Ted, > So then, given that cutting the taxes of the rich and corps. is not generating the kind of job growth we would like why keep those cuts in place? Better to let the Bush tax cuts to expire and use that money to generate jobs. No? You and Don are both subscribing to the myth that government "creates" jobs. Nope. I am discussing the R myth re. tax cuts. Clearly they are not working at all. Better to take the money in and have the gov't create New Deal kind of jobs. Government doesn't create jobs. The private sector does. See the New Deal/wiki. Whether you let the Bush tax cuts "expire" or not is beside the point. The real deal is improving the productivity of American workers and American businesses. One way to do that is to let the best ones reap the rewards and the worst ones fail. American productivity is high.......that's part of the problem. Employers are pushing their workers to work harder rather than hire new ones. Government can "grease the skids" wherever necessary, but they can't just create jobs out of thin air. Unless you believe in a centralized planned economy, in which case all bets are off. Again. See the New Deal.
