To you, I guess it has nothing to do with the fact that we don't have the luxury of just putting people back to work now in well paying jobs. In 1930, coporations weren't manufacturing in China. Companies have other options than hiring Americans. Is this Obamas fault? You can give stimulus and job packages, none guarantee it will put Americans back to work now. We haven't replaced well paying jobs with more well paying jobs, we've replaced well paying jobs with cheaper service industry jobs. As a result, spending is way down and consumer confidence inherently is way down. Companies don't grow when people aren't buying. to compare a recovery in 2010 vs one in 1930 given the differences in global economies is beyond laughable.

ZWICK 4 PREZ;1783728 wrote:The financial industry collapsing and ruining themselves and the everyday joe caused, and has slowed, the recovery. We held the banks above water, and not the populous. Therefore, they recovered well, and we never did. Most people still never have. Hence why spending is down. Hence why recovery is so slow. It has nothing to do with Obamacare or taxes.

You made the claim, he calls you out on the validity and then you backtrack by telling him to prove you wrong. Just admit you have nothing to back your claim and move on.

Companies that are large enough to move overseas are the ones who are able to take advantage of the tax code and pay an effective rate lower than most people. If anything, it's the small business who is taxed to much, and he cant move to china. Companies are moving overseas for cheap labor and practically no restrictions. Unless you want to be paid nothing, and have no workplace safety, and allow companies to do whatever they want environmentally, you aren't keeping them here.

sleeper;1783761 wrote:They hold cash overseas because they can pay a much lower rate by never repatriating dollars. They aren't moving jobs overseas because of that but they are moving cash. Pretty substantial difference.

Jobs have left this country because labor is too expensive here. It's not like we lost "good paying manufacturing jobs" because in reality manufacturing in today's age doesn't command a high wage. You can thank unions for that who don't live in reality and still expected $20/hr to run a conveyor belt. It's not the company's who want to do this; instead they have to do this to remain competitive in a global marketplace.

I do however agree with your analysis regarding the impact of high taxes and regulations to small business, who employ far more than corporations do. You can thank Obama for his ACA which added to their already tight burden, his push for $15/hr minimum wage, and his complete demonetization of wealthy people who run these small businesses that create jobs for the people of this country.
