Not only that, but the biggest concern I have right now is Kerry's promise to create 10 MILLION new jobs while President. First of all, how? This cannot be a mandate to force private companies to hire people because they're told to....it has to be in response to business needs. So, will these be gov't jobs (IOW, even more taxes so we get to pay their salaries?). Secondly, recent unemployment reports show us standing at 5.6 or 5.7%, which is basically a saturated economy, meaning if you want to work, you CAN find it. He wants to have more jobs than employees, the way I see it. It just smells of too much government oversight...
