As congressional Democrats trip over themselves to find new and innovative ways to entrench more power in Washington, Americans are reminded of those big government agenda items that are already proving hazardous to the economy. At the top of the list, the mere threat of the grossly misnamed Employee Free Choice Act is already stifling job creation even though Speaker Pelosi and her union allies have not yet found a way to turn that bad dream into a reality.
Editorial, “Washington and the Jobs Market,” Wall Street Journal, 11.07.09 While most Americans and some in Washington are opposed to the big government job-killing agenda, it is clear that their voices are being ignored. Uncertainty in the economy – driven by threats to freedom and prosperity like card check, cap-and-tax, and a government takeover of the American health care system – continues to keep businesses on the sidelines unsure of how the rules will change next. As long as our nation’s job creators are hesitant to get back in the game, more Americans will continue to lose. ### |
