Unemployment Drop a Sham According to Socialist Party Ticket

The Alexander/Mendoza campaign calls for a real jobs program, as well as protecting public sector jobs which have been faltering since the economic crisis began. They say that spending billions of dollars on incentives for businesses doesn’t get the job done – rather they call for the government to create jobs directly.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday that the unemployment rate fell by .4% to 8.6% in November. The Socialist Party USA ticket of Stewart Alexander and Alex Mendoza feels that this is something that will pass by January and that long term jobs are not being created.

From the beginning, the Occupy movement has been under attack by the political establishment. Police had been sent to harass the protesters by preventing them from putting up tents and had begun using archaic laws against wearing masks in public to arrest protesters by day four. By day ten, the police began unprovoked physical intimidation of protesters by making them randomly....

Socialist Party Presidential Candidate Stewart Alexander Says Obama Represents the One Percent

In 2009, Tea Parties sprung up across America, and despite the insistence of the Tea Partiers, it was understood as a Republican movement. In hindsight, it went much further than that - they were a force to the right of the Republican Party that has been driving it ever more radically to the right. In October of 2011, Occupy protests sprung up across the nation claiming to represent the 99%. Initially, the Democratic Party shunned the protests before they began giving it lip service, which was before they began moving against the protesters, as in Democrat-controlled Oakland, California.

Stewart Alexander, Socialist Party USA nominee for President, says the Occupy movement is similarly to the left of the Democratic Party. More so, he claims that Barack Obama represents the 1%, not the 99%....

Occupy Wall Street is an ongoing demonstration and protest in New York City that has quickly evolved into protests across America, protesting against social and economic inequity, corporate greed and the influence of corporate money in government.

In 2007 and 2008, candidate Barack Obama promised the American working class hope and change. Stewart Alexander says “The hopes on Wall Street were fulfilled and working people got a change for the worse; now working people are going to the streets and demanding good paying jobs, affordable housing, affordable education, guaranteed health care, and demanding an end to corporate welfare and greed.”....
