It isn't. What kind of jobs matters - McJobs don't generate much tax revenue.

Also level of taxation also matters, you could have 0% unemployment but if your tax rates are too low you still can run deficit.

Yes, we need tax reform, and _INTEGRAL_ part of tax reform will be INCREASING TAXES, especially on the rich that are currently taxed at historically lowest rates. We, as a society, simply cannot afford such low tax rate.
