The massive "stimulus" bill Congress is trying to pass is nothing more than a plan to expand government projects. Taking taxpayer money and giving it to contractors to build stuff is not job creation. Expanding economic freedom by allowing current businesses to grow and new ones to form is job creation. New businesses will employ people for the long term and inspire others to create businesses of their own. The so called "stimulus" bill does nothing to create employment opportunities for the thousands of unskilled workers and laid-off retail and tech workers. It is a boon for contractors looking for their next project, though.
California is one of the states that deters business growth with excessive regulations, high taxes, unfair licensing requirements, and wasteful welfare spending. We need to expand economic freedom, not send companies packing to less restrictive states. The ability to exchange goods and services with others is a fundamental right of American citizens and the key to a freer, "stimulated" economy.
