At a press conference with Republican leaders, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) responded to the latest unemployment report and said tax hikes on small business job creators would only make our jobs situation worse.

  • Anyone who believes any business pays 39% tax needs to have their head examined. The rich paid for 102,000+ pages of tax loopholes that is why they pay 5%

    Republicans consider Trans Ocean & their (5) $500M drilling platforms a small business. I would love to have a $2.5B small business.

    How many jobs will Paris Hilton create??

    How many jobs will the Jersey Shore gang create?

    How many jobs will Linsey Lohan create?

  • Tax corporations so they do not get away with no taxation. The Citizens for Tax Justice put out a report recently with that 12 major corporations like Honeywell, Verizon, General Electric, and in three years, they made $167 billion in profit, paid zero in taxes, and got $2.5 billion back from the treasury.

  • He is right. If you increase taxes on job creators. How will they be able to send more jobs to India,China,etc?

  • Who are the job creators? Republicans keep bringing them up but don't say who they are.

  • If John could spin this B*** S*** into gold, we would not have a deficit. We all need to be equal under the law, even the tax law. I am one of those 50% of US citizens paying taxes.

    Corporations do not make more jobs than small business owners. Look at the vacancies in our strip malls and shopping centers and know that we are a country in crisis. Small businesses are folding across the country. Our leadership is greedy fo corporate campaign donations and out of touch with the citizenry.

  • John, here is a reality check. Your policies didn't work when you guys had control and they aren't going to work now. Tell us John, how many jobs did your Administration create with the George Bush tax cuts for the wealthy?

    The only jobs you Republican's created with your policies are in China, Vietnam, Mexico and India. You guys are still blowing smoke everyone's ass and you actually believe that the American people are going to fall for it again.

    You know you're wrong John. GET A GRIP.

  • JOHN, YOU ARE CORRUPT !

    Americans are never gonna buy this garbage.

    You look after the needs of the super rich, and take your trimming knife to GRANDMA.

    We know whose side you're on, you DEVIL.

    Yeah, get rid of medicare and social security so DONALD TRUMP and the KOCH BROTHERS can buy some more vacation homes this summer.

    Screw the American working class cause Rupert Murdoch's gonna need to buy some more private jets this year.

    You and Rupert Murdoch and Fox FakeNews.

  • Mr. Boehner, here is a suggestion for you. Do you want to save some real cash? Do away with the subsidies we have been providing to the agricultural industry for decades.

    I'll bet you guys wouldn't touch that one with a ten-foot pole because you know you will all lose your jobs.

    Obama had nothing to do with this financial mess. It was created, established and implemented by the Republican Party. The same Party that gave us the Great Depression.

  • We all better hope and pray Obama is ONLY a one term president. Can you imagine another 5 1/2 years of this? We'll never be the same again, after 2 1/2 years we are already in deep deep trouble.

  • WHY IN THE HELL DON'T WE HAVE A STRAIGHT TAX ACROSS THE BOARD FOR EVERYONE, NO MATTER HOW MUCH THEY MAKE. WE NEED TO PUT ALL ISSUES TO THE PEOPLE TO VOTE ON NOT THE CROOKS IN THE HOUSE AND SENTATE. WE NEED TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT IS ON THE TABLE WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW...........
