Actually, "the Rich" Don't "Create Jobs," We Do
Saturday 14 May 2011
You hear it again and again, variation after variation on a core message: if you tax rich people it kills jobs. You hear about "job-killing tax hikes," or that "taxing the rich hurts jobs," "taxes kill jobs," "taxes take money out of the economy, "if you tax the rich they won't be able to provide jobs." ... on and on it goes. So do we really depend on "the rich" to "create" jobs? Or do jobs get created when they fill a need?
Here is a recent typical example, Obama Touts Job-Killing Tax Plan, written by a "senior fellow at the Cato Institute and chairman of the Institute for Global Economic Growth,"
Some people, in their pursuit of profit, benefit their fellow humans by creating new or better goods and services, and then by employing others. We call such people entrepreneurs and productive workers.
Others are parasites who suck the blood and energy away from the productive. Such people are most often found in government.
Perhaps the most vivid description of what happens to a society where the parasites become so numerous and powerful that they destroy their productive hosts is Ayn Rand’s classic novel “Atlas Shrugged.” ...
Actually, "the Rich" Don't "Create Jobs," We Do
Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future: "You hear it again and again, variation after variation on a core message: if you tax rich people it kills jobs. You hear about 'job-killing tax hikes,' or that 'taxing the rich hurts jobs,' 'taxes kill jobs,' 'taxes take money out of the economy,' 'if you tax the rich they won't be able to provide jobs.' ... on and on it goes. So do we really depend on 'the rich' to 'create' jobs? Or do jobs get created when they fill a need?"
Read the Article The conservative "producer and parasite" anti-tax philosophy is fundamentally at odds with the concepts of democracy (which they proudlyacknowledge - see more here, and here) and should be understood and criticized as such. Taxes do not "take money out of the economy" theyenable the economy. The rich do not "create jobs, We, the People create jobs
