Carls Jr., Hardees CEO on Creating Jobs and Government Regulations
by Heritage Videos
Andrew Puzder knows a thing or two about creating jobs. As CEO of CKE Restaurants, the parent company of many famous brands including Carls Jr. and Hardees, Puzder has seen firsthand how government policies can help or hurt job creation. In his new book, Job Creation: How It Really Works and Why Government Doesnt Understand It, Puzder and co-author Dave Newton share what they have learned.
Puzder spoke at Heritage this week and sat down with Heritage to talk about his experience in the business world.
In the interview, he discussed the burden government places on job creators. Government just doesnt understand how much uncertainty it creates in the market when it attempts to regulate what the private sector does, he said, And it really doesnt understand what the private sector does.
Yep, restaurant chains have proven to be such bastions of ethics, good business and hygiene practices in the past that it makes one wonder why the poor wittle guys are always being pick on by the big bad Gmen.
