"Okay people argue if you will but you need to take a look at this list of jobs/companies that have left America."

The question to ask is WHY they had to go outside of the US to get the job done cost effectively.

The reason is that in the US companies are over regulated, and over taxed -- as a result of many years of Dem rule.

THAT is what needs to be changed, and the way to do that is to get rid of more and more Dems in Congress and other elected and appointed offices, including the judiciary.

Emphasis added on the judiciary on another subject matter, I'm a little tired of the liberal courts handing out millions of dollars to lazy Americans who want to sue corporations for a living. It either drives down the wage earnings of the employees or transfers the costs to the consumers all just to benefit one person who didn't want to work for a living. Lazy spoiled Americans are the ones destroying America, not the so called "greedy" businessmen. The only way to stop the liberal courts is to make extreme conservative courts which the Senate Democrats have proved they won't let happen.

The answer? 60 Republican senators.

I take a bit more cynical view than that. They did it because they could. Both technology and law made it an irresistible business strategy and I would too if it meant meeting my fiduciary duties to maximize the profits of shareholders and business owners. Business is not in business to make jobs, it isn't even to make a product or render a service, business is not social service. Business is in business to make money. Business is amoral, the only restrictions they must hold legal restrictions. If I can legally have a widget manufactured for 50 cents in Mexico and it costs 50 dollars to produce in the United States due to unions, regulations or any other reason then I would be failing my ethical duty to the business I managed to pay the 50 bucks. It boggles my mind that that core conservative value is even questioned on this forum.
