Good News: Bush to Create 8.8 (or is it 10.7?) Million New Jobs


Need some help understanding how Bush's tax cuts create new jobs? Then start HERE. Snippet:
"As US population grows, it takes about 2.2 million new (nonfarm payroll) jobs to keep the employment rate steady-state. To "break even" over his entire term, Bush needs 8.8 million new jobs. He's down 2 million jobs to date, so he'll need 10.7 million jobs in 18 months to leave job-seekers "better off than you were four years ago" when Election Day rolls around."
