The elections of 2010 focused of jobs, the GOP ran on a lack luster economic recovery from the Republican induced recession. They won the U.S. House and gained seats in the U.S. Senate. Now that they have won, they are very timid about talking about the economy.
The latest GOP jobs plan aims to increase thousands of highly skilled former government workers into the already saturated private labor market in an attempt to drive down middle class wages. Rather than increasing real demand, which is the base of a healthy economy, the GOP wants to build a facade by lowering Americans’ wages.
