@TheGhostrider420 Class warfare is not a ruse you idiot. It's being propagated every single day by the rich.

@diamondmask Yup, GE perfect example and paid NO tax's. Friends of the government getting away with murder while we suffer. How about lowering the taxs for corporations, how about lowering the cost of labor. How about focusing on the true reasons why jobs go over seas. Its the regulastions that are killing jobs, EPA and their green house gas BS. Cap and TAX Coal plan will but shutdown loosing 3000 jobs, because of regulations. Its the fault of the Big Government mentality killing this country

I wish these jobs could come out of the private sector but its clear to America that those with the $ & means to create jobs are holding us hostage. They wont turn lose of $ to create jobs. Its clear their motive is paying less taxes to raise profits but any less than current would have us paying them for employment! If their greed is so great then we must go around them to get back to work & then impose astronomical tariffs on goods they outsourced & subsequently imported for US consumption!

@diamondmask You conflate free market with corporatism. The free market is what allows individuals to provide goods and services that others want at prices that make consumers happy. Nothing you have said gives any credence to the argument that government needs to steal from the people of America in order to create jobs.

@AynRandFanJG

And what do people do who want to satisfy their greed and get a job to but stuff but can't because the corporate whores have shipped their jobs overseas to bolster their bottom line? You say government can't create jobs, well corporations WILL NOT create jobs unless they are in China or India paying $10 a week. Hows your "free market" working out for us so far?

[MrLeicamaster]

@TheGhostrider420 Bullshit! Jobs go over seas because the greedy fucks make more profit. There's no way we can compete with 3rd world labor prices.

So I assume no jobs were created during WWII. Government can create the need for jobs. You guys need to study history a bit.

@dbloch6592 Need = Greed. If you want to feed yourself you are greedy, because you could give that to someone else. If you want to cloth yourself you are greedy, because you could have given those cloths to someone else. If you want to entertain yourself you are greedy, because you could give money to the needy instead. Interesting definition of greed you seem to have.

The government doesn't create jobs, net. They destroy them because they destroy value. Private sector hasn't failed, govt has.
