Matt Blunt Pays Out Cash to His Capitalist Friends

to train and retain employees:

Gov. Matt Blunt was signing legislation Tuesday creating new incentives for companies to add workers, which he claimed would bring more and better job opportunities to Missourians.

The measure, dubbed the "Quality Jobs Act," allows some employers to keep a share of their new employees' withholding taxes, rather than turning them over to the state, so long as they provide health insurance and pay a certain wage.

The bill provides the incentives for job creation at small businesses and technology companies, and for large projects.
