[/b]When do we all finally admit that tax cuts don't create jobs? Ask a Kansan, they'll tell you.
Oh no? That's news to Obama. I guess you forgot that with great fanfare he cut the payroll tax a few years ago. And then there are sales tax "holidays." I guess all those Democrat mayors are wrong too.
Neither Bill Clinton nor George Bush caused a GLOBAL recession.
No they didn't. Everyone working together did.

There have been 4 global recessions since WWII. It's part of economic cycles...boom and bust.
You have global recessions and national recessions.

Most likely they are going to go with a third party sales companies. It's a trend in many sales forces with high turnover and low payoff per sale. For instance, if you get a call to subscribe to your local paper, that call is probably coming from a call center 5 states away that is pitching paper subscriptions for 20 different papers.

Chances are, these layoffs have been in the works for years now. Companies don't just up and let go a large portion of their staff. It is a long, thought out process and probably had nothing to do with the tax bill.
“With these investments, we expect to add thousands of new direct and indirect jobs,” Comcast said in a statement on Dec. 21, a week after the layoffs reportedly took place. The company also promised over 100,000 of their employees a $1,000 bonus as a result of the lower corporate tax rate. According to a Comcast spokesperson speaking with the Inquirer, the fired salespeople will now get a, “$1,000 supplemental severance payment.”
