Creigh Deeds on Jobs

Tax break for every job created

With the current economy, both Deeds & McDonnell are focusing on jobs in Virginia. "Part of my plan is to give a tax break for every job created," says Deeds.

"I've set a goal of Virginia being the best place in America for small business," says McDonnell. "Get rid of some of the bureaucracy, the tax and the regulatory policies. 48-hour turn around time, one stop permitting to get entrepreneurs. I want to see the next Bill Gates come out of Virginia,".
