When I mentioned a tax break, I meant that it would only be under the condition that the company have their factory here, and not overseas.
I suppose if we completely eliminate the minimum wage, unemployment benefits, allow unlimited H1B's, eliminate the FDA and EPA, eliminate welfare benefits and allow people to sell their children into slavery we can be competitive with China and India. In short I would trust a meth addicted degenerate gambler at Hawthorne to pay me back the 100 bucks he is asking for than corporate America to do what is right for the future of the country with any bribe money given them.

Awesome!!! I'm glad W2NYC is on the case and telling it like it is while the associated press is totally dropping the ball

The sky is not falling Geeker, it already fell and crushed the middle class. Can I ask if you are retired/semi retired and collecting a pension? Most folks in that age group see no problems at all cause they are still getting their pensions... For now that is. As far as "It's all about economics", the economics books have yet to be written on the long range detrimental effects of shipping buying power to the 3rd world.

That is interesting. It shows that we have been bamboozled when they keep telling us that they need to bring in these workers because there is a shortage of skilled workers here. In reality, there doesn't appear to be much of a shortage. They just want cheaper labor.

Dr. Matloff has been pounding the table on this topic for 20 years. Of course main stream media has ignored him. Could it be because media companies also enjoy using the cheap slave labor.

it's always about the money. the parties can talk the talk all they want about reform, but their puppet masters don't want reform. they like things just the way they are.

And now the puppet masters don't even have to be US-based in order to continue their influence peddling.
