if he had a need to expand his production, he would already be hiring...if he isn't hiring it is because there is no need to expand his production, no increased demand and it makes no sense to add employees, if he gets a tax credit to add employees that really aren't needed because the demand isn't there he's stuck with the overall cost of new hires, bad business model...do you think a tax credit to add employees is magically going to increase demand to support the expense of these new employees? maybe we need a purchasing tax credit for his buyers to purchase more to increase his demand to support the new employees that he will add as a result of the hiring tax credit????
you don't hire unless there is work to do...the left views a "job" as an entitlement and a guarantee with perks that someone is just supposed to provide for you regardless of whether or not you are really needed(see any union dominated workplace) and continue to provide for you even after you stop working....
having actual work to do-that's the incentive to hire...not a tax credit from the federal goverment.......there's nothing that govenment can do to "make" companies hire more people....
