    Most fab jobs are relatively simple, something that a reasonably bright youngster can do with an associate’s degree at most.

    Then when he gets to be 30ish, he’ll get sick of those 7:30 AM production meetings with everyone pointing fingers at each other, and go get a real
    job. ;)

    Cheers

    No. It's typical lefty money-throwing money-wasting.

    If government wants to encourage businesses to create jobs, they
    should do LESS.

    If government wants to encourage businesses to create jobs, t. Whey
    should do LESS.

    Fascism is a government and a business; fascism is very common because
    it's such a natural arrangement. Who likes competition? Government
    doesn't like competition. Business doesn't, either.

    This isn't actually true - it's one more bit of big business propaganda,
    like climate change denial

    Sadly, John Larkin is a gullible sucker for that kind well-promoted
    nonsense.
