- *OBAMA CALLS FOR MINIMUM WAGE TO INCREASE TO $9/HOUR
Last year's 6,977 word homage to jobs provided just over an hour's worth of applause-impacted rhetoric create much ado - more with what was not said than what was said. This year's 9pmET speech will likely be dotted with hope, and change, and jobs, and congress, and of course our union is strong... because the S&P is up 16% since last year's SOTU. But, by our measurement from Bloomberg's data from December 2011 (the last NFP before 2012's SOTU) to January 2013 (this year's last NFP) - Non-Farm Payrolls (NSA) dropped from 133.292 million to 132.705 million (or a 587,000 job loss).

"Government must work on behalf of the many instead of the few". He believes we think he is referring ignoring the few elites for the benefit of the masses. We really know he means fuck the civillian and their individual freedoms in order to protect the status quo. I think Spock issued those same sentiments as he put himself in a radiation chamber to protect the Enterprise crew. It sounds good until you are one of the few getting fucked over due to eminent domain and shit like that.
"From the few, according to their ability, to the many, according to their needs".

Oh, dear God...climate change.
The claptrap and retoric this man spews truly makes me ill.
He just said "climate change"... that's it, I cannot take it anymore!
Because consensus is science when one talks about the economy and the climate. Not so much for moon shots.
why is boehner without that green ribbon
"Executive actions" means "ignore the Constitution"
He basically just said he will, via Executive Order (Imperial Decree), circumvent Congress to stop Global Warming and anything else he damn well pleases.
Boehner looks like he's holding a chainsaw on his lap and has one hand on the pull cord.

Carbon energy threatens our planet but if you pay enough to the climate exchange, we will give you a voucher to pass.
Warmest weather on record. Of course record keeping out of some 4.5 billion years of earth's existance is statistically insignificant.
Cut energy use by homes. We've installed smart meters in order to control the temperature in your house because we know what you need better than you do.
+1000
Carbon credits are just the latest scheme of the .01% to steal what wealth is left of the 99%. Charge companies enormous fees for the credits, the costs of which are just passed on to the consumer - i.e. the middle class and poor.
Complete lack of enthusiasm even from his own party. Quite a shift from past years.
America aint buyin what you're sellin!
HoLee Phuk -Confucius-
Obama wants to cut wasted household energy usage with federal "assistance" which means energy rationing. SMART METERS FOR EVERYONE!!!

*Side effects include projectile vomiting, insomnia, sleepwalking, ashen appearance, droopy eyes, distended forearms, outbursts of rage, bloodshot eyeballs, possibility of voting more than once, calling people 'saviour', and a general overall unexplained euphoria. See your psychotherapist if conditions last longer than a few years, or if you have sudden urges to 'Unchain Django'.
"Efficient buildings and government support to help make this happen."
Bullish for Solyndra like black-hole contracts that benefit the crony capitalists - all at the taxpayer expense.
