Raise Taxes, Lose Jobs

From Global Economic Analysis: Thanks to Illinois governor Pat Quinn and the Illinois legislature Illinois Loses Most Jobs in the Nation
"In a trend that continues to worsen, more Illinoisans found themselves unemployed in the month of July.
Illinois lost more jobs during the month of July than any other state in the nation, according to the most recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report. After losing 7,200 jobs in June, Illinois lost an additional 24,900 non-farm payroll jobs in July. The report also said Illinois’s unemployment rate climbed to 9.5 percent. This marks the third consecutive month of increases in the unemployment rate.
Illinois started to create jobs as the national economy began to recover. But just when Illinois’s economy seemed to be turning around, lawmakers passed record tax increases in January of this year. Since then, Illinois’s employment numbers have done nothing but decline.
When it comes to putting people back to work, Illinois is going backwards. Since January, Illinois has dropped 89,000 people from its employment rolls.
A combination of high taxes, overspending and red tape do nothing but chase away job creators and leave too many citizens without jobs. Springfield needs to act now and reverse course."

The Democrats, especially the liberal one's like Obama, Crybaby Reid, Shelly Berkley and the Dem's in the Nevada Assembly and State Senate all want to raise taxes, especially, in Nevada, on the mining and casino industries.
The Democrats just don't realize that if you raise taxes, even on the most wealthy, you are going to lose jobs. It's been proven time and time again.
But the liberals just sing just like Peter Griffin. They sing so loudly that they don't want to listen to common sense because they just don't hear that their philosophy has been debunked.
