And You Wonder Why Obama Is Killing Jobs

The Obama administration, through the EEOC, is trying to re-open a case from 1999 in which age and race discrimination were alleged.
From Vegas Inc: Las Vegas Sands Corp. says "enough is enough" – but the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission refuses to drop its investigation of the 1999 hiring spree for the opening of the Venetian resort on the Las Vegas Strip.
Venetian owner Las Vegas Sands Corp. has denied anyone was discriminated against when the company, controlled by Sheldon Adelson, in 2008 initiated a mass-hiring effort that resulted in 4,018 people working there for the grand opening on May 3, 1999.
As this was the company’s first resort to open on the Strip, Venetian attorneys said the opening process including hiring the employees was a "gargantuan task."
Of the 141,274 job-seekers who called a Venetian interview-scheduling system, 44,332 received interview appointments and 4,018 were hired, Venetian attorneys say.
Of the applicants, the EEOC says 10 filed complaints with the EEOC alleging they were not hired because of their age and an 11th alleged discrimination based on race.

So, out of of 141,274 applicants, 11 people had problems with them not being hired. That is about .008% of the applicants who claimed they were discriminated against. the Venetian also settled with the individuals involved, so there were no outstanding claims.
This is another reason why businesses in the United States don't want to hire within the U.S. Here, we have a case 12 years old and it effected only 11 people and those 11 people settled with the Venetian.
And Obama wonders why people laugh at him when he says he wants to create more jobs. He isn't interested- he only wants to harass employers with regulations and lawsuits.
So, I would call on Dean Heller and Crybaby Harry Reid to intervene and condemn the EEOC for harassing a Las Vegas employer. I hope Heller does, but Crybaby Reid won't- Adelson is a Republican and this reeks of political payback.
