(Editor’s note: The Business Journal this week is taking the unprecedented liberty of replacing the editorial with Tom Fehsenfeld’s important comment, in which we find full agreement.)
My family and I are “job providers” (what used to be called “employers”) for over 200 people here in Michigan, and I have been wondering what it would take to get people like me hiring again. I have to admit that I am not overly burdened by regulations or filled with fear about “Obamacare,” so those cannot be the reasons my company is not hiring at a faster clip. The simple truth is, we hire and employ as many people as it takes to get the work done — no more, no less. |
