As ExxonMobil increased its income from 2005 to 2008, it actually eliminated 3,800 jobs. And as Koch Industries gained $16 billion in net worth, it eliminated 13,000 jobs. Any questions?

1. Corporations only create the jobs they need to create to get the job done.

Corporations, the wealthy, the 'job creators' will NEVER create jobs for the purpose of increasing employment.

If we want them to create jobs in this country, we must make it too expensive for them to create jobs overseas. 'Free trade' is destructive to ALL parties.

2. The bigger they are, the fewer jobs per dollar of income. In general.
