The one resounding message from private business; help us big government Republicans!! Guess what, the private sector is killing jobs. We kind of knew that, but maybe conservatives will learn from the following:
The forum at Modine Manufacturing Co., 1500 DeKoven Ave., was one of several Walker and his administrators have held around the state. Tuesday they met with 18 area business owners and representatives.
"Access to capital is our No. 1 issue," said Delta Hawk Engines President and CEO Dennis Webb.
Randy Caskey of Wills RV Center, 10500 Durand Ave., said he would like to expand and double his staff. "It's frustrating," he said, "because the banks don't seem to be cooperating."
Spectrum Group President and CEO Russell Gnant, "Small businesses are funding large businesses by waiting a long time to be paid," he said. "Capital has to flow." Instead, large corporations are extending payment times to suppliers to fatten their own bottom lines, he said. Gnant continued, "You could raise my taxes by 20 percent, and I would rather have that than to have my customers go from 30 to 60 days" in payment times.
Fancy that, business is killing business...and job creation. But that's not important. What is important to business: creating desperate human capital. The jobless need to know their master.
This group of sad whining business owners, who don’t seem to like the cruel invisible hand of the free market, decided to beat up on the unemployed:
Journal Times:Several business people said the unemployment compensation system is stacked against them when they must discharge an employee - and saps incentives for people to work. In an unemployment dispute, "there is a perceived pro-employee bias," said Jim Ryan of Milwaukee-based Robertson Ryan & Associates. In hearings before administrative law judges, Ryan said, "The default position is the employee has nothing to prove. I have heard that (from clients) for years."
So sad? Employees having to defend themselves against business trial lawyers, challenging them in court, when business knows the now unemployed don’t have the money to fight back. Still, it's so unfair to business.
David Eggleston, president of Union Grove-based All Modes, is concerned about “the children.”
"Well, what message are we sending (young people), when people are handing out unemployment like candy?" Eggleston added.And when a persons unemployment runs out:
Poclain Hydraulics Vice President of Finance and Human Resources Tom Shinners told of asking applicants what brought them to Poclain, and hearing, "Well, my unemployment ran out.""You're trying to help people to help themselves, and it's often a lost cause," Shinners added.
Boy, the unemployed are such jerks.
