President Obama has said that job creation is job one - fair enough. In the same speech he said American Industry should stop cuttings costs by becoming more productive. If you can find a way to improve productivity by having one person do the work that previously required two, he is against it. The man is a modern day Luddite.

If he actually wants to create jobs he can do three things to get the economy rolling again:

1. Kill this monstrosity of a healthcare bill that will immediately raise taxes and provide no benefit until 2013 at the earliest.
2. Kill cap and trade and do not go to Copenhagen.
3. Immediately reduce taxes on businesses, Bussiness creates jobs and wealth, government cannot.

For those of you who believe that unions and liberal policies are good for the United States, go look at Detroit, now a third world city but in 1950, the richest city in the world.
