I believe this is a must read for anyone worried about jobs, where they come from, and who's undecided about the candidate and political philosophy most qualitfied to help create more of them.

=== the need for work sits at the top of our national agenda. Indeed, as the 2004 election cycle revs up, the only thing that President Bush and Senator Kerry agree about is that today we are not creating enough new jobs


Yeah you rite ...

What have got --- 10-15 years, tops -- to wait it out before the Boomers start leaving, and dying, in droves?

I expect the Artificial Womb and our President's legitimizing of the manufacture of human life as crops to come in pretty handy sooner rather than later.

(Assuming our "US/AIDs" style stealth sterilization programs abroad proceed apace and we run out of subhumans to draft in as faux citizens of our Welfare State.)

A good article. One does sense that we will soon evolve into a socialist nation. Not because any would favor public control over the means of production; but, because only the state is robust enough to operate (abet inefficiently) through the ever growing minefield of regulation and litigation. We have too many lawyers and they are multiplying like so much crab grass.

It is a must read. The three job-killers: over-regulation, high taxes, and out-of-control tort law. Until we address these, we'll find ourselves having a harder and harder time trying to grow our economy.
