The government is not in control of the situation, government really can't be. Business can't take, it must earn, government cannot earn and must take. Anything government can give must be taken from some entity that earns. When people sit and collect, from essentially other people, the situation has to stagnate. When people decide to work, they earn, maybe not much and it may be an uphill battle, especially with a government taking, but the solution does not lie with Obama. He is far too incompetent to make any dent one way or another. When unemployed people decide they have had enough collecting and decide to earn instead, it will change. Obama's policies ideas, and posturing have nothing or zip to do with that.

Rich,
Obama is competent.
He must work with a congress that has not shown up. The Republican approach is to ‘stagnate ‘the process with partisan bickering.
As Howard Schultz CEO of Starbucks recently said,
“ This is a time for citizenship, not partisanship. It is a time for action.”
The United States has given much to corporations, when are corporations going to tighten the belt a bit and give something back? Corporations are sitting on a trillion dollars of liquid assets. With that privilege comes responsibility, they need to hire.

Obama can't lead because he has no experience. He is an organizer not a business leader. And all the experts he has around him are theoretical economic experts, they have no actual real world experience either. His policies of big government spending, social entitlement programs and redistribution of wealth can not be supported by a free and open market enterprise system.

"Obama is competent."
If so just when is he going to demonstrate some of his competence? And stop copping out with Congress, his party controlled that for two years and he wasn't demonstrating any more competence then than he is now.
"...when are corporations going to tighten the belt a bit and give something back?"
Never, And besides they aren't the sector of the economy that controls employment. small and medium size companies do.

chatmandu002,
I hope you do not believe that Bachman has the answer to the issue of jobs. Her business experience is to study hard how to live off the government. Also she said she would eliminate the EPA.
President Obama recently assigned Alan Krueger to head his team of economic advisers. Professor Kruger has authored many books, but one in particular is ‘Inequality in America: What Role for Human Capital Policies’. Interestingly Mother Jones published an article in April of this year titled: IT’S THE INEQUALITY, STUPID. The article is full of pictures, graphs and charts for those who have difficulty understanding that the real problem is that there is too much wealth consolidated at the top.

Rich,
President Obama is competent.
I may not appreciate everything that Affordable Health Care provides or the way it was legislated, but I do appreciate the fact that some of the systemic problems in health care delivery have been addressed - finally. I think that demonstrates a level of competence.
I appreciate that bin Laden and much of al-Qaeda leadership has been captured or killed under the Obama administration.

To add
Rich, I will appreciate even more when we end our adventures in all foreign countries except those that have NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) or United Nations participation.
And, Rich, see my link above for 100 medium to large and small companies who pledge to do what they can to get the US back to work. They also are trying to encourage congress to get its ‘House’ in order.

P.S.S
When I say 'see my link above for 100 companies who pledge to do what they can to get the U.S. back to work.' I mean the first link or this link:

"President Obama is competent." At what?
"I may not appreciate everything that Affordable Health Care provides or the way it was legislated, but I do appreciate the fact that some of the systemic problems in health care delivery have been addressed - finally. I think that demonstrates a level of competence."
Actually about all it does is sit an expensive governmental bureaucracy on top of an expensive insurance scam that has made medicine unaffordable. Nothing addresses the scam that caused the problem. Hardly competence.
"I appreciate that bin Laden and much of al-Qaeda leadership has been captured or killed under the Obama administration."
Billions of dollars, our armies in two countries, and we still haven't managed to wipe it out in a decade? You have a very strange concept of competence.

then why do they keep on getting tax breaks or tax cuts or tax incentives?

I absolutely LOVE President Barack Obama’s Supreme Court choices! Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan are outstanding representatives for the court.
These choices are more than competent!

wdgnas - "then why do they keep on getting tax breaks or tax cuts or tax incentives?"
So they can afford to donate to candidates who give them tax breaks or tax cuts or tax incentives.
Cerulean- If you leave political ideology out of the equation there are a several hundred legal scholars who are vastly superior to either. These appointments aren't competent so much as the return of political favor.

Can't wait to hear "competent" Obama's Job fix speech. My guess is there will be little change and more excuses.
