Government Create Jobs? Not If You Mean Something Productive

SEE HERE Politicians never learn. They are seduced by the sweet sound of their own voices. They propose to "create jobs" by spending the public treasure. The problem is, as has been repeatedly pointed out, that this is like taking a bucket of water out of one end of a swimming pool and then dumping it into the other end. The treasure stolen from the people is simply spent by another body, indeed a body less responsible because they are spending other people's money. Thomas Sowell points out that the Great Depression was actually caused by and extended by government despite the many myths told about the New Deal. It was all smoke and mirrors then and it is all smoke and mirrors now. We need to get government out of the business of "creating jobs." The only jobs it creates are more bureaucrats. We don't need that since we have way too many already.
