This is sort of a re-do of Obama's (businessmen) "don't do it alone". And they don't: usually they go through banks etc for loans: sometimes - a lot of times - through government loans, they have to have people to help get them up and running etc. Hillary's point is that businesses don't create jobs - out of thin air -if that were so, there'd be a lot more jobs available every day: if the corps and the wealthy created jobs there'd be zero unemployment in this country and the great depression wouldn't have happened. She's not making an anti business stament, but more telling a great truth; that without demand and spending power business is really nowhere and I think that is very true. Try and see through partisanship to what's really going on here. Mind you - I'm not a Hillary fan by any stretch of the imagination, but reality is just that. A business cannot be created unless it has a place to go and a reason to hire people.
yes, hillary may have been trying to re-visit the 'you didn't build that (by yourself)' discussion
but she failed in her efforts
she failed when she presented that businesses do not create jobs
identify a demand and supply it. that is what businesses do. and businesses create jobs in the process. exactly the opposite of what hillary tried to explain to us
and in the process she revealed that her feet are made of clay
