238. Just Do It RIGHT!

I'm getting tired of the constant throwing of money at symptoms to remove the pain of probems! Why not address the problem head on and do what's right? Why do we prolong the agony of the unemployed by continuing to throw bread crumbs their way to give them the sense of helping them when all that it being done is prolonging their unemployment? Jobs are not available because small businesses are uncertain of the future -- mainly their costs, which include health insurance, taxes, labor union salary raises, etc. So, what is the problem and what is the symptom? The symptom is unemployment. The problem is small businesses need risk relief. So, CUT CORPORATE TAXES and give them something they can hang their hat on. Let them IMMEDIATELY shop for health insurance across state lines. Curb the constant interrupting and bullying by unions. I'll guarantee doing those three things will spur small business growth. Remember, they don't necessarily need higher consumer demand to grow their business into NEW markets -- more regions, states, countries, products, etc. Give the small businesses relief! The symptom will disappear and the problem will be resolved. Now you might understand why the JOBS bill mentioned here is not totally accepted. Why throw money at highways only? Might as well dump cash on the streets. To increase jobs, you have to increase equipment, meaning there will be far less jobs created because of new equipment costs. And who gets the money and jobs? Government. We need to stop frivolously dropping money from helicopters -- think of dropping food over Africa. Does that incentivize those people to work? Does it create jobs? The money we offer is nothing more than food coupons for our unemployed. Our unemployed don't come close in comparison to starved Africans."'The most vulnerable families in America are going to suffer because of this political decision by one senator,' said Senator Dick Durbin..." How? Living in the house they took too much of a loan out for? Fast food, chips, liquor and soda? Here's a thought -- why not limit Food Stamps ONLY to nutritious food! Sorry for sounding callous, but somebody needs to address the PROBLEM, NOT the SYMPTOMS. Meanwhile President O wants the Republicans to stop playing hardball with him and negotiate when HE WON'T! What a leader! It's time to clear Congress of incompetents, starting with Pelosi and Reid -- and we can't ignore Mr. Babble (Frank) and Mr. Cheat (Rangel).
