Well, This Is Just Silly

I really could not believe that the headline was serious when I first read it; "Obama meets with CEOs to urge them to start hiring."

If you read the article itself, it seems he really did that. He asked the CEOs to spend some of the extra money they have sitting around by hiring some people. The CEOs apparently asked what the hell the new hires were going to be doing, since the businesses don't have any work for the new hires to perform. Anyway, they told the President no. They said they will consider hiring when business picks up, which actually makes sense to me.

Does President Obama think that businesses exist for the purpose of providing jobs for people, whether those jobs are productive or not?

    No silly, business exist to pay taxes to local, state and federal governments and to provide health care benefits to employees.

    Yes. I know this is true because the mantra of the Republicant Party has been that tax cuts create jobs.
