How many jobs bills have the Republican-controlled House introduced since

[Frothing Neocon Rage]

they won the majority?
@ Hugh - Dems introduced three jobs bills between 2008 and 2010. All three of them were filibustered by Republicans and killed in committee

@ Dark Knight - Spending cuts eliminate government positions. They are the exact OPPOSITE of jobs bills.

@ An Abroad American - The Chief Executive doesn't create legislation, that's the job of Congress. And Republicans campaigned on a platform of job creation
@ Mr 1911 - Jobs bills don't create jobs, they make it easier for private companies to create jobs. Everybody knows this and your attempt to confuse the issue is disingenuous.

@ Cookie Dog & How Would I Know - Actually the answer is zero. They Republican controlled House has not introduced a single jobs bill. That's verifiable fact.

republicans understand that wasteful govt jobs accomplish nothing and amount to the same thing as drinking your own urine if you are thirsty. What President Coolidge accomplished in two years
FDR couldn't accomplish without finally sending us off to war, destroying the industrial might of europe and killing 400 k Americans in the process. Both faced a depression but FDR saw an opportunity to implement a mountain of social programs that destroyed us and became the great depression. Look it up and you are welcome.

Exactly as many as the Constitution authorizes - NONE. Cutting government spending/pandering/waste is the best possible jobs bill anyone could pass. It would reduce taxes and allow more people to keep more of what they EARN out of the hands of criminal politicians. How much of government employment/spending is actually authorized by the Constitution of the United States? LESS THAN HALF!

By your twisted logic we should all go to work for the government.

 

[Dark Night]

Spending cuts are jobs bills. So, everytime they propose a spending or a tax cut, they are proposing a jobs bill.

 

[Cantankerous]

None, they think that giving billionaries tax cuts is the entent of it.

 

[Hugh Jorgan]

More than the Dems when they had control.

 

[Cookie Dog]

A lot, then they stopped cause Obama and the Dem led Senate told them nothing would come of it.

Let's see. . .2 divided by the square root of 9, add 12, carry the 3. . .none.

 

[An Abroad American]

1-They are not the Chief Executive
2- They didn't say during the campaigns that creating jobs is the Govt duty ! they didn't fool people and say (YES WE CAN) they are REALIST !

Government jobs bills are just giveaways to the rich. The liberals still have not realized that they have been duped by the Democrats for decades by this idea of class warfare. There are more rich liberals than rich conservatives. Obama has more friends on Wall St. then Bush had. If the rich liberals care so much why don't they donate more money to the US government to help pay more for the socialist agenda they support? I will tell you why. Because they want two classes of people. They see themselves as elites, members of the ruling class. They see the rest of us as the workers who will support their lifestyle. Your liberal leaders are not what they pretend to be.

 

[How would I know]

Many.

Trying to stop the Obama policies that are destroying jobs ARE job bills.
