How does raising taxes on "rich" people create jobs?

After lowering taxes in 2003 the US experienced the longest period of economic growth in history. Unemployment averaged around 5% for the whole of the Bush presidency. Now Obama has added hundreds of new taxes and regulations that businesses must cope with.

Everyone has told him that it would inhibit job growth yet you act surprised when this actually happens.

There are many reasons for not seeing an increase in employment at some companies even though they have lower taxation. However that does not mean they are not utilizing the savings to better their businesses and therefore actually putting money into other businesses where some jobs are created. Therefore the job creation is not in your town but another one.

It depends on the business some are using the savings to increase business but that may not actually mean an increase in jobs just more work for those already there and keeping them employed. It takes time for the savings to go from government making the lower taxation rate to the money actually being saved and then the savings turning into being put into the business in various departments. Therefore you many not see the effects for over a year.

It depends on the business and the amount of savings they gain as not all will gain the same amount.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
