Title: Jobs
Post by: Carolyn Branagan on August 31, 2010, 10:53:58 AM

I was pleased to read the Jobs Policy proposed by Republican gubernatorial candidate Brian Dubie. He’s right on. Dubie’s proposals will go a long way to give our state the structure needed to climb out of its fiscal woes.

The benefit in cutting taxes in a recession is Economics 101.When the tax burden is lowered there is more resource available for business, industry and private taxpayers to re-invest in the growing economy. There’s no doubt that holding government spending in check and relaxing governmental regulations will encourage job and business growth.   

What we need in Vermont are more job opportunities, a stable tax system and predictable government spending. This cannot happen without the legislature and administration working together in close communication. Dubie has the right idea. Vermonters will benefit from his plan.

Carolyn,

I am hopeful that the solution to our economic situation can be solved via politics.  Hope and reality are often on the opposite ends of the playing field.

Election year rhetoric is like a song that you can not get out of your head.  The same thing over & over...

"wait until the obama care kicks in "

Another dooms day(ish) claim.  Unfortunately, unlike the economic crash, and bursting of the tech bubble, and housing bubble, government spending just keeps creeping up and up and up so MOST people become so acclimated to it that they don't change their ways and push back against the political establishment and entitlement programs.

Summary: "Congress votes to privatize Capitol Hill Food Service"

Congress can't run a simple food service program for a small groupl of people.  I can't believe people want to trust them (the gov't in general) with running health care for an entire nation.
