Creating Jobs in Allentown: Will Obama Listen?

[bubba007ss]

It is more to it then cutting taxes. I made a video on what I feel about the whole thing I'm from Pa. and all our industries are about gone, two more will go this year, Oh they brought in a temporary military project for us to do and of coarse the two warehouse to bring in all the over seas imports to distribute too all the stores but no industries are going to be left even in our near by counties.

[remotehog1]

along with any tax cuts there has to be budget cuts, and washington has shown they're unwilling to do that.

[FreelancePatriot76]

Govt doesn't create jobs, the free market does.

Kick the govt out of the free market.

What is that Janine-woman saying? A FIFTY percent income tax reduction? Has she completely lost her wits?!?!?!?

How's about these idiots come to the realisation that economics is a bit more complicated than brainless one-liners?

[CPAsheldon]

Any permanent reduction in either income tax rates for business income or payroll taxes would no doubt be a big boost towards private sector hiring. I think that is the only stimulus that should have been considered. Big government spending programs waste way too much money and are not done in a way that gives a permanent boost to the economy.

Cutting taxes is good, but I don't know if a payroll tax cut is the right one. I think there are much more efficient taxes to cut, like corporate income tax, esp. since gov't doesn't get much revenue from that. Doesn't the payroll tax cover things like SS and Medicare? if we cut it, that's even LESS money than we already how now for it. Cutting spending is good, but having even LESS revenue for such expensive programs is probably not such a good idea. Most people are for em too.

[whoo689]

Where does she get the idea that employees will have "50% more" in their pockets? She does realize the payroll tax is actually a very small percentage, right?

[pimpdalyrical]

Lower taxes for employers has been proven to increase government revenue, far more than when the government takes that money from them directly through corporate taxes. the government would have MORE money to fund bankrupt programs like SS and Medicare if they would just let the capitalist system distribute that money naturally. Instead of going straight from the rich to the government, money filters down through each class getting taxed a little each step.

I don't think the United States government should worry about creating jobs since this institution by nature doesn't understand the concept of PROFIT and balancing a budget. All the government needs to do is eliminate taxes for businesses that provide health insurance (full coverage) to their employees. You'll kill two birds with one stone.

Keep the pressure on! Time to put this so called "president" out of work! Recall him now!

[viperBSG]

@jhmorgan0951 You mean Impeach Obama? But he's the Chosen one? the fresh start. The one who wants the U.S. to join a one world Gov. And you want to Impeach him? Nah Only kidding. We really ned to get this monkey out of Office and fast! He should be Impeached.

Love this video and the song fit's I recall in the video for this song a coal miner(? i think it is) is given a pink slip. How fitting it is given the times we are living in.

[LiberalshateAmerica]

After obama left Allentown he called it "Allentown Delaware" what a fool!

[NAGGERNUTZ]

Obama's cabinet and staff has the least amount of private sector experience of any president in history. They just won't listen. They don't hear us. Maybe they'll hear us if we do our talking at the ballot box.

[RebelStangII]

So True!

That's why Emmery/U.P.S. Moved thier Air hub out of Dayton, OH. & Willminton,OH.

& Built thier own Airfield in Kentucky.

Dayton Airport, Cities of Dayton, Vandalia & State Ohio was Has High Taxes & wouldn't come down on prices or offer any real incintives to stay.

Same goes for N.C.R. & a host of other buisineses in the area. Relocating or just closen thier doors. & Yes! Stop Outsorcing American jobs & stop Hireing IL-legals. Lower Taxes! Higher Americans!

Cap and Tax, Welfare Health care, Card Check, out of control spending, redistribution of wealth, capping CEO pay, bank take overs, car company take overs... he's got this economy in a coma.

[computerpurple]

Hello Tommyandthekillers. Excellent post , love the ending part - "he's got this economy in a coma". You captured it perfectly in the words you used to discribe this obama economy.

[whoo689]

What bank takeovers? I haven't heard of a single bank being "taken over" by gov't, have you? Yes, we bailed them out and whatnot, but they're still largely private. Does your checkbook say "gov't-owned" on it? Mine doesn't. And only GM was taken over. Ford and Chrysler are still private. ;)

It's not exactly 'welfare' healthcare, either. Despite popular belief, the public option WILL require consumers who use it to pay premiums.

[snowcloud]

He doesn't want to create jobs. Only people on the dole of government.

Is this Jack Murtha's district? I'd question them about that issue as well, if it is.

[computerpurple]

Hello snowcloud. Thanks for the info that this is Jack Murtha's district , i did not know that.

[snowcloud]

No, I'm not 100% sure. I think it is, though.

[myangels7]

Stop outsourcing American jobs to foreign countries... AND stop giving the rest of the jobs to illegals!

[computerpurple]

Hi friend myangels7. I agree with what you said. Especially about ILLEGAL ALIENS.

[adamitshelanu]

You know what's wrong with this video?

These people are not Marxists with teaching positions dedicated to subverting the US Constitution and "traditional educational paradigm." They have NEVER bombed a police station or stole Government handouts to rig an election. They have never, not one of them, devoted their entire working lives in back room political horse trading to inventing laws and regulation to subjugate all peoples yearning for stand alone freedom to mind their own business.

Phooie!
