39. Do you really want to create shitloads of jobs?

Here's how you recognize a rich Republican: given the choice of paying $1 in increased taxes or $10 to entities outside the government, they will gladly shell out the $10.

If you create a job you get to deduct or depreciate salary, training expenses and equipment.

Therefore, if you want jobs to be created in vast numbers, raise the corporate rate to 45%.
