Holy shit. I agreed with (CNBC's) Jim Cramer about something .....

....... some solutions are right ....... but offered FAR too late. Closing the barn door is a good solution. Assuming the horses haven't already run away.

The same is true in punishing those who would export our jobs and incentivizing new job creators to keep them here.

Here's a fact: As a practical matter, we have NO MORE JOBS TO EXPORT.

To advocate for this as a centerpiece of one's policy to to show how one to be incredibly (<---look it up) naive.

2. He said there are open jobs going begging in some sectors

The way he said it made me think they were something better than McJobs.

3. That's the opposite of what Cramer said.

He said that the manufacturing industry in the US is so strong that they can't find enough workers to fill the jobs.

Seriously. That's what he said. :silly:

8. Please, accept one basic fact:

Jim Cramer does not know what he is saying, too much of the time. He's just rolling and shit comes out.

9. Hence to title of the OP: "Holy shit. I agreed with (CNBC's) Jim Cramer about something ....."

I was quite surprised at that.
