America’s oil bust
BRADFORD, Pa. (CNNMoney.com) — Six months ago this oil town in Western Pennsylvania was booming. You couldn’t find a worker to paint a house, let alone man a drill rig. The nearby oil fields buzzed with activity as high prices drove a production frenzy.
Now this boomtown’s bustle is as quiet as the surrounding late-winter forest.
but, but, but I thought we were supposed to be getting all kinds of “Green Jobs!” I thought we were going to grow jobs! Is it possible that Obama’s plan to “grow green jobs” might actually cause massive unemployment in industries that are not in favor? Is it possible that some areas of the country may actually have significantly worse unemployment because of Obama’s plan to “grow jobs?”
Elkhart Indiana, Saaaalute!
