The Democrats' Blue-Collar Blues
Why is the president considering tanking thousands of union jobs in a 9% unemployment economy?

'Blue and green should never be seen without a color in between," runs the old design line. An imperiled President Obama is learning the political pain of mixing colors.
His greens are certainly in evidence, camped in ever greater numbers in front of the White House to protest the proposed Keystone XL pipeline that will move oil from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. The pipeline officially needs State Department approval, though this week Mr. Obama further elevated the controversy by announcing that he would be making the final call.
Which gets us to his blues, or rather the 20,000 blue-collar construction jobs that would come with the pipeline, and the further 118,000 spin-off jobs. The unions—from the Teamsters, to the Plumbers and Pipefitters, to the Laborers—are out in force pushing for this giant job creator. "We can't wait to get America building again," blares a union-sponsored website in support of Keystone, poking at the president's latest political rhetoric.
Keystone is more than just the administration's latest headache. It's the clear culmination of an Obama governing philosophy that has consistently put green priorities ahead of blue-collar workers, and that is now one of the biggest threats to his re-election.
This isn't a constituency Mr. Obama should ever have dared to slight. Working-class white males were the Hillary Clinton bloc in 2008 and helped her trounce him in key states such as Pennsylvania and Ohio. Mr. Obama would go on in the general election to lock up the college-educated, the affluent, the women, the minorities, the first-time voters—you name it. He lost the white working class by 18 points.
Rather than court this constituency, Mr. Obama has spent three years waging war on them. Under the sway of (former) green czar Carol Browner, Environmental Protection Agency Director Lisa Jackson and the environmental lobby, the Obama administration has done more to kill working-class industries than any modern predecessor.

The EPA has labored over an ozone rule (estimated job losses: 7.3 million), power plant rules (1.4 million), a boiler rule (789,000), a coal-ash rule (316,00), a cement rule (23,000), and greenhouse gas rules (even Joe Biden can't count that high). The administration blew up Louisiana's offshore deepwater drilling industry, insisted Detroit make cars nobody wants to buy and, just to stay consistent, is moving to clamp down on the country's one booming industry: natural gas.
Those going the way of the dodo are utility workers, pipefitters, construction guys, coal miners, factory workers, truck drivers, electrical workers and machinists. Many of these are union Democrats who don't care if their union bosses are publicly sticking with the president. They are pessimistic about the future and increasingly angry over the president's attack on their work.
A Pew poll this year found an astonishing 43% of the white working class didn't believe they'd be better off in 10 years—the most negative views of any group polled, by far. It helps explain why, in the 2010 election, the white working class surged to give the GOP a record 63% of their vote, 30 points more than for Democrats. It's why a poll out of the Center for Opinion Research at Franklin & Marshall College in Pennsylvania just found that 59% of union households now say they want someone in the White House other than Barack Obama.
Despite the media obsession with America's changing demographics, blue-collar, white workers still make up 40% of the electorate, even more in states Mr. Obama needs. The latest 2012 census data suggest that white working-class voters could make up some 55% of the Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan votes.
This explains the White House's recent decision to delay or scale back some EPA regs, including on greenhouse gases and ozone. A red-faced Mrs. Jackson has issued all manner of excuses. But the reality is the rule changes were a direct give-back to the blue-collar unions, which have been publicly protesting the regulations and privately warning the administration about electoral death. The White House had also been getting an earful from vulnerable congressional Democrats, who threatened to start voting with Republicans against these job-killers if the White House didn't take them off the table.
More telling is that the White House is moving in a way that suggests even it knows these gestures come too late. Mr. Obama is throwing his campaign attention at Southern and Rocky Mountain states he won in 2008 (North Carolina, Virginia, Nevada, Colorado), looking for a way to 270 that goes around the Rust Belt.
This might also help explain Mr. Obama's continued dithering on Keystone XL. Most presidents would eat dog food for the chance to generate a job bonanza and billions in investment with a project his own State Department says poses no environmental threat. But the green lobby hates it, and that green lobby is a staple of the liberal, educated, affluent base, and that's the group the Obama team is ever more convinced it's going to need in 2012.
And so we have a president who is seriously considering tanking thousands of union jobs, in a 9% unemployment economy, and while on a jobs tour. If that sounds crazy, well . . .

