It's about time someone wrote about this

Kerry said "He will fight to restore the jobs lost under Bush in the first 500 days of his administration." (via Kerry's webpage). Well isn't that special. Through which magic wand is he going stop the outsourcing? Bush isn't any better, he's passing tax cut after tax cut while increasing spending. Yay! A Deficit! In reality, the person(s) who create jobs isn't the President. It's the entrepreneurs, and this article goes into much greater detail than I will. But bottom, line is we as a country are lazy. We expect everything to be handed to us on a silver platter. If we get fat from eating too much fast food, it's not our fault, it must be McDonalds. We need people to take a chance, get out in the world and start a small business. Even if the President (whomever it is) creates 100,000 new jobs, how are we, the taxpayers, going to pay for it? How are municipalities going to pay those 10,000 fire fighters or policemen after the government says, "Good luck you're own your own now" after the money runs out. As I stated in my Nader rant, we cant work from the top down. You have to start with small businesses and expand from there. Waiting for the goverment to create you a job will probably do one of two things. One, it will have you waiting an awfully long time to get a job. Or two, you'll have a job until the money runs out and then you'll be unemployed.
For those of you who are curious I'm currently leaning towards the position of Anybody but Bush, unless its Kerry.
