Immigration Job Scam: What I Would Do If I Am The President

Immigration Job Scam: What I Would Do If I Am The President

Consequent to our critical criticism of the government of President Goodluck Jonathan, some have asked what people like us would do different if we were the President. This specifically in relation to our rejection of the insult to the Martyrs of March 15th, “unemployment day,” who the government in our view further debased the memories of and added pepper to the injuries of their families by…

Political promises aside, it will take at least 20 years for Greece to recreate the one million jobs lost during an economic crisis that saw the rate soar to a record 28 percent in a four-year period, the Labor Institute of the General Confederation of Greek Labor (INE/GSEE) said in its monthly report.

While Prime Minister Antonis Samaras said he’s creating a “success story,” and will turn around the battered economy this year, and has promised to create jobs, the analysts said otherwise, at least in terms of getting people back to work.

The rate for those under 25 has hovered from 60-65 percent but Samaras’ promise to put 75,000 of them to work by January came and went without another word.

From the Washington Post:

Some of the country’s best-known multi­national corporations closely guard a number they don’t want anyone to know: the breakdown between their jobs here and abroad.

So secretive are these companies that they hand the figure over to government statisticians on the condition that officials will release only an aggregate number. The latest data show that multinationals cut 2.9 million jobs in the United States and added 2.4 million overseas between 2000 and 2009.

 Some of the same companies that do not report their jobs breakdown, including Apple and Pfizer, are pushing lawmakers to cut their tax bills in the name of job creation in the United States.

But experts say that without details on which companies are contributing to job growth and which are not, policymakers risk flying blind as they try to jump-start the hiring of American workers.

The head of Obama’s jobs council, General Electric chief executive Jeff Immelt, said during a tour of a company plant in Greensboro, S.C., that firms should be ready to answer questions from the public.
