I Am A Job Creator........

We need to mount a campaign with buttons, bumper stickers, posters and signs that say "I Am A Job Creator".

The commentary that would go along with the campaign would say something to the effect that as a member of the 99% we spend the money and buy the goods that makes the economy tick. When we spend our money - we put people to work - to make more goods; to take care of us when we are sick; to deliver our mail; to fix our cars; to wait on us when we shop or eat; to help us enjoy our vacations; to maintain our houses, roads and bridges; to enhance our electrical grid; to educate us; to protect us; etc.

Pay us a decent wage. Put us to work and we use the money we make to fuel the economy. We make it work.

We are the real "job creators". We provide the means for the 1% to fund the companies that make the goods and provide the services to allow us to fuel the economy.

It's not rocket science folks - "I Am A Job Creator" and I am proud of it.
