How can we create more jobs during tough times?
What could be done to create more jobs in this economy?
PAUL CARBONARO, Springboro: “That’s what they talk about every day in the White House — and it’s a really tough question. One way would be to give people every incentive to earn more, do more and think creatively. A flat tax would help people do just that, and it’s the fairest way to tax, too.”
BRENDA MUTERSPAW, Xenia: “Quit outsourcing our jobs.”
DOUG HOUSTON, Yellow Springs: “I think it starts with education. We need to train young people to be more in tune with high-tech jobs of the future. We also need to make higher education more affordable, rather than subsidizing automobile jobs.”
JOHN KNIGHT, Spring Valley Twp.: “First, lower taxes. Then we’ve got to start making things, manufacturing things again. I don’t think casinos are going to do it. Casinos won’t create new wealth. The only way to do that is to make things here.”
JENNIFER VALLARAUTTO, Mason: “Stimulate purchasing with lower interest rates to companies, to encourage them to buy.”
MIKE GLEASON, Columbus: “Lower taxes, for one, and put more emphasis on small business. Small businesses make the economy thrive — entrepreneurs.”

All 5 people in the article had excellet common sense - cut taxes! It works every time. And why is it that we are all told to do with less but the Federal government is NEVER asked to do with less?

For those who may disagree to the above simply look at the governments budget - each and every year is gets bigger - every year the government votes itself more money to spend - democrats and republicans!
