Appearing at a Boston rally for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Martha Coakley on Friday, Hillary Clinton told the crowd gathered at the Park Plaza Hotel not to listen to anybody who says that “businesses create jobs.”
“Don’t let anybody tell you it’s corporations and businesses create jobs,” Clinton said.
“You know that old theory, ‘trickle-down economics,’” she continued. “That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.”
The last thing this country needs is a person who believes this nonsense!
UPDATE: This from Godfather Politics:
“If corporations and businesses don’t create jobs, then who or what does? Government? Governments don’t create jobs. All government jobs are “created” by taking money from businesses, corporations, and workers through taxes. If businesses and corporations didn’t exist, government wouldn’t have any money to tax, thus, there wouldn’t be any government jobs.
“Microsoft was founded in 1975. Prior to this date, Microsoft did not employ anybody. Today, Microsoft employs 126,000 people worldwide. Microsoft does not stand alone as a corporation. Millions of other people are employed indirectly from a company like Microsoft.
“The same is true of Apple, General Electric, Wal-Mart, and every other big company that liberals seem to hate for their “greed.””
