States, job creation was extremely anemic during the Bush presidency, and job destruction has been enormous in the current depression it created.  Your statement is truly comical and you are ridiculous.

The problem with your quip is that it only reveals your ignorance, States.

The problem with the image is that under the FDR the Unemployement rate went from a peak of 25% to a low of pratically 1% because of WW2.

No, because of 'government intervention' in the economy.  Redistribution works.  Tax cuts cannot do anything to rectify the essential problem of capitalism - rather, they exacerbate it.

I've got news for you lads, most jobs are very short term - particularly 'private sector' jobs.  Basically such jobs are totally at the whim of the owner.

Hmm, I got a tax cut under the Bush plan. I fail to see how I'm wealthy.

Do I have to point out the obvious, States?  Your cut was for maybe a thousand bucks or something, right?  The elite each had their taxes cut by millions!

Well duh, I don't pay millions in taxes.

Right, because you are not privileged.
