A second look with a question appended:
"Face it, no one one running for the Republican nomination really has a plan to create jobs. Most don't believe the government can create jobs; if tax cuts worked we would have seen job growth when the Bush tax cuts were continued (and the Republican leadership in Congress has opposed Obama's plan to further cut taxes).
"If I or anyone besides Cain believes 999 is workable or acceptable to the American people I'd be amazed. It would put our Automobile Industry out of business and all of its suppliers, one obvious example.
"They all oppose regulations and claim we have over regulated business and industry; if and only if government gets out of the way will a recovery occur they posit. It's true, some regulations are silly, they may be good intentioned, but some can be set aside and others modified to spur employment sooner than later. But no one has offered up which regulations need to be set aside, which create the most gridlock and what might the negative consequences if they are no longer the law or enforced."
What specific regulations need to be revised or rescinded?
The EPA needs to be defunded.
It's more than just a few regs that need to be revised. It's an entire mindset that the planet will die if we don't force businesses to move overseas.
Oh, and the government cannot create lasting employment. Only the private-sector can.
Btw, the purpose of a company isn't to pay top dollar for everything. It's to do what it takes to remain competitive and make a profit.
