Obama Promises Job Creation Ideas - WSJ.com

Let's see. In terms of employment, there are the fixed costs (like the health insurance we have to pay for a worker) and variable costs. If we can up the fixed costs (health care bill) and keep up the high taxes (indirect costs) that we know the worker SHOULD have but MIGHT NOT pay for if given a choice, then we can RAISE THE AVERAGE COST of labor to that of a UAW worker (older worker!).

Hmmm, maybe we can get everyone to be employed at UAW salaries and benefits?

Ooops, the companies seem to be hiring workers outside of the US.

Ooops, the small businesses are closing down.

Ooops, the banks seem to think small business won't be able to pay them back.

Ahhhh shucks, lets just raise the taxes on the business guys (and gals) - especially the sole entrepreneurs.

Ooops, they don't seem to be investing in their businesses. Why aren't there any small business jobs?

Well, we can't cut back on social benefits, so let's keep the corporate tax where it is.

Ooops, some corporations seem to be transferring work overseas.

Well, we'll stop that. We'll make them only hire Americans (citizens that is).

Ooops, a lot of R&D work is being booked outside the country where it's easier to bring together foreigners.

on and on and on.

Clearly Democrats know better than workers in terms of how to spend the money that workers COULD earn. (Just like the Republicans know how to determine everyone's moral standards - a bit better than 400 years of the Spanish inquisition - but, is it really?)

Would you really rather have Nancy Pelosi take money out of your paycheck and determine what to do with it? Or, the Republicans tell you how their god thinks you should behave?

HELP!
