How They Think

Can the myth of “certainty” be far behind? HUH?

“ Can the myth of “certainty” be far behind? Employers don’t create jobs, customers do. This week, business owners themselves exploded the myth that they are the job creators. Previously we’d offered the argument that businesses don’t create jobs. “Customers are the engine of capitalism and of jobs,” we wrote. “Employees are hired when a willing buyer shows up at the door. Jobs are not created for any other reason.” Now business owners have weighed in to provide corroboration. Reporting this week in the New York Times, Mokoto Rich interviewed Jeffery Braverman, owner of Nutsonline, in Cranford, N.J.. Even a $4,000 tax cut would not cause him to hire anyone. “You still need to have the business need to hire,” says Braverman. “Business demand is what drives hiring.” [blah-blah-blah] ” The debunked myth (I stumbled upon), according to the Jimmy Zuma dude,  is that "Employers create jobs"  Zuma's actual goal here is to defend Obama's crappy Jobs Bill.  To buttress the Democrat's mythical claim  of being able to create jobs (by stealing money and giving it to Solyndra).   This government has certainly destroyed millions of jobs—   with walls of anti-business taxes and regulations, but it has never created a single sustainable  private sector job.  Just like the Soviet Union never did.  And oh!—   it's certainly true that in a land where nobody has any money, there are no customers,  but that's  a different problem; albeit  from the same source.  Any good entrepreneur will however get around that, and create new  wealth, but only if democrats stay the hell out of their way.  That's not a myth. THIS JUST IN OMFG!  We'll be rolling in money now!!
