Waiting for the jobs...or Godot?

I hate to get political on the WWW but, C'mon, politicians! The jobs are waiting to be created, and Americans are waiting for you to get off your butts and create them.

Businesses aren't going to hire until they feel confident about the U.S. economy, which nobody does. And tax breaks won't change that. Have the tax breaks of the last several years made anyone feel more secure? Of course not.

That's why it's now up to the government; the infernal institution that got its citizens into this mess is now the only one that can get us out. By creating some frickin' jobs! Lots of them.

It's simple really. The market requires consumers to spend money. Consumers require jobs to have the money to spend. Without employment, there are no consumers. There is no way around that.

So what is everyone waiting for?

Being unemployed is like...

Being forced to play a perpetual game of tag where you are always "it." Not quite as humiliating as your first time at summer camp but also less fun.
