When will the BUSH tax cuts start creating jobs?
Why is it taking so long? The Tax cuts started 10 years ago.
@Tommy - Because the CONS held it as a condition for extending unemployment benefits. Genius.

Those are the only ones left. Think how much worse it would have been without them.

government would be unable to 'create' jobs they might basically wreck them by using elevating taxes so as that employer has not extra to take a place. The Bush tax cuts, supply the human beings back somewhat of their investment money and that for the time of turn has probable saved some jobs that would otherwise have been eradicated. Obama has promised to create Jobs and he ended them like with the automobile dealerships that have been powerful and ordered to close besides putting 50 human beings for one and all, out of artwork then destroyed yet another 24,000 along with his oil drilling moratorium. Now he desires to end the trucking industry in this united states with new extreme 'standards' for emissions from the vehicles. there is on no account a stable time to stress this rubbish on the trucking industry and by using no potential in this already depressed, economic gadget.

First things first. Trickle down is on the way. The Reagan Years might start trickling down in another 2 or 3 decades. Then, 2 or 3 decades after that, tax cut jobs. Can't you be patient?

The already did - about 9 million.
Do you REALLY think just because the Democrats' PROMISE of the largest tax INCREASE in all of known time (not an exaggeration) is still a year away that an 8 year-old tax-cut should STILL be creating MORE jobs or are you a liar?

You can tax the middle-class and rich 100% and you still couldn't get
a welfare bum off the couch:
Unless you told him the crack-dealer just showed up outside.

They "created or saved" jobs. You can no longer just count jobs created. That's racist, yo.

Man I get sick of this question. It is asked 20 times a day at least.
The Bush tax cuts have nothing to do with this recession NOTHING.
The subprime mortgage mess is what has caused unemployment.
You are trying to tie two unrelated things together just to try to promote your pro taxation agenda.
If you want to pay more in taxes there is nothing stopping you.
