What Reid would have them believe:

LAS VEGAS—Today, Sen. Harry Reid discussed the importance of the new Jobs Bill he introduced, highlighting how this crucial legislation will put Nevadans back to work through tax cuts to promote hiring, tax incentives to avoid layoffs, and investments in infrastructure.

The event was held at Southern Nevada Paving, a small business that paves roads and highways. This firm benefitted from the Recovery Act’s infrastructure investments and is looking forward to taking advantage of the transportation funding allocations in the Jobs Bill. Dozens of the company’s employees were in attendance to receive a much anticipated update from Sen. Reid.

Coming a day after the Recovery Act’s one year anniversary, Sen. Reid used the event to address the progress achieved by ARRA pulling the economy back from the brink while laying out the pathway forward to create good paying Nevada jobs through this new legislation.

Reid said: “A year ago, the stimulus became law, setting the recovery in motion. We stopped the bleeding. Now it’s time to nurse our economy back to health. We are starting with a specific plan to create jobs – and to create the right conditions for the private sector to hire more workers.

“In fact, the very first bill we’ll vote on next week is a jobs plan that will cut businesses’ taxes as an incentive to hire unemployed workers. It’s a jobs bill that’s as good for the employers doing the hiring as it is for the employees getting hired.”

They certainly believe him, you can tell. Even hard-core Union employees can discern when there's a politico causing a need for hip waders.

Oh, and we all want Obamacare, too. Each and every one of us.
