Actually you are wrong. The yacht builder is expanding and is putting up two new buildings and adding 150 new jobs. Going from 200 - 350 employees. The trickle down effect in this community for such well paying jobs obviously is wonderful.

BTW, the new yacht ordered is from a Kuwait and is a very expensive boat that should be extremely profitable for the company.

We need jobs in many sectors, as not everyone has biotech skills for example.

And this company is building for International trade as I mentioned by who oredered this boat. So don't jump against good news right away because of an agenda, but instead get the facts. Your post was not well thought out and was simply a knee jerk reaction to good news. That is wrong.

tonto, this is exactly what the opponents of trickle down economics say. When you give tax breaks to the rich, the Bushies say that the money they get is rolled back into their businesses and jobs are created. Instead, that money is used to build the personal assets such as private aircrafts, yatchs etc. Instead we need those monies from the tax breaks to go towards creating jobs in the high tech and biotech, in manufacturing of industrial goods, etc. etc.
Not into building the personal assets for the rich but instead into building goods for international trade etc.
