    @ Harley: “job creators” my a$$! The people who create jobs are the poor and middle class people who must spend every dime they can get on food, housing and everything else they must buy. That’s what creates an economy. Then, of course, some profits “trickle up” to the wealthy at the top. They still get theirs. “Trickle up” economics works for all of us. Trickle down economics has never worked-it just means the wealthy and big corporations pi$$ on the working middle class and poor. You are so intellectually myopic that reality is far beyond you.

    Our gubbermint gives corporations the right to outsource its jobs for the sake of greater profits and Harlekinns thinks its because we have a high tax code (a code that they lobby our elected officials to change for their gains).

    I’m convinced he gets paid per post.

    Isn’t it at all interesting that many of the wealthiest men in America are the ones who DESTROYED corporations, especially when they shipped all the labor overseas and STILL got parachutes when the company went bust?

    Howie, ONLY the poor and middle class create jobs in the country. They do it by buying stuff. When you take away their wages, benefits, housing, and health care, as has been happening for the last thirty years of increasing wealth gaps, they stop buying stuff. No rich person EVER created a job when there was no market for products.

    @HOWGOZIT

    I am currently working for a guy who isn’t wealthy at all. He simply had to guts to go for it. started with an old beat up van and one other guy. There are eight of us working for him now. Perhaps, if things keep going the way they are, he will become wealthy, but as it stands he was just an average guy with courage and a good credit score…
