Wargotz Asks Mikulski "Where are the jobs?"
Latest unemployment claims show Mikulski failures
Annapolis - Yesterday, the Labor Department said initial claims for unemployment insurance rose to a seasonally adjusted 500,000 people. Economists had expected that number to drop not increase. This is the highest level since November of 2009. This information comes on the heels of the Labor Department's report of 131,000 jobs lost in the month of July.
"Where are the jobs Senator Mikuslki?" Eric Wargotz M.D. asked.
Eric Wargotz is a physician and small businessman who understands what is needed to create jobs. "The government should give small businesses the tools they need to create jobs." said Wargotz. "Private businesses will create the jobs we need to get us out of this recession not the government."
Wargotz's philosophy is a stark contrast to that of Senator Barbara Mikulski. Ms. Mikulski believes government is the source of job creation. She believes deficit spending on new government programs is the solution to our economic woes. In contrast, Eric Wargotz believes private enterprise will get our economy moving again. Wargotz opposes higher taxes supported by Mikulski and believes we must cut spending to get our national debt under control.
Eric Wargotz recently launched a "Fire Mikulski" billboard campaign across Maryland.
