Pos rep. I have never understood the mentality that says businesses exist in order to create jobs.
Then why would you pos rep a post opposing my post where I make the same point?
You have a weird trend of disagreeing with me by agreeing with me. Why do you do that?
I say that the relying on existing business owners to create new jobs when they don't want to or need to is a bad strategy and somehow you disagree by saying you don't understand the idea that businesses exist in order to create jobs.
To Dirk's post, a new business owner would have HAVE to hire people because they don't have any employees. Who is more likely to hire somebody? A business owner with 100 employees who has come to that number by hiring and firing people and reaching a comfortable balance between payroll and revenues? Or a new business owner getting his business off the ground?
I've been saying for years that unemployment is overrated is an overrated statistic. There was a lot of fluff in the economy and people who probably shouldn't have had jobs in the first place in bloated industries and bloated businesses feeding off the bubbles.
Now the solution is new industries and new businesses.
Shorty, read my post and please state why you disagree with my take.
again, i agree. "getting more teenagers in the work force rather than hanging out...." sounds fine. I expect we disagree on how to do that.
I never understood the metnality that 3% in tax reduction would create jobs. Oh yeah it didn't and a similar amount of tax increase won't cost a single job.
Are you serious?

Yep. That's the obvious answer. A true investment in clean energy would generate a lot of jobs, but private industry and the government aren't willing to go all out and make a long term commitment even though this is something we should have started 30+ years ago.
