Why hasn't the tea party house Introduced a single Jobs Bill Since Taking the house?

[Lester E]

One of the Tea Party house Congress people was on CNN today and the Host asked them how many Jobs bills they have put forth and the guy said 0. Was all that talk about helping with jobs just campaign talk? All of that " Where are the Jobs Mr President"?

 

[Socrates]

Because the GOVERNMENT DOESN'T CREATE PRIVATE SECTOR JOBS. Any legislation made is to create a pro-business environment to they can create the jobs.

 

[john e]

The Tea Party does not need to introduce ANY bills to promote jobs.

The Tea party wants less legislation, get the government the hell out of the way, and jobs will be created.

The Tea Party never talks about creating jobs through government. We talk about getting the government out of the way, and that IS the truth.

As for asking Obummer "where are the jobs", it was his promise, not ours, that is being questioned.

 

[DaffyDilly]

There is a very small "Tea Party" caucus. There isn't enough of them to pass ketchup.

 

[Original Luke]

Because their is no such thing as a jobs Bill. Government needs to get out of the way of job creators, silly!

 

[John Berndt]

They believe government created public jobs cost more private jobs than the public ones that were created due to higher taxes, inflation etc.

 

[Logan]

All that talk was the only way they'd get back in. They knew that but hey, they're repubs, they don't really care about anything else besides keeping dems out of Washington.

 

[World is Watching]

Obama won't cooperate. That makes it very difficult.

 

[Obama Bin Lyin]

Obama is not creating an environment that promotes growth. Tax hikes, ObamaCare, new regulations, etc

 

[On the left and proud]

All talk no action

 

[2012 No More Tokens]

Government is the problem, not the answer, dummy.

 

[toonistcar90]

The problem with the economy right now is to many regulations, not knowing how they are going to affect things, they keep making more regulations, and people are concerned taxes may go up AND it's hard to get loans right now.

Bills won't fix this, burning the red tape and setting long term tax policy that free's capital up for job creation.

Using Keynesian Economics, you will never figure anything out, but it's not complicated. It gets complicated because those who really don't want a free market economy obfuscate the facts purposely to keep you uninformed and confused. That's how you're the best tool

 

[Patient Sailor Tres.]

Eh, you just want to hate on the Tea party. If you actually read and tried to understand their positions, government has nothing to do with job creation. I am sure limited government is something they never taught you in public school, but it has worked time and time again...

 

[Mr. Rational Thinking]

If they make an effort to improve the country, then the general public will assume that Obama is behind the improvement, which will cause his popularity to rise. As long as the country in is bad shape, the Republicans popularity increases.

In others words, the less they do, the more they win. It's all about evicting the black family out of the White House.

 

[SupaStar]

If govt is the problem, then why do so many GOP'ers want to get into it?

To answer your question, they have been too busy cutting money to NPR and Planned Parenthood.
