    Here is a challenge for you since you only respect jobs that " create wealth" how about defining what you mean by " creating wealth". Does the military create wealth. Do teachers create wealth. How about policemen. Does Facebook create wealth. Comon give us a definition of just exactly what " creating wealth" means to you.

    So you agree that all the jobs I mentioned are necessary and not a waste of taxpayer money. Ergo government does create jobs And the jobs created are necessary.. My point has obviously been made and now you are diverting to government waste which is an entirely different topic.

    Except Keystone won't do squat for lowering energy prices. Apparently there actual ARE obstructionist Republicans who are victims of their own ignorance. In this case how energy as a commodity is traded.

    The Democrats jobs plan is to keep democrat congress-people and political appointees in office. Outside of that they don't give a rat's ass about anybody else.

    And something like 90% of those either try to repeal Obamacare or ban abortion or more tax cuts to the upper 1%. No thank you.

    Jobs for people are being eliminated for two primary reasons. Off shoring to increase profits margins by exploiting poor people and the big one, automation. Automation has doomed capitalism, and if no one can see why, go back and get a basic elementary school education.

    Why didn't you just say you were a Marxist like the president and that you support the way he divides the country? It would have saved a bit of time.

    It is freedom and liberty, not government, that is the fertile ground for the economy.

    That article was all about government. I did not see anything about regulatory relief that will spur job growth. It was a whine piece that government has to do with less.

    Perfect. Government should have to do with less.

    There is nothing quite like crony capitalism for laundering money.

    And no again. The huge deficits were from ,lack of revenue due to high unemployment and an unfunded war. Take out the war spending and we would have had budget surpluses.

    And no one has stated that tax cuts could prevent a collapse. But high taxes can sure stunt a recovery

    Republicans use azz-backward arithmetic. It doesn't work, but they don't care. They take it on faith -- results are irrelevant.

    Just reading the list tells you most were to destroy the land in which we all have to live. But more profits is all that matters. Once the land is destroyed, we can have more jobs trying to restore it. I dunno, what the logic is. Maybe make all the money one can and if the earth is destroyed who cares, we all die someday?

    Bull(*)(*)(*)(*). They are bills to gut or circumvent the Clean Air & Clean Water Acts & do little to nothing for job creation.
