 Those numbers can add up quickly.

As you can see, layoffs are still happening in the state despite Kasich's creation of the super secret JobsOhio. While corporations get money for jobs in Ohio, the public is shielded from information on any transactions.  

Plunderbund has even more details on Kasich's JobsOhio and the miserable failure it is.


>>>>> Speaking of failure..........

Speaker of the House John Boehner is a failure. Boehner is bowing to the far right of the Republican Party. They've managed to try to repeal the Affordable Care Act 37 times, pass restriction abortion bills again and again, and continue to fight against jobs proposed by President Barack Obama. Can Boehner, Cantor, and Paul Ryan come up with 3 successes they've had that has improved American lives?
