Alrighty then, "job creators". If you make more than 1 million you can either hire ten people
and pay them a living wage fulltime with benefits or you can pay your share of taxes that will go to services to help run the government.

Corporation Owners, the deal goes the same for you. For every million you make, you have to hire ten employees. And inversely, for every employee you fire or let go, while making more than a million a year, you pay a tax.


Create your fucking brains out

8. Any employer who lays workers off and sends their jobs overseas ...
should have to cover all unemployment costs for the workers AND provide job retraining until the workers can find jobs that pay at least 75% of what they were making. They should also lose any tax breaks they have been receiving.

On the other hand, any employer who brings outsourced jobs back to the United States and hires new workers should receive tax incentives.

Of course, that is just my pipe dream. We could never get Congress or the President to sign such legislation. I personally fear they work for the rich and the big corporations - not for us.

7. Besides Tax Accountants & Attorney's
possibly a gardener, nanny, housekeeper...

As for those job creators in corporate America, they can't send jobs overseas fast enough.
