I can name quite a few wealthy people who make zero.

As I thought, this entire thread is about some overheated fanatic's made-up "issue" that doesn't even exist.

Obama said it all in his speeches..that's "who said this" only he didn't say it all at once and many lemmings don't know how to connect the dots as critical thinking isn't taught in school anymore.

I lost hearing in both my ears. On the left ear the last thing I heard someone scream was "living wage". On my right ear was someone screaming "job creator".


Thanks a bunch majority Americans for being such suckers.

Sheesh when it comes out of a democratic mouth (jobs created [or saved]) ya'll follow this administration like sheep.

But let the right say it it's taken as a lie.

What hypocrites the left are.

How many of you have had a poor guy hire you? How much did he pay you? Benefits? Pension? Vacation time?

Or how about a poor democrat? (I've never seen one in real life).

I guess for some hearing about job creators is a threat. If jobs are created what excuse will there be not to work?

Most of the time when I hear John Boehner speak he says almost any bill coming out of congress hurts the JOB CREATORS. These people have some scam going while shipping their personal money offshore along with decent paying jobs. I bought an iphone over the holidays and it was made in china while apple has almost a 100 billion in cash laying around. Gotta luv the job creators.

As a Republican, I have always hated the term "job creators" with a passion.

No its just a lie. Do you actually think if we all just gave our money to one person they would create even more jobs? Go ahead and give a big bag of money to a rich guy if you like. It also has nothing to do with taxes. We gave away the authority to create money to a private cartel. Now they collect the inflation tax and mortgage interest instead of it being revenue for the state which could eliminate the income tax and fund SS completely. Thus they are sucking money away from all of us with bank credit and ponzi schemes. Is 27 trillion of housing bubble bloat not convincing enough there is a problem?

What is wrong with you people? From 2001 to 2008 the bank ponzi scheme created twice the exiting national debt in bank credit bloat which is now a private interest tax and inflation on a massive scale up to 2008. And now you want them to pay no tax on this bloated carcass as if that is going to solve the problem? We should give these people big bags of money to do it more?

No spending = no iphone purchased = no job for employee.
No, only the top 0.10% are job creators, people like Paris Hilton. The rest of us are just chumps.

It should be the consumer who is the job creator by way of demand.
