WASHINGTON — Even if they were enacted soon, President Barack Obama’s proposed tax breaks for businesses would hardly be a quick fix to rejuvenate hiring or the economy, analysts say. And what little benefit they might provide wouldn’t likely emerge until next year at the earliest. Until businesses feel more confident about their own sales and the durability of the recovery,they won’t be inclined to expand operations or add to their pay- rolls, economists note. Big companies can already bor- row at low rates, and they generally aren’t doing so. “If you are a company and you are unsure whether you should go ahead and make a big investment, the tax benefit isn’t going to make you more likely to spend in the next six months,”said James O’Sullivan, global chief economist at MF Global.

Fair board members told the Salt Lake Tribune that they took the action Friday because the ads were too suggestive and reached the wrong “demographics.’’ But Jared Hess noted the board didn’t pull the radio ads, which contain the audio from the television spots. “They’re identical, but you can’t see the actor. You do the math,’’said the film- maker noted for the quirky humor of his 2004 “Nap- oleon Dynamite.’’ “It’s very strange.The spots celebrate the iconic things you can only find at the state fair. I can’t help but think that the main actor being African- American is the reason they pulled them, which is very disturbing,’’he added. Board Chairman Lorin Moench said the spots didn’t accurately portray the state fair to the people the board was trying to attract. Board members say they found the sexual tone of the two “The Utah State Fair: Uncomm- only Good’’ offensive. “We felt the ads didn’t meet the demographics that we felt need to happen,’’ he told the Tribune. “We are trying to get families to come to the fair and to represent the agriculture interests of the state.’’ He insisted his “demo- graphics’’ comment in no way referred to the star of the ads being a sultry black singer reminiscent of Barry White. “No. Absolutely not,’’ Moench said. “We want all kinds of people to come to the fair.’’ In one of the ads, the actor sings about the glories of a hog: “When I see your shoulders — I know that you might make a great stew.And when I see your hamhocks — yeah,I love your ham,baby — I know I’m falling in love with you. And your rib meat, so beautifully sweet.’’ Nation & World 6 Sunday, September 12, 2010 OBITUARIES/WEST Times-News, Twin Falls, Idaho
