I don't think you understand what this means.

And once and for all, please explain how the poor provide jobs?

Billary said corporations certainly don't provide jobs.

The poor definitely create jobs. Three quick examples:

Government agencies that exist to provide goods and services (e.g., welfare, public defenders, health clinics, etc.) to the poor would not exist without the poor.

The poor have a low propensity to save and fuel production of consumer products such as televisions, cellphones, fast food, etc.

Someone has to foot the bill for the benefits provided to the poor. People with a good work ethic and pride will seek jobs to stay off of as many government programs as possible.

The same way the wealthy do....they buy shite. Our economy is consumer based. Wealthy people and entrepenuers do not "create" jobs (with the notable exception of their own)....customers create jobs. Customer demand for goods and services create jobs. Business owners are merely middle men who facilitate that trade. Of course this means that the rugged, self reliant, individual "job creator" may well be the first 3 but he most certainly is not the last....and that means that he really ain't that special and there is nothing in the world more butt hurt (even an Ole Miss fan) than a rugged, self reliant producer who hears someone suggest that he ain't the prettiest girl at the dance.....

Consumers spend money. Isn't that core to capitalism?
