"I know how to create jobs."

"You create jobs by doing X, Y, and Z"


Okay, now just tell us what X, Y, and Z are.


I mean, if I tell you "I know how to bake cookies" then certainly I can describe how that is done.

For chocolate chip, I double the recipe and add another egg.

So you take 5 eggs, 2 cups of shortening, two cups of white sugar, one cup of brown sugar - mix that

then add 3 teaspoons of salt, two of baking soda, a large dash of cinammon, and a large dash of ginger (the latter two being my substitute for vanilla), half a cup of chocolate chips (or M & Ms), and five cups of flour.

Mix that, then flatten pieces of dough on a cookie tray, and bake for 15 minutes, or until browned, at 325.

In a similar way, Spence could describe his secret recipe for job creation. If, that is, he really cared about creating jobs, and not just about getting a powerful job where he could help to enrich the rich and empower the powerful.
