LL> Hello Bob,   
      
    MM>>> I can agree with you entirely even if Romney was president   
    MM>>> jobs WOULD NOT be created. I think i would like to see a   
    MM>>> capital gains tax cut if you keep someone at 250% above the   
    MM>>> poverty level employed for over a year.   
      
   BK>>Wrong move. All they would do is cut a job somewhere and add one   
   BK>>somewhere else.   
      
    LL> Or rehire the same person at lesser pay.   
      
   BK>>Besides, the best thing to encourage job creation, in the long   
   BK>>run, would be to raise capital gains rates.   
      
    LL> Not really.  In order to make money you have to spend money.   
    LL> Preferably other people's money.  That is the ticket for   
    LL> success. Having a policy of "soak the rich" is not a   
    LL> solution, but rather a recipe for disaster.  Business and   
    LL> labor need each other.  If one or the other is eliminated   
    LL> (or become inconsequential and/or insignificant), both die.   
      
    Which is irrelevant to what I said. This country was a lot more   
    prosperous with a higher capital gains rate.   
      
    See, with a higher capital gains rate they make their money by   
    building a company and selling a product. With the low capital   
    gains rate they make their money but building a company and   
    selling the company.   
      
    Henry Ford proved you can get rich by building a company and   
    paying higher wages and selling the product. When you are   
    selling the company you get more if it has lower wages.
