In Iraq, the U.S. government has created a public works project to create 1.5 million jobs while no jobs program has been announced for New Orleans. Nearly half of the planned water projects and more than 70 percent of the electricity projects will be completed by the time the U.S. exits Iraq. In New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward, water, electricity and sewage services have not been restored. The Lower Ninth, a mostly Black and poor neighborhood, was hardest hit by post-[Katrina] flooding. Under U.S. leadership, the annual Iraqi income jumped from $500 to $1,200 a year; additionally, Iraqis have started 30,000 businesses in the last year while the New Orleans metro area has lost 220,000 jobs since Katrina and has created no new businesses.

Instead of moving on the economy the way the public wants the Republicans are selling ham/turkey combos. This GOP obsession in the Congress about budget deficits and the debt is not what the public wants to hear about. No one cares about the debt, and while closing budget gaps may have long term benefits for the economy, just like with health care, it doesn't do anything NOW and that's what the public wants. Polls have shown increasing distaste for GOP cost cutting measures that may balance the books of Washington but aren't improving the checkbooks of Main Street America. When House Majority leader John Boehner acknowledges that his party's proposed budget would cut about 700,000 jobs, essentially killing whatever minor recovery the nation might be going through he just shrugs his shou...
