I have a suggestion, to help alleviate some of our national debt and tak burden how about we stop paying all these elected officials at our state and federal levels, in my small town city council is a privledge and your not paid so should the senate and congress, most of these guys and calls already had millions to begin with and are living on contributions any way, so no more pay check and no more retirement on uncle sams dime, use this as a learning experience for your next job do your 8 and move on no more life long politicians on capitol hill if you want to lead the people you must be of the people, all of them live better than most of us…. time to take back the power america.

“”"”“We will spend August holding Republicans in the House accountable for eight months of wrong choices for the American people in two areas, jobs and Medicare,” Israel, D-New York said.”"”"”
Then will you hold Pelosi accountable for 4 years of nothing? Obamacare slams the job market.

More government jobs? Federal workers produce no products nor do they sell services.
While some federal employees provide a valuable and necessary service, all federal salaries and generous benefits come from taxes and fees imposed on the private sector. In effect, they are a net drain on the economy.

I don’t understand how campaign sound bites are considered news. To me ‘John Parkinson reports’ reads more like ‘John Parkinson regurgitates democrat positioning’.

As the President of a manufacturing company that hires 147, and has increased our payroll over the last two years, the last people I would trust about job creation are these Democratic leaders. They don’t have a clue. If you want to grow small and medium businesses don’t demonize businesses and their owners, reward the responsible and hold the irresponsible accountable (Have seen that out of DC in 3 years.), control government spending and don’t be in the business of picking winners and losers in business!

Please Obama has just killed any chance for job growth borrowing 2.5 trillion more dollars, lack of manufacturing with his EPA demands, horrific GDP and consumer confidence dropping like a rock. The man is a loser.

There are no jobs and can be no jobs created. We have gutted manufacturing in this country, sold our steel mills, shut our mines, closed our fabric mills. What is there to do that makes global money? Farming, that’s the only real source of income this country has. True wealth is derived from manufacturing and we have none. What a load that we are going to create jobs. What, government building projects in which 90% will be given to illegal aliens? Revoke all the work visa’s, throw out the foreign nationals, doctors, dentists, teachers, lab techs, etc and let Americans work again. Refund the space program, raise import tariffs. Until we get aggressive against the world order we are going to keep going underwater.

They need to start rewarding these companies with incentives for REAL job creation, and penalizing the ones that are cutting heads to grow profit. The Republicans have had the Bush tax cuts for all this time, and all they have done is streamline their operations, which is fine, as long as they aren’t playing the Don’t tax my billions song, but right now they ARE a big part of the problem in this country.