Private Sector Adds Jobs, but Unemployment Stubborn
By LUCA DI LEO And JEFFREY SPARSHOTT
WASHINGTON—U.S. companies kept adding workers to their payrolls in October, and data for the previous two months were revised higher, but the gains made only a small dent in the high unemployment rate.
The government's broadest snapshot of the labor market showed the U.S. economy created 80,000 jobs in October. The Labor Department said the private sector added 104,000 positions, which was partially offset by continued cuts at all levels of government.
Payrolls data for the previous two months were revised up by a total of 102,000 to show 158,000 jobs were added in September and 104,000 jobs in August.
However, highlighting the persistent weakness of the labor market, the unemployment rate, which is obtained from a separate household survey, fell only marginally to 9.0% from 9.1% in September.
The results were broadly in line with expectations, but the upward revisions to previous payroll figures were encouraging. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires had forecast payrolls would rise by 100,000 last month and that the jobless rate would be unchanged at 9.1%.
After almost grinding to a halt in the first half of the year, the economy has been picking up some speed in recent months. However, the jobs market remains weak more than two years after the deep recession of 2008 and 2009 ended. The latest data provide further evidence that the economy avoided another downturn last summer, but that it remains vulnerable to shocks, particularly from Europe's ongoing financial crisis.
The breakdown of the Labor Department report showed that employment in business and professional services continued to trend up, adding 32,000 jobs last month. Health care also continued to perform well, with payrolls expanding by 12,000 after a 45,000 gain in September. Offices of physicians added 8,000 jobs.
Manufacturing, a big creator of jobs for most of the recovery that began in mid-2009, was little changed for the third month in a row. The construction sector showed a decline of 20,000 jobs which largely offset the increase in September.
Meanwhile, government employment continued to fall--by 24,000. The public sector has been shedding jobs for a year now. Governments at all levels are expected to continue cutting jobs as administrations cut huge budget gaps accumulated to fight the recession.
While the report offered some encouraging signs, the overall jobs picture remains bleak: almost 14 million Americans are unemployed, with nearly 6 million of them without a job for more than six months.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke Wednesday gave a bleak assessment of the U.S. economic outlook, predicting that the unemployment rate will still be around 8.6% at the end of 2012, when Americans vote in the presidential elections. With short-term interest rates already close to zero, Bernanke urged other parts of the government to help in boosting jobs. But President Barack Obama and Republican lawmakers are at odds on how to revive the jobs market.
In a mildly positive development, the government's broader measure of unemployment edged down to 16.2% in October from 16.5% the prior month. The comprehensive gauge of labor underutilization, known as the "U-6" for its data classification by the Labor Department, accounts for people who have stopped looking for work or who can't get full-time jobs.
The large slack in the labor market is keeping wages from growing strongly, a step that would be needed to boost consumer spending and the wider economy. Average hourly earnings of all employees rose by 5 cents to $23.19 in October. Over the past 12 months, average hourly earnings have risen by just 1.8%, failing to keep up with an inflation rate of around 3.8%

RESUMEN-Italia acepta vigilancia FMI, UE busca apoyo
viernes 4 de noviembre de 2011 08:33 GYT

