The Republican Solution

Gosh, the Republicans do have a plan to create jobs in America. All we have to do is reduce taxes on corporations and the most wealthy citizens to 0%, end all oversight, throw away all regulations on business, and then just stand back and watch the jobs bubble up from the muck.

Does anyone really believe this bullshit? There is no empirical evidence for it at all. The eight year Bush era, which was a wild-and-crazy period for doing just this sort of thing, did nothing for jobs.

Meanwhile, the Republicans want to butcher government spending and that means, in effect, throwing all kinds of people out of work --- thousands more jobless. Do they ever think any of this stuff through?!

But, of course, their real agenda items are to end abortions, bash gays and lesbians, and put the church back into the state. Funny, Republicans are all against government intervention except when it comes to pushing off their "morality" on the rest of us.
