Policies that Would Support Employment: Our Financial Godfathers - Up and Down Wall Street - A. Abelson - Barrons.com

Our Financial Godfathers - Up and Down Wall Street - A. Abelson - Barrons.com

In dealing with the lack of employment, what we have not seen, do not see and would like to see are policies that are "pro-business". Instead business is looked upon as either a 'cash cow' to supply the funds to the do-gooder bureaucrats; as a bunch of miscreants who could but don't create American jobs; etc.

We need to have policies that support education (read: get rid of teachers unions; or, better yet consider jailing their leaders); support small business owners (read: lower taxes); support employment and fair pay to workers with worker choice of benefits (read: less money taken from worker paychecks to support government redistribution programs) - fight the labor conundrum; support venture capital (lower capital gains taxes - or, at least don't raise them; we need cutting edge new jobs); etc., etc.
