Now it's said that corp's and individual business owners have something 2.3 trillion sitting on the side doing nothing. Now if they needed more employees wouldn't you think they would have hired them? They make it sound like tax cuts means that MORE people will be hired because now they have more money.
But isn't the truth more like as a business, whom has plenty of excess money, get's to keep more money they will first and foremost spend to retain. So now we have given these corp money to use, which we are being told will some how mean more jobs, but being a person who have dealt with a fortune 500 company I can tell you they didn't hire people they didn't have a need for and they didn't hire people to make others work easier for them.
But what they do is use extra money to entice people to stay or to replace people who aren't getting what done they think they should by hiring someone from another company and firing the other guy.
So tax cuts will do three things as I see it, #1 being increase pay at the top positions, #2 entice people to work for you #3 increase profits to the bottom line.
But as far as hiring for the sake of having another body, I don't see it happening without increased production need of a product. JMH OBSEVATION.
You really have no idea how this whole business things works, do you?
A successful company doesn't just myopically go forward with what it's doing, oblivious to what's happening in the world around it. Those companies that are holding onto a stockpile of cash instead of hiring people and expanding are doing it because they find the current economic situation and government administration too unstable and unreliable to feel safe in making those expenditures and commitments. If, on the other hand, the administration embraced policies - like tax cuts - that indicated that the company would be more likely to be able to honor such commitments in the future, they'd be more willing to make them.
Gee whiz, I guess that sounds really good, do you think that I could get a deal in Vegas where I see the dealers second card before I have to bet on the black jack table, or can I wait till then ball stops on the roulette table.
If they wanted to invest and thought there was a market for their product they would do it. Investing has little to do with being a good guy, and all to do with making money.
Someone needs to pay for the running of govt, so why does it have to be the guys in the middle who get less out of it that are the first to have their money taken away from them.
