Targeting youth unemployment, Hillary Rodham Clinton plans to propose tax credits to encourage businesses to train young people and offer apprenticeships to develop lifelong job skills.
Clinton’s campaign said she would outline a proposed tax credit of $1,500 for every apprentice that a business hires during a forum Wednesday at Trident Technical College in North Charleston, South Carolina. The state holds the first-in-the-South presidential primary.
The Democratic presidential candidate said last weekend she would begin outlining policy proposals during the summer, and the economic agenda item aims to connect with young workers and black young adults. …

How about letting schools educate young people so they can learn real useful stuff?.....................what a concept!...........
Apprentice is another word for new, uneducated employee. Why does an employee need a bribe?
Sounds like Corporate Welfare to me. Why does Hillary think she has to bribe those big nasty corporations that she says she hates? 15 dollars per hour and Obamacare too expensive for them? She just publicly dissed the whole Obama presidency.
She's the picture-perfect image of a "public nuisance".....
a troublesome angry woman. What used to be known as
a "Common Scold".....a nuisance to the public peace.
The querolous Hillary wagging her finger, berating
Americans for actually achieving the American Dream.
VOTERS NEED TO REJECT POWER-HUNGRY HILLARY'S SCHEMES:
It's nauseating that the Clintons, alone, want to decide who gets the American Dream....using govt power and our tax dollars.
Yes, like reading, writing and arithmetic!
The paperwork for claiming this would likely far exceed the money gained. If they’re prepared to underwrite the entire cost, including the risk, fine. (Actually, not fine with me, but it would be with many employers. Likely that’s the only deal most would consider.)
Taught to the tune of a hickory stick?
Remember when schools had ‘shop class’?................................
Today you need a taser.........................
Yes, I even had a business math class in High School. Oh, and if you couldn’t pass the test you failed and did not go to the next grade.
I wonder if they would rather have a Job than the alternative?
A step and a half away from WPA 2.0
While I do not think the raise in minimum wage was the sole reason for the closings, I think it certainly was a major contributing factor. Bottom line, liberals fail at basic economic models. You can also be assured they will blame the closings and job loss on everything but the increase in min wage. Even the ones losing their jobs will blame other factors.
Maybe the GAP thought by increasing the wage liberals would flock to their stores to buy stuff. I think the GAP was already in trouble long before the wage increase. Which makes me wonder why they would make a decision to dramatically increase their labor cost. Maybe, the increase was cover for the impending closings.....
Tax credits? Why doesn’t she just give those businesses the ability to let vast amounts of their earnings go unreported to the IRS, just like her and Bill do.
