Either that, or my preference is one single import duty.
One everything.
(no exceptions whatsoever)
Energy sources like oil. Food. And all manufactured goods from everywhere.
No exceptions whatsoever. I say that, because we do not want to build up another government bureaucracy. The import duty must be universal, with no exceptions whatsoever.
That said, it should also be offset by a decrease in the income tax.
Those two, would dramatically alter the groundrules for American business, and immediately start a massive repatriation of American businesses right here.
Even foreign companies would be encouraged to build in America.
America has been chasing every company possible, elsewhere. Most to China.
China now exports more than America.
Bring back American businesses now.
Fix the problem? Politicians are the problem!
The headline is kind of like asking “The bathtub is filled with water. Can the drain plug fix the problem if we leave it where it is?”
Its not going to happen.
Well I say it’s either that, or we start planning for America’s eventual collapse.
What we are doing currently, is rapidly sending America down the tubes.
Bring back American jobs now.
Not as long as they can shuffle money around and borrow money.
Spending by the two most recent administrations have made tax cuts a perceived impossibility. Perceived because both parties consider Laffer’s Curve a fairy tale.
I am against whatever the UniParty™ is for .
The only thing politicians can do at this point to help the job markets would be to get government out of the way...
This is anathema to both Parties, so instead they’ll try to be SEEN to be doing SOMETHING the results of which they know damn well they’ll never be held to account for.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
Actually its been happening for decades now.
We’re on a sinking ship and people are drilling more holes.
Two words: Hell, NO!
Fire the incompetent political hacks and eliminate all the job killing rules, regulations, and laws the Donkeys and GOPee Establishment have put into place. How about tarring, feathering these corrupt hacks, and ride them out of town on a rail? Or, employ a tree, a rope, assembly required, and repeat.
Politians are the problem. We need a leader of heroic proportions. Under the guize of civil rights the marxists have destroyed our Republic..
Ronald Reagan
Politicians ARE the problem...
(That was my trick answer)
;-)
Funny how the pic in this article shows a bunch of job hunting hopefuls are out at a “job fair”...
If you knew how much of a farce those events are, and the real numbers of how many people actually find work through those events, there would never be another one held that would draw very many people to those shams...
They are, for lack of a better definition a resume grab...Those firms setting those events up are out there to give the HR folks a legitimate chance to justify their existance...Which in reality is tough...
The whole exercise is a “feel good” effort that actually produces very little in return...
And it is designed to do that, and the expectations by these corporations and other businesses, chamber of commerces, and other community groups already know the return is minimal, at best...
So where does that leave us???
All you have to do to check the weather is open a window...
It really is that easy...
