Preview Political Parties on Jobs Compare these two texts from the Republican and Democrat Parties about Jobs. How do Republicans plan to increase jobs in the US? How do Democrats plan to increase jobs in the US? “The best jobs program is economic growth. We do not offer yet another made-in-Washington package of subsidies and spending to create temporary or artificial jobs. ...

Our opponents believe we should go back to the top-down economic policies of the last decade. …They argue that if we help corporations and wealthy investors maximize their profits by whatever means necessary, whether through layoffs or outsourcing, it will automatically translate into jobs and prosperity that benefits us all. … But we've tried their policies—and we've all suffered when they failed.” -2012 Democrat Party Platform
