we need less government booth. more freedom.
so like i said im with closing loopholes, but that in itself will be disasterous enough on employers creating jobs.
and im sure diode or one of you self proclaimed economists will come in and state how making it easy on corporations and business owners doesnt actually help create jobs but just shut up.
i'm in the rust belt. i've watched the jobs leave. ive spent the years searching for a job with nothing but subway and mcdonalds there to give you something when 40 years ago i couldve got into timken steel, republic steel, etc. good paying jobs for the uneducated.
thats disappeared because its impossible for a corporation to make money so they have to move over seas.

1, nobody is closing down corporations. if a corporation wants to stash 60 billion dollars/year of tax money, (of the 300+ that it makes/year) overseas when all of that money came from patrons of the country that enabled it to make that much in the first place, then it doesn't deserve to be an american corporation. do not confuse "its impossible for a corporation to make money so they have to move over seas" with "ceo's would rather make $3,000/hr by outsourcing as opposed to $1,000/hr by paying fair wages"
2, solar jobs are not union nor are they city/government jobs. solar is the biggest growing industry and it's not even a little tough to get a job in that market.
3, i agree that we need less government, but just because there's a bunch of bad government policies does not mean we shouldn't add good government policies and try getting rid of the bullshit. its the type of governing that matters.
4, those steel jobs aren't there because of disastrous trade agreements. not because those companies were being taxed too high or couldn't make enough profit.
