Republican Gov. John Kasich is trying to sell the people of Ohio some baloney. Kasich keeps saying that there is an economic "miracle" in the state. Since the public is not allowed to view the backroom, super secret "development" money being given to corporations, we have no idea how the money relates to real jobs. We've been advised to just take Kasich's word for it. Sure.
In the meantime, the job losses keep piling up in Ohio. Here is the latest from ODJFS Warn page:

The table above is only a partial list. To see the complete list of layoffs, go to the ODJFS Warn page.
Where are the planned layoffs from First Energy? Why haven't those job cuts been listed? (see AkronBeacon)
At this rate of layoffs in Ohio, Kasich could be creating a major economic disaster in our state. Yet rumor has it that Kasich has been thinking of running for President again. Considering his anti-women agenda (see previous posts), that should go over like a lead balloon.
Has anyone bothered to ask John Boehner, Pat Tiberi, Steve Stivers, and the rest of the Republicans in the House of Representatives where are the jobs they promised???? Are they more interested in opposing President Obama than helping you find employment?
