11. "job creation" is no sacrifice
Mon Aug 1, 2016, 12:58 PM

unless you're creating not-for-profit gigs for the disabled at a goodwill store, it's a stretch to even claim "job creation" as charitable, let alone sacrificial.

fundamentally, "job creation" is performed in response to some demand for goods and services, with increased profit and/or market share as the endgame. how is this, in any conceivable way, a sacrifice? at worst it's a gamble or a straight-up bad decision, and i don't recall serious discussion of the painful sacrifices made by roulette players at tRump's casinos.
