the federal government does not offer pensions anymore. They offer new employees the Thrift Savings Plan (a 401K) with up to 5% matching contributions.

Will the tax cuts be tax cuts or will they be well fare to individuals who did pay federal taxes in the first place (i.e. “earned income tax credits”)? If government can create private sector jobs so easily then why wait….why have they not been creating private sector jobs all along?

I see that up to 40% of President Elect Obama’s fiscal stimulus may be tax cuts….sounds great…but don’t companies have to make a PROFIT to get the benefit of tax cuts?

It’s the 80/20 rule. 80 precent of us support the 20 percent in goverment. Anyone in business knows that.

The creation of the new government jobs is guaranteed. The private sector jobs will fall way short. New name for SOS!
