Senate GOP Unveils Jobs Plan, Tax Cuts

Uhhhh, S. D.,

You spout a lot of hot air without much to back it up in the way of facts.

So, instead of idle pontification, you might actually want to look at the facts, here:

Presidents don't create jobs. They simply sign bills that Congresses pass. They can propose bills, but they cannot make laws.

If any politicians have any impact on jobs creation, it's the Congress -- and it's Congresses that can get Big Brother OUT of the way so private enterprise can do the heavy lifting of job creation.

Right now, we have an unqualified, naive, misguided and inexperienced chief executive who thinks that the way to create jobs is a massive centralized socialist government. How's THAT workin' out for ya?

The way to create jobs is to get rid of the burdens on American businesses. Why do you think much of our manufacturing moved overseas? Just where in the economies we lost those jobs to is a Big Brother OSHA and an EPA? Where is all that senseless cost, meddling and stifling of innovation in their economies?

And it isn't about a class warfare comparison re how much taxes businesses pay and how much individuals pay. It's about lowering bureaucratic and financial burdens on the sector of American businesses that create the vast majority of new jobs -- small companies with less than 500 employees.

Per this chart, "new companies under 50 employees. What these small companies need is lower taxes, less regulation and strong property rights.", shown here:

That chart is easier to see on page 32 of this U. S. Census Bureau-sponsored paper:

Note that companies with 500 or less employees create 80% of new jobs.

It isn't your cherished Obama who creates any jobs -- except those in his preposterously bloated federal bureaucracy.

Instead, what those job-creating small companies need, S. D., is for you and your naive, mis-educated big government types to get out of the way (lower taxes and a much smaller federal government) and let those businesses do what they do best -- entrepreneurial innovation.

American businesses DIDN'T/DON'T need trillion dollar stimulus bills that send almost all of that money to governments and to huge unionized corporations.

THOSE AREN'T WHERE JOBS ARE CREATED! Just one prime example of how your kind just don't get it.

How ya liking that Big Government hopey changey thing, and those 9% unemployment and 20% under-employment rates?

Clinton, after the thrashing his party took in the Congressional elections of 1994, figured out the Republicans were right and started signing every common-sense bill they sent to him. And look what happened to the U. S. economy.

Your leftist friends need to take a lesson from that: Just get out of the way!
