Verse From Proverbs Fits Obama
Posted: October 4, 2012
A recent labor report states that 93,000 jobs were created, and the unemployment dropped to 8.1 percent.
The president said we need more time. Not so obvious was that the report stated 368,000 previous recipients no longer were eligible and dropped from the unemployment roles. They were still unemployed, but no longer counted. If this continues, unemployment will improve while the economy worsens.
People are quitting. Our government has given business no predictability because of rules and regulations. Minimum wage laws prevent the hiring of many entry-level employees.
No wonder I was concerned when I read Proverbs 24:21b: “And meddle not with them that are given to change!”
