Jobs and how to create them

I've been listening to Meet the Press and the commentators are discussing "job creation." Of course, their emphasis is on "government job creation." All of their offerings are  what government can do to create jobs. NO ONE seems to get it. The private sector creates job growth.

NO ONE mentioned how jobs are kept down in the energy industries, coal, oil and gas, and yes, even nuclear, by restrictions. Government created restrictions. I kept wanting to shout at them, "open up drilling, stop threatening the coal industry. Stop the restrictions. Let us drill baby drill, let us create new nuclear power plants, let them put in wind power off Ted Kennedy's estate."

How many jobs could be created in that way? what are they thinking? Well, they just aren't thinking. They have the liberal blinders on.

  1. Yep. The simple truth evades them with the blinders. Government -- which has no answers -- is the only answer to them. And then they wonder why we call them Marxists. It's simple: Jobs are created by people in the private sector who start businesses and grow businesses.
