Meh, state governments help create local jobs by being business friendly
See Nikki getting Volvo in South Carolina and a host of other off shore jobs
See Texas creating (or stealing as the liberals would say) most of the jobs during Obama's receccison
Only what the federal government can do is create public sector jobs, create private sector jobs through Union military contracts or hinder private sector job growth... which Obama was great at with Obama care, threat of a raise in the minimum wage and just by being a democrat , no one wanted to invest much with this president because he is so anti business.
So, if the private sector doesn't want to invest to create jobs, why do they need a special tax rate called, capital gains that is not taxed as ordinary income?
Full employment/part-time employment should correlate to full and part-time jobs availability.
Why don't our elected representatives to federal government become as fond of micromanaging those tax rates are they are regular income tax codes.
Capital gains is a tax that brings in revenue to the government while at the same time, encourages people to invest.
Remember that not all investments create jobs either. A business can invest in a huge warehouse, but only create about three or four jobs for the people that are going to operate that warehouse. Or they may invest in robotics or machinery that requires few if any employees to run them.
Right now there are McDonald's restaurants that are investing in automation in an attempt to have an employee-less store. Sure, there may be a few people there to oversee the operations, but now you have to push buttons on a keypad for what you want and your hamburger is going to be made by machines on an assembly line.
