Roundtable: How to create U.S. jobs? - Galesburg, IL - The Register-Mail

QUESTION:

WASHINGTON D.C. —

What strategy would you suggest for creating jobs in the United States?

Remove onerous regulations, cut waste
Some large corporations at least appear to have a lot of cash on hand. Consumers seem to be willing to buy although without using their credit cards quite so recklessly. The hang-up is uncertainty. From large corporations to small businesses there’s a wait-and-see mentality. The key, therefore, is to remove the uncertainty.

Last week the president announced the elimination of some of the government regulations. Not as many were removed as were added. As long as the uncertainty remains, jobs will elude us unless we start reversing the situation. I would suggest: Start eliminating the most onerous regulations. Next, start eliminating the waste and redundancy that was reported by the GAO last March. They can be done simultaneously. Once this is seen as a serious effort confidence will begin to emerge and hiring will begin again. If no serious effort is seen, employment will remain stagnant at best.
