Clark's "Plan For Job Creation"

Clark unveiled a "Plan For Job Creation" yesterday in advance of today's economic debate.

The key components:

• The Homeland and Economic Security Fund - $40 billion over 2 years to beef up homeland security, providing jobs in the process.
• State and Local Tax Rebate Fund - $40 billion over 2 years to the States to encourage lower state taxes and avoid balanced budget required job cuts.
• Tax Incentives for Job Creation - $20 billion over 2 years to encourage new hiring through a job creation tax credit, tax credits for small and medium sized business investment, tax incentives to keep jobs in the US and removing tax incentives that encourage them to leave.
