job creators
Hirers of workers
Job creators is a political term for wealthy individuals and business owners, framed to suggest that tax cuts and deregulation benefit everyone by stimulating employment.
The phrase gained currency in American conservative discourse around 2010: We need policies that help job creators, not punish success.
Critics view it as a euphemism that flatters the rich while obscuring economic complexity.
