Title: Proving the GOP conservatives are suckers: The Rich are really job destroyers not "job creators". As the rich got richer, they eliminated jobs.

The chart above showing the relationship between the Koch brothers' net worth and the number of people they employ. And so we see that the net wealth of the Koch brothers has grown, but that wealth has not trickled down in the form of job creation at their company. In fact, the Koch brothers have been JOB DELETERS in favor of padding their bank accounts. I bet if I found the data it would show salaries of their remaining employees have also been reduced.

The ExxonMobil chart above also shows the lack of correlation between rising income and "job creation".

How long will you GOP/conservative/libertarian suckers keep arguing that the rich should be left alone because they are "job creators"?

...the net wealth of the Koch brothers has grown, but that wealth has not trickled down in the form of job creation at their company....

Hmmm... THIS is the quality of articles you post...? With such a title, I would have expected something with.... oh, I don't know, maybe some SUBSTANCE?

They're successful businessmen (whoever they are)... GOOD for them! That's something to be ADMIRED, you socialist idiot, not attacked.

....Unless, of course, you're such a loser that you'll never do anything except complain that people who are more willing to work and are smarter than you, make more money than you...

BTW, you already get the wealth you deserve- in the form of a wage or salary...

In fact, the Koch brothers have been JOB DELETERS in favor of padding their bank accounts.

Hmmm... if we take this statement at face-value (I'm being generous), this means they've become more efficient... which in turn will result in lower prices to their consumers.

And this is bad because WHY?

Oh, that's right... it's bad because you're such a loser that you'll never do anything, so you just complain that people who are more willing to work and are smarter than you, make more money than you...

Face it, gobsheit. You're a leftist loser.

'Nuff said.

Then they should be hiring MORE people because they are making more profit selling at a cheaper price.

So these richers are NOT job creators AT ALL.

you can't call them job creators then claim eliminating jobs is a good thing, you loon.

Why does a person go into business for themself? What's the point?

Do you think it's because of security? Yes or no?

If a person loses their security by going into business for themself, then what could POSSIBLY be their motive?

Isn't there more RISK?

And if they take higher risks than YOU would by simply showing up to collect a paycheck, would it not be FAIR to make more money, bigger PROFITS, than you?

Is it the purpose of a company to take all the risks, and give away all the rewards for the money invested, by giving it someone who has NO risk of loss at stake?

Again, what is the REASON for starting a business???
