“Did you know that the way he turned Godfather’s Pizza around was by closing 20% of the restaurants and laying off some 400 people — some job creator!”

No one goes into business to create jobs. The only reason anyone ever goes into business is to make money. And the only reason a businessman would ever hire somebody is if he helps him make MORE money. Until this simple truth is accepted and embraced (instead of vilified) there will never be job creation.

By cutting expenses and eliminating the non performing restaurants, he made the remaining ones healthy (saving lots of jobs), which allowed him to improve product and service and grow his business, make more money (and add more jobs).

“No one goes into business to create jobs. The only reason anyone ever goes into business is to make money. And the only reason a businessman would ever hire somebody is if he helps him make MORE money.”

Nice contradiction. You sound like those hippies on Wall Street.

Job creation is a result of someone risking their money by starting a business to make money. Making money results in most business owners expanding their businesses and hiring more people, creating more jobs, expanding the tax base, creating a positive economic cycle, and so on.

Do you think business owners, who often work 18 hours a day (Owning a business is 24/7) have it easy?

They risk their investment, put in long hours, have far more responsibilities than their workers and they create jobs.

IDK why you even posted what you did, as you are stating the obvious, and talking as if creating jobs is a bad thing.

Sounds like Cain did the same kind of cost cutting, pairing down, that Romney did at Bain Capital. Interesting. But both of them being businessmen, it makes sense.

I just read the rest of your post and owe you an apology as I jumped the gun and I’m sorry for writing a scathing response without reading the rest of your post.
