Jobs

I keep seeing that “Republicans have no jobs plan”.  This assumes that it is the job of politicians to create jobs.  But ask yourself: when a local architectural firm decides they need a new draft engineer, did the government make that decision?  When a Wendy’s franchise owner decides to build a new location, employees several dozen entry level workers who would otherwise be without jobs, does the government make that decision?  Of course not.

I keep getting accused of repeating talking points.  To the extent I use talking points, they are my own.  Here is today’s: The government can only create jobs it first stole from the private sector.
