Good idea, but be careful about running afoul of stalking and trespassing laws. Particularly in places like San Marino which have their own police force and aren't under the jurisdiction of the very understaffed LAPD.

stop it... seriously

I'm rich. OMG, what if someone shouts at me?

Minimum wage jobs + government jobs = 120,000 new jobs a year in a state where you need about 180,000 to keep unemployment down, which is why unemployment has risen in TX.

The only thing that has prevented Texas from 12% unemployment is that there are stringent borrowing rules as per home ownership (fancy that, regulation) and lots and lots of government pork. While railing about the evils of DC and stimulus, Governor Pray For Rain scooped up 6.6B in direct state aid, the third largest total in America.

If by "successful", you mean, ''entirely reliant on the government", then you are accurately describing almost every rightist businessman. And if you consider yourself successful, well, shit--that's hilarious.

Dang, you are majorly dumb, ain't ya?

Perry's jobs record in Texas is way, way, way over-inflated and worse, many of the jobs there were just poached from other states with the same breaks that have left the state 25 billion dollars in deficit.

Anyone that sees that idiot as some kind of role model should have bad techno aimed at them all day too!

Texas can have them. Minimum wage worker = Medi-Cal expense.

However, that's interstate commerce--tell us again how one might "poach" outsourced jobs back from India?

Moving low paying jobs around inside the US is no different than 3 Card Monty.

Dumb as a sack of potatoes.

It's not just Wall Street or the Tea Partiers we have to worry about. Watch out for this "bait and switch" game by the Democrats~

"..it’s now promoted by the White House that cuts in Medicare and Social Security are axiomatic, while Obama plans to make hay on the tax-the-rich campaign plank until the time comes to hunker down with Boehner and face the Republicans in all their righteous fury, just as he did with a winning hand on the debt ceiling fight at the start of August, and… blink. He always does, seemingly drawing perverse strength from polling data insistently disclosing that support for “entitlement” cuts commands a scrawny base of support of about 15 per cent among the voters Obama needs." [...]

"Meanwhile the liberals, doing their best to put a positive spin on the Jobs bill proposed by Obama in his speech to a joint session of Congress on September 8, are slow to appreciate – protectively reluctant to point out — the fact that his proposed tax break for the masses and the employers, lowering the 6.2 per cent tax on Social Security – welcomed rapturously by the Republicans — is a carefully planted depth charge. It lowers revenues into the Social Security fund, thus giving ammo to the saboteurs across the spectrum from Obama to Perry who say Social Security is in crisis."
