You're the guys that say the Private sector provides jobs without the government.
Now you're saying it doesn't.
Pick a fucking side, will ya?
Where did I ever say the Private Sector doesn't provide jobs without the government? If the government allows it to, the Private Sector is quite capable of providing jobs. You on the other hand seem to feel that the answer to all our problems is for the government to take over MORE of the Private Sector.
Actually, I don't. I think the government we have..which is a mix of both public and private sector initiatives, is a good way to go.
But when there's a break down in the process, which is, that government funds research and development, gives grants and loans at low cost, gives out contracts to do jobs for the public sector..and the private sector responds by giving Americans jobs and providing a tax base, and provides goods and services..something has to change.
So far tax cuts and low regulations are not working. Quite the opposite. It is encouraging massive greed from the "wealth extractors". We are seeing the same sort of concentrating of wealth we saw prior to the new deal. It's not good and it's destroying a carefully crafted middle class.
It's absolutely fine to have rich people, by the way, but not when it is causing so much economic distress. And that really has to be remedied.
And the last time you turned down a Raise was.......