CANNES, Francia (Reuters) - Italia, bajo un fuerte asedio de los mercados financieros y de sus pares europeos, aceptó que el Fondo Monetario Internacional vigile sus avances en las postergadas reformas a las pensiones, el mercado laboral y privatizaciones, dijeron el viernes fuentes de la Unión Europea.
El primer ministro Silvio Berlusconi, cuyo Gobierno está cerca de colapsar, aceptó la decisión tras extensas negociaciones en la noche del jueves con líderes de la zona euro y el presidente de Estados Unidos, Barack Obama, en el marco de la cumbre del G-20 en Cannes.
La medida se produce después de un ultimátum europeo para que Grecia retrocediera en sus planes de realizar un referendo que podría haber provocado su salida de la zona euro y acordara un consenso nacional en respaldo al nuevo programa de rescate de 130.000 millones de euros (178.000 millones de dólares).
En contraste, las discusiones con Italia fueron amables, dijeron diplomáticos europeos. Berlusconi apreció la gravedad de la situación y se involucró a conciencia en las conversaciones.
"Necesitamos estar seguros de que hay credibilidad con las metas de Italia, de que va a cumplirlas. Decidimos que el FMI se involucre en la vigilancia, usando su propia metodología, y los italianos dicen que pueden vivir con eso", dijo una fuente de la UE.
"Italia no tiene ningún problema con la supervisión, incluso con que el FMI se involucre", agregó y comentó que la Comisión Europea y el FMI realizarán reportes separados sobre la manera en que Italia cumple con sus objetivos.
Los líderes de Francia, Alemania, Italia, España, el Banco Central Europeo, el FMI y las instituciones de la UE también discutieron con Obama las maneras de reforzar los fondos de financiamiento del FMI para ayudar a prevenir el contagio de la crisis de deuda de la zona euro y evitar que la economía mundial caiga de nuevo en recesión.
Una fuente del G-20 dijo que no se acordaron montos pero que el reforzamiento a los recursos del FMI, en su mayoría de grandes economías emergentes como China, podría ser en torno a los 300.000-350.000 millones de dólares.
Funcionarios de la UE dijeron que había tres opciones en consideración, entre ellas agrupar los derechos de los países de la zona euro para pedir prestado al FMI con el fin de edificar un fondo que ayude a las economías vulnerables como Italia y España. Esto podría dejar disponibles otros 280.000-300.000 millones de dólares, dijo la fuente del G-20.
La concesión de Berlusconi fue un intento por mejorar la difícil posición de su país en los mercados de bonos, donde los costos de financiamiento de Italia se dispararon por sobre el 6 por ciento esta semana, generando dudas sobre su capacidad de enfrentar en el largo plazo una deuda equivalente al 120 por ciento del PIB.
En un reflejo de los problemas de Italia, dos sondeos corporativos de esta semana mostraron que el país está cayendo rápidamente en recesión.
Un funcionario italiano negó que su país esté siendo tratado de manera especial por esta vigilancia del FMI y dijo que toda la zona euro estaría bajo una fiscalización más cercana. Sin embargo, confirmó que Roma estaba dispuesta a pedir asesoría del FMI para implementar los compromisos que hizo a la UE el 27 de octubre.
MAS ALLA DEL DRAMA GRIEGO
Los líderes del G-20 intentarán ver más allá del drama griego que ha remecido a su reunión anual y buscarán acordar medidas que convenzan a los mercados de que el riesgo de un mayor contagio en la zona euro puede ser controlado.
Los delegados que se reúnen en la ciudad turística de Cannes para dos días de negociaciones que buscan enviar un mensaje de calma a los mercados, se hallaron presenciando la lucha de la zona euro por controlar uno de sus mayores incendios hasta el momento, luego de que Grecia puso en duda un acuerdo de rescate y pareció al borde de abandonar el euro.
La fuente de la UE dijo que una línea de crédito preventiva no era vista como una opción creíble para Italia, donde uno de los principales problemas ha sido la confianza del mercado.
"Con el clima general y la falta de credibilidad de Italia, todo pequeño retroceso o problema es exacerbado y empeora las cosas, por lo que los mercados no pueden tener confianza", agregó.
El futuro de Grecia en la zona euro podría depender de una moción de confianza en el primer ministro socialista, George Papandreou, en la noche del viernes
Si Papandreou gana, fuentes gubernamentales dijeron que se comprometió a renunciar y abrir el camino para un gobierno de unidad nacional interino que promulgue el plan de rescate de la UE/FMI, reciba una ayuda vital y pavimente el camino para elecciones anticipadas el próximo año.
Pero si pierde, Grecia se hundirá en una crisis política aún más profunda y podría enfrentar una moratoria y una posible salida de la zona euro.
Pero analistas ya están mirando a Italia como un caso de prueba para el paquete anti-crisis acordado en Bruselas la semana pasada.
"Italia tiene la clave para la crisis de deuda de la zona euro", dijo el analista de BNP Paribas Luigi Speranza en la noche del jueves. "Los acontecimientos en Italia son una prueba crucial para la credibilidad del programa anti-crisis establecido por la UE", agregó.
Una cláusula de un borrador del comunicado de la cumbre de Cannes, obtenido por Reuters, mostró que Italia solo podrá llevar su presupuesto "cerca del" equilibrio en el 2013 como parte de un paquete de compromisos que apunten a reducir los desequilibrios económicos.

Toyota extiende paralización en Tailandia y reduce producción
viernes 4 de noviembre de 2011 08:46 GYT
Imprimir[-] Texto [+] Por Chang-Ran Kim
TOKIO (Reuters) - Toyota Motor Corp dijo el viernes que mantendrá paralizadas sus tres fábricas en Tailandia y que su producción en Japón se reducirá la semana próxima, y que además recortará actividad en Norteamérica, Sudáfrica y algunos mercados asiáticos por la escasez de partes de proveedores tailandeses afectados por inundaciones.
En general, la decisión era esperada, porque sus rivales Nissan Motor Co y Honda Motor Co dijeron que el impacto por las inundaciones afectaría al menos otra semana a Nissan y meses a Honda, cuya planta está inundada.
Las peores inundaciones en Tailandia en 50 años han afectado a cientos de industrias y han reducido el suministro de 100 componentes de Toyota, la principal automotriz de Tailandia, con una capacidad de producción de 650.000 vehículos por año en sus tres fábricas en el país.
Toyota, el mayor fabricante de automóviles del mundo, dijo que los planes más allá del 14 de noviembre serán determinados según se presente la situación.
