You obviously never ran a business.
If they passed a tax credit for employing people, small and big businesses would hire people pronto. And that includes my family business.

Irrelevant, I said DIRECTLY impact [un]employment.
Altering payroll tax, or minimum wage, or regulation/deregulation allow the EMPLOYER varying degrees of freedom and the employer will hire or fire based on that degree of freedom. Ergo, altering those factors are INDIRECT in nature.

Um, here’s an idea; tax everyone’s income, no exceptions or credits or deferments, at a uniform rate.
Yes, this immediately destroys tax-preparation businesses; on the other hand it eliminates the need for the IRS, it eliminates any motivation for “the rich” to seek “tax havens,” and it can be done for a cost of virtually $0*.
