Destroying Jobs In Order To Create Jobs?

Hillary Clinton spent several days following her nomination touring Pennsylvania and Ohio bashing Trump over jobs. I would find this particularly amusing if it wasn't so sad. These are rust belt states in large part due to the very same policies espoused by Hillary and the Democrat Party. Hillary wants to shut down coal mining, an industry that employed 2,923 people in Ohio and 7,938 in Pennsylvania [Source: www.nma.org]. She also opposes the petroleum industry which employs 255,100 people in Ohio with an average salary of  $75,792 a year and 339,000 in Pennsylvania with an average salary of $84,353 a year. [Source: www.api.org] Apparently Hillary's plan is to destroy these existing solidly middle-class jobs and replace them with new jobs she will create.

According to its website, Trump International has 22,450 employees. If you discount political positions that pay women less than their male counterparts and "no show" jobs like the one she arranged for Chelsea, how many private sector jobs has Hillary ever created?

If Pennsylvanians and Ohioans vote for Hillary and they lose their jobs, they have no one to blame but themselves; not even Hillary because she told you exactly what she was going to do.

  1. How backwards is her plan to "kill" goodpaying jobs? And she has no concrete plans to replace any of them. This is the same old rhetoric we here over and over again, like jobs "magically" appear out of nowhere. They never put out any specifics.

  2. Trump needs to win PA and OH. Hopefully voters in those 2 battleground states will realize their livlihoods are at stake and they vote accordingly.
