Sure there are things to argue about, but we for too long have been systematically destroying the very economy on which all this is built.
Stop it.
Bring jobs back to America.
Thank you.
I am also in favor of allowing the private sector to make business decisions
And the 254369 different taxes you have to pay to start up a business. Because you know, the have nots want what you have.the It is time for the GOP and the Dems to start working for Americans.
Lols! The Democrats are Communists who want to Redistribute America's wealth to the rest of the World and Communist China in particular.
As for the Republicans, they are either blinded by the Green in the money they receive from foreign lobbyist or are more concerned with being liked by the democrats to care.
Screw You American, I got mine and I am going to keep off shoring your job and inflating your money until its worthless.
Eliminate the tax imposed on manufacturers. Its for all intensive purposes, a VAT tax. Ditch the ridiculous regulations. Bury industry under cheap fuel sources till they don’t know what to do with it all.
I’d settle for them getting out of the way so they don’t continue driving jobs away. If I go back into business and hire a full staff (I have no employees now although it used to be over 50, a number I would never exceed with ObamaCare hanging over employers), and I lose money, I lose all the money that is lost. If I make money, I keep just under 50% of what I make, and that’s before any tax increases from Obama’s war on productive Americans. Those are not the best odds from the perspective of a small businessman, especially with the uncertainty over what other obstacles might come out of the federal government.
In reality, I’m probably out of that game permanently, but the far left’s disincentives are discouraging others who would like to create or expand a business. It’s sad what the politics of envy have done to a once great country.
Please tell us how this will work. How will business be competitive with foreign companies without mercantilism?
Most of those unemployed don’t want to work, let alone a factory, and most of the new entitled graduates are too good to work in manufacturing.
Anyone who has seen your rants knows what you really mean about "bringing jobs back to America" is to impose protectionism, high tariff's, etc. Your ideas are no different than Senator Bernie Sanders (Socialist-Vermont) or radical leftwing union leaders.
Want more jobs here in the states? Promote policies that help us compete: lower corporate taxes, less regulations, reduce or eliminate minimum wages, etc, etc. Competition is good, it benefits the country as a whole, leads to more jobs, promotes innovation, etc.
It is time for the GOP and the Dems to start working for Americans.
You're being naive. The left does not support competition, lower regulations, lower taxes, etc. The left supports "bringing jobs back to America" by eliminating competition via protectionist policies, tariffs, etc. From what I have read of your posts, you are squarely in the progressive left camp on this issue.
You are not alone.
If the GOP were to take a few steps in the Ross Perot direction on trade policy it would suddenly create a lot of electoral headaches for the Democrats.
We can debate the macroeconomic pros and cons, but it would be a political winner.
Get the government and environmentalists out of the way for ten years. Use our natural competitive advantages. Actually welcome business in America. We can’t compete on the low cost of labor. That’s a loser. We need much better and stronger management.
