Gary! I *knew* you would be able to respond to that. In fact, I almost called you out to respond.
Anyhow -> I think in this case your assessment is spot-on. Good show!

Not sure the link makes your point.
Anyhow. . . .very few of the conservatives on this board, and certainly none campaigning for President (except perhaps Paul), can really be considered "libertarian". My libertarian views are typically labeled pinko communist.
Keep your eye on Waukesha, Wisconsin......Their biggest employer just moved out.

> General Electric is planning to move its 115-year-old X-ray division from Waukesha, Wis., to Beijing. In addition to moving the headquarters, the company will invest $2 billion in China and train more than 65 engineers and create six research centers. This is the same GE that made $5.1 billion in the United States last year. but paid no taxes-the same company that employs more people overseas than it does in the United States.

> So let me get this straight. President Obama appointed GE CEO Chairman Jeff Immelt to head his commission on job creation (job czar). Immelt is supposed to help create jobs. I guess the President forgot to tell him in which country he was supposed to be creating those jobs.

> If this doesn't show you the total lack of leadership of this President, I don't know what does. Soon, you all will understand that Obama has an agenda, this socialist agenda is to remove the last super power from the world. He is getting very close
Soooooo, Fore Skins....... We all (working middle class) should all work for peanuts(sweat labor), while you sit in your office counting the big money??.................. I don't think so......:grin::lol:Being it the medical device field, I know where they are coming from. The contract manufacturers in WI and MN are, yet again, pricing themselves out of the market. I'm getting bids from the southern US (right to work states) that are 1/3 of what the "rust belt" is coming in at... But then again... WI loves unions...
Its got nothing to do with the government taking money to create jobs. Its about changing the tax structure, taking the heavy burden off the middle class (those "losers" as you put it who do most of the living, dying and spending in this country) and shifting it to the wealthier folks who can more afford it. Unless your an anarchist you understand that the government is going to need at least a certain amount of money if for nothing else defense. The synopsis of the article is that its a bad idea (if you want economic recovery) for the tax burden to be placed on those who can least afford it. If some of that burden is passed up the economic scale it will leave those in the middle class with more to spend thus stimulating the economy.
And I find it hilarious that any time an article is posted that presents the clear case that you, MM and a few others on here beliefs and ideas about the economy are total bull**** your answer is "he's an idiot"...... maybe the guy writing the article is NOT the idiot?

You forget the rest there, slow-boat........LOL "I don't think so!!":smt043I think lancey-boy finally gets it...

My basic point is that I believe anybody can achieve anything in the USA... There is no "man" out to get you or holding you back.... You are never too old...
The only thing that gets in anyone's way is their poor attitude.
Some famous guy once said "The harder you work, the luckier you get."
Four Suns; I believe that you are incorrect. Good attitude is a necessary, not a sufficient condition.
While hard work gets you good luck; you STILL need good luck.
But yes. . ."Fortune favors the well prepared".
I do believe that addage.
So what exactly stimulates job - "work" creation and where?!
MM, the worst part is, half of the American people don't seem to get that concept :smt021Small business is the answer not the entrenched big business. Small business has generated over 64% of our new jobs in this country in the last 15 years.
So why are they not "creating" these jobs? Regulation and uncetainty. Regulations cost small business 36% more than big business, small business does not have the tools to deal with them. The more I look at what ails our economy, the bigger my favorite whipping post, crony capitalism, appears to be. Instead of out competing others, big business is cozy with politicians and conspires to make it hard for competitors to compete. Add to that the agenda of the radical enviromental movement, looming higher taxes, and energy costs, then who wants to bite off any more than they have on their plate. MM
MM, the worst part is, half of the American people don't seem to get that concept :smt021
If things don't change, we might just see how "evil" those "sob's" can be!Worse yet, the current political climate seems to have convinced that same half that people who created the jobs are evil SOB's.
