSo I say the silent majority will win again, cause most of us are now Republicans.

I am dreading the coming few years. I was trying to save to finally purchase a home instead fo keeping on renting, but I will be in a crazy tax bracket this coming year and having the dems will most likely kill that dream for a few more years.

You're right, everything will increase.  What will decrease is the tax cuts and when it comes tax time, the tax credits for children will make people sick and sorry they elected those morons into office.\n\nAww, so many thumbs down.  Haha. shows how many ignorant ones voted the other ignorant ones into office.  Just in case you haven't been listening to the dems plans, they plan on stopping the tax credits, which by the way we (not rich) and many other families I know have benefited from.  Wake up and smell the coffee.  Oh wait, the libs must have a stuffed up nose 'cause they'll never smell the stink that they cause.

yes. I'm so sick of Bush and the Republicans trying to "scare" us all the time with there bullshit. So what if our taxes may go up...life isn't about money its about...theres more to life then just money...and democrats will give us hope and hope is better then having a lying corrupt government.

I am with you. the battle may have been lost, but the war still rages. I don't let ant party control how happy I am. The libs have a lot to live up to. The Dow Jones is the highest it's ever been and unemployment is at an all time low in 20 some years. Libs better keep the peace or they'll pay in 2008. They have to prove themselves now. People won't forget where their paychecks were at, especially if they get taxed more, which will definitely happen.

People of ALL races will lose jobs. Prices will rise, then they promised to raise minimum wage again. It will be a vicious circle of inflation!\n\n\nInstead, why not install a national Cost Of Living Adjustment (COLA) or all?

I think they will not gain at all.  I think that they may trade a few seats here and there.  I believe that the party has no message or plan to "fix" all the things they complain about.  If they bring their "A" game they could win big, but not until they replace Howard Dean.

It is the first domino falling.....\n....Raising the minimum wage is top of the agenda and there will be more.\nThe voices for Impeachment of both of the top two will likely follow....

President Bush has been dropping the unemployment rate with his new awesome minimum wage jobs. I'm with Rosanne bar. We need to create a maximum wage, I think that will create more job opportunities. Huge corporations will stop exporting jobs because the cheaper labor in other countries won't help them see more profit. They'll keep the jobs here and maybe pay decent wages. I'm talking 100 mill a year. I think that's plenty for one person.

I hope so, depends on how the repuglicans spin their failures in the last 5 years. Some people would believe any thing that they say, I for one have never been fond of supply side economics's It has never worked. Clinton's consumer driven economics got the budget in the black and it didn't take long for Bush and his goons to end all of that prosperity.

Not only will it include Canadians but it will also include thousands of additional H1B visas, which are high paying white collar technology jobs.  That's right, the republicans included this because it gets no attention at this time.  This Republican Congress and President will do whatever they can to reduce the wages of American citizens.  While the Democrats will tag along for the potential of a greater low-income voting block looking for handouts.\n\nThat is all that this is about, cheap labor for business and votes! Think again if you really feel anyone gives a damn about the immigrants or the integrity of our legal system.
