Re: Yep! This is the Republican "job creators".

It is scary to see some folks thinking that trying to avoid paying their taxes is something done by people from only one party.   With a quick Goodle search you can come up with a lenghty list of Repubs and Dems that have done all they could to avoid paying their taxes.  This is like believing that only people from one party cheat on their wives.

Please explain please, the Republican defense of these, "JOB CREATORS", then? And don't give me that malarkey, about free enterprise. That's all we have in this country, free markets, to screw the American people.

Re: Yep! This is the Republican "job creators".

GTO, ever notice how governors and mayors from both parties will offer big corps all kinds of special deals including large tax cuts to try and get them to relocate in their city or state?

 

Iowa's last governor, a Dem was very happy and willing to give Microsoft special deals to try to help convince them to build a $600 million data center in Iowa.  The Iowa House vote was 99 - 1 in favor of the incentive deal which would give Microsoft a six-year exemption of state sales and use taxes on purchases of computers, equipment and electricity for “a Web portal business with an investment of at least $200 million in Iowa.

 

Sen.  Dearden, one of only two Senators opposed to the deal said this, "This is a company that made over $14 billion in profit last year and we’re offering them welfare.   When are we going to stop the corporate welfare train?”

Re: Yep! This is the Republican "job creators".

Well sir, I think the corporate gravy train is about to go up in flames. What has seemed to be the club over out heads is, if you tax us will move over seas. Well, to that I would say, there's the door, don't let it hit you in the azs on the way out. The factories they left behind would be up and running, the minute they walked out the door. The workers are all still here, they know how to make it run, all that's needed then is a decent, sensible, thinking CEO to run the paper. I truly think it's that easy.

If it is that easy GTO then you should be able to do quite well if you can find your CEO's as there are many manufacturing plants sitting empty and idle.

That is why Vise-Grips are now made in China, and the buildings in DeWitt, Nebraska sit idle.

Ditto the Monroe Shock absorber plant in Cozad, Nebraska, who has somewhere between 5 and 15 workers, making on particular specialty shock absorber, because they don't have the tooling overseas to build them yet.  This in a factory that had over 200 workers at one time.
