After four years with virtually no job growth,

[screembloodymurder]

the Bush administration still clings to its "tax cuts create jobs" rationalization. Why do the Dem's let them hide behind this supply side defense? For months the pundits have told us how the jobs are coming and month after month the job numbers disappoint. Now the pundits have the gall to question their own job numbers. When will these guys realize, demand drives growth!

2. There are jobs, just not in America , or for Americans

Americans are losing zillions of jobs to outsourced workers in other countries(India,S. Africa,Canada to name a few)and USA is not only allowing it but giving the companies that offshore HUGE TAX BREAKS!!!!USA is also allowing too many immigrants to have work visas come in and take what jobs remain!!!! On top of all this, Shrub wants to allow Mexicans "to come in and take the jobs that Americans won't do"-if there are any left!!! I, for one , won't deal with companies that outsource. Playtex is now laying off workers and planning on outsourcing-I read that on the MSNBC website today. I will not buy their products from here on and I will write them a letter and tell them why.
