Wonder why unemployment is going up in states like Ohio, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania? Why is it most of the states with rising unemployment are controlled by Republicans? Could it be because these states had a chance to help make unemployment lower with federal help and turned it down? Some examples are help with high speed rail programs, help with hiring teachers, fire and rescue personnel and infrastructure building and repair.

Just last week the Republicans blocked a bill that would have helped our returning war veterans to get g jobs when they come back home from the war zones.

If anybody wants to understand why unemployment is slow to come down in America,  look no further than the selfish Republican Party.
