HILLARY CLINTON: Don't let anybody tell you that its corporations and businesses that create jobs. You know that old theory, trickle-down economics. That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly. One of the things my husband says when people ask him what he brought to Washington, he says I brought arithmetic.

The biggest employer in the United States are small business, not corporations.
Small businesses employ WAY more people, and treat them way, way better.

Consumers create jobs not the wealthy.
People buying tv's computer's and cell phones, tax breaks create nothing but more inequality.

Yet the democrat platform kills small business. Besides she seemed to say any business. Reread the quote. She wants everyone to be employed by the government like any good commie does.

I'd be willing to bet that the Honey Boo-Boo crowd votes for the GOP down the line just like the Duck Dynasty crowd. Basically, poor dumb hillbilly's who think they've actually got a chance of being rich some day and spend what spare cash they have on scratch off lottery tickets.

OK, I can understand that to an extent, it takes some wealth to start a company to buy the tech and supplies to have the parts for the people you hire and Pay to build the item the consumer is going to buy,,, right?
I mean, my husband and I are doing well being retired and all, but we could not start a company to build gokarts and hire and pay people to build them so we could sell them, we aren't Wealthy or have that kind of disposable income to invest or to use in a start up.
We can plan for a future trip or vacation to our Condo in China, but we couldn't pay someone's salary.
So,, I do think the Wealthy or the a group of Investors, get together and invest in an individual who has the knowledge to get the company up and running with a item that the Consumer is willing to pay for.
But still, the wealthy or the Investors are investing to pay the Wages of the Employee that produces the item,,,, Hopefully, The Consumer Wants!
Am I wrong?

I have had multiple relative retire wealthy only to be broke within 5 years because of medical costs, hopefully you and your don't experience this but it highly likely you will.
If they don't, how do they expand and grow?
