A new proposal from the House Republican leadership would bring jobs to America by expanding the rights of  Job Creators while also helping young married couples.

"We are all about individual rights," said US Rep. Eric Cantor, "and for too long the federal government has trampled on ancient rights held to be inalienable and eternal, predating the Founding Fathers even."

"It's all about freedom, and the rights that the federal government has taken away from Job Creators," Governor Rick Perry, a proponent, said of the legislation.  "This helps put an end to 'class warfare' practiced for decades by liberals, Democrats and wimpy Republicans."

The program is also designed to help young couples get a start on their marriage by easing the tension and burden of the very early stages of matrimony.

While the bill does not make reference to it, the new legislation is based broadly on the "droits du seigneur" rights of noblemen in Europe.  It is also known as "jus primae noctus" or simply
"the master's obligation."

"That just sounded foreign and maybe even French," said Perry, who successfully implemented a pilot of the program in Texas. "We've taken the basic principle and call it the 'Job Creator Freedom Program."

A spokesman for the White House said it will study the measure, does not practice class warfare and will consider any job stimulus program of merit.
