Walker, GOP Took Eyes Off the Ball on Job Creation

Wisconsin lost nearly 24,000 jobs over the past 12 months - the only state
in the union with "statistically significant" job losses over that period,
according to a new federal government report. For a governor who promised
thousands of new jobs would be created on his watch and who now faces an
unprecedented electoral challenge, that had to be troubling news. It's
certainly troubling for job seekers across the state.
.
Certainly, Gov. Scott Walker is responsible for politicizing job creation
in Wisconsin - and then taking his eye off the ball as his fellow
Republicans embarked on fulfilling a conservative wish list ranging from
concealed carry to the castle doctrine to voter ID. But is Walker
responsible for the state's dreary job numbers? And is any politician
really capable of creating significant job growth?
,
Walker made a promise over which he had little control - essentially he
was betting on the come - by pledging that Wisconsin would create 250,000
new private-sector jobs during his first term. That may have been a
political mistake.

Businesses make decisions about hiring based on whether that additional
worker will help them sell more goods or services and improve their bottom
lines. The actions of state government in such matters as tax policy and
business regulation are important at the margins in those decisions - but
only at the margins.
.
Businesses have to have demand for what they do before they hire. And for
whatever reason, Wisconsin companies are doing less hiring over the past
few months than their peers in other states. Even the much-maligned
Illinois has performed better. There is no obvious answer to this riddle.
.
snip
.
Walker seems to believe the magical thinking that Wisconsin can recruit
businesses from other states. This approach has seldom worked for the
Badger State. It is far better to create incentives and capital pools for
start-up businesses. But the centerpiece of that effort - a bill to
jump-start venture capital - flopped because Walker couldn't persuade his
own party to abandon a risky version of the bill in the Assembly last
year.
