hohoho

Hohoho  merry Christmas. Right?  No one knows if it will be nice or not. Everyone is hoping that the shoppers come in hourdes, and that they all spend the dough$$. That would make us all happy, I think.
Meanwhile, the two political parties sit and collectively pound their puds!
Jobs Bill or not, tax the rich, or not, one thing is for sure; Without jobs, the old adage about "build it and they will come", doesn't hold water.  You can cut taxes on the wealthy all you want, but it will not stimulate job creation. NO smart business man will expand, hire, or otherwise grow his business without there being sufficient  DEMAND for his goods/services!  People spending money, is the engine of demand. People need good paying jobs in order to earn enough to live, and help "drive" this beast we call our economy.
