Is it by taxing companies that ship jobs overseas? Is it by lowering taxes and attracting investments and capital back here? Do we need to re-negotiate trade agreements to be more competitive? Is it more investment in Education and Technology? More taxpayer subsidies for certain industries? Could it simply be global market forces at work forcing our evolution? Do you have another solution not listed? Then join the discussion and vote now, leave a comment, share with all your friends, and RAVE!!!!

Lower Taxes and bring the jobs back!!!
+9Lower taxes, make it easier for businesses, etc. Make America a business friendly nation again and companies will have no reason to run away.
Sorry I used to be nice, that wasn't working out very well, so now that's how I roll.
Here' why...
1. When they steal elections from Ron Paul and candidates who are really for the people with the Diebold voting machines? They are now our adversary because they committed a high crime by carrying out voter fraud. Why show any common decency to cheaters?
2. Why be nice when we win by the rules and the call in the thug police to arrest people and beat up delegates? They expect us to be graceful when we lose, but think when they lose they roll out the thugs to beat us into submission when the rule do not work in their favor.
3. Why be nice to a group of people who are silent on the TSA groping our crotches?
4. Why act civilized, when they are sending us into wars against nations not a threat or attacked us. What is so civilized about wars of aggression?
5. They do not deserve our respect when congress acts like a potted plant while the President breaks the law of the land declaring the UN has to powers to make war when it is our children that might go fight them.
6. Why should we be calm when they plan on taxing us into ob...

6. Why should we be calm when they plan on taxing us into oblivion with Obamacare and Carbon taxes?
7. Why show the establishment any respect when they sold out to the money junkies and special interest that want to steal our freedoms and attack our economic liberty.
8. Why show them any reverence as public servants and political party officials when they do not show any respect to our Constitution and our Bill of Rights?
9. Why act civilized to appease a group of people that want to oppress us?
10. Why concede to their anointed candidate Mitt Romney who is no different from Obama? They both wined and dined with George Soros. They both are for gun control; they are both for socialized Healthcare. They are both for open borders, the NAU, the UN and cap and trade.
11. Why cooperate with hacks who work for Wall Street to allow another false choice on the November ballot?
12. Why should we show any common decency to a group of people who are for the Patriot act, the NDAA, TSA on the highways and highway checkpoints?
Have you read Atlas Shrugged or any of Ayn Rand's non-fiction work?
Low-cost labor is an added bonus. The reason offshore operations keep on growing is because the side effect of artificially pumping up the profits of foreign subsidiaries (to avoid US taxation) leaves a big pile of cash ready for reinvestment in those countries.
How do I know this? I sat in a corporate boardroom where decisions were made. I saw the flight of capital. Then I went to Asia to help expand corporate operations.
The way the scam works is that corporations make it LOOK like they are chasing cheap labor. The ugly truth is that cheap labor has a lot of hidden costs. Through the magic of accounting, corporations make operations in low-tax countries look more profitable than they really are (using cheap labor as the explanation). Where does that money come from? It comes from under-reporting profits in high-tax countries. The only real problem is that the corporation ends up with lots of cash in foreign bank accounts. They can't easily repatriate that money, so they reinvest it in the country where it was "earned".

Lowering the taxes and even lowering the wages, while 'quantitative easing' continues progressively, will still not achieve the desired results.
What could possibly work is if we all simply stopped 'consuming' products, but again, if we were going to do that, it should have been done BEFORE the vast majority of our industries and products were made overseas. People are too material these days to make a stand and suffer without their foreign-made toys to effect the changes they want.
It. Is. Too. Late.
Memo to Progressives:
GIVE UP. Give up, all of you, you looting planners and Washington insiders and all of your cannibalistic philosophy and policies. GIVE UP AND GET OUT OF THE WAY. Leave men free to exist.
