lol, you may have a different take on my post if you read it again this morning with a good cup of coffee. I was saying anyone can hire someone and most people hire using corporations.
Some people say corporations hire employees but that's like saying guns kill people and pencils do arithmetic and beds have sex. Beds do not have sex and pencils can't do arithmetic and corporations don't hire. However while most killing is not done with a gun, most hiring is done using a corporation. Most employees work for corporations with hundreds of employees (census link here). There are people on this thread that say we want more jobs in the US. Fine. They should hire someone. I have and it's not that hard.
Of course hiring would be a lot easier without all the taxes --especially those import taxes.
“The thing is that it’s really not that hard to hire someone, and one of the easiest ways is to own a corporation and make it hire people. Right now in the US there’s about $18T worth of corporations that employ about 120M Americans. That comes out to about $150K per job. Imagine if the all the gold bugs on the FR dumped their gold & bought stocks —we’d end up with higher employment, plus a lot of freepers would be much better off.”
First, Gold bugs or anyone buying stocks would not guarantee a single job as the stocks bought have already been issued. The effect would most likely be a short term increase in the stock price and not new stock be issued. Even if this created more favorable borrowing terms for the corp. or corps,that would not guarantee one single new job.
