The perfect model for creating jobs is right before our eyes. It’s been made manifest countless times before in our history but it’s on display right now in Texas:
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 214,000 net new jobs were created in the United States from August 2009 to August 2010. Texas created 119,000 jobs during the same period. If every state in the country had performed as well, we’d have created about 1.5 million jobs nationally during the past year, and maybe “stimulus” wouldn’t be such a dirty word. ** What does Austin know that Washington doesn’t? At its simplest: Don’t overtax and -spend, keep regulations to a minimum, avoid letting unions and trial lawyers run riot, and display an enormous neon sign saying, “Open for Business.”
Reagan showed the way in our recent history and in the process also clearly exposed the leftist model that kills jobs and the economy. Some among us still cling stubbornly to that job killing model and unfortunately, our country is still in its grips. The choice is clear. Individual opportunity comes when individuals are set free of big government control and oppression.
Set yourself free; set employers free…vote for smaller government and low taxes in November.
