If you are running a business that has overseas facilities, you would be wise to keep the money over there at a lower tax rate. We need to have inducements for our own businesses to bring their money back and invest locally, not a penalty for such action. Behavior Mod 101.

Didn't we do that under GWB and it didn't (or hardly) work? ------------------ We need a change in Demand for anyone to HIRE today. USA Consumers are just about flat line in demand with respect to PRODUCTS and services for the past 18 months. We don't feel comfortable with how things are going so we postpone purchases of cars, furniture, homes, appliances. That compared to pre 2008 levels where we were taking out seconds on homes to get new appliances or improvements within. It was drummed into our heads that we needed to SAVE $$ and the only way to do that is stop spending as fast. Well there goes the older mindset as to what we need in a workforce here in the USA. Plants closed here, automotive parts as a for instance. Auto demand was negative for over a year. No need to have two shifts to make parts for SUVs. Now that demand is increasing and people want these vehicles again it is more cost effective to the mfg to find a different source for needed parts. Unfortunate for all of us that the parts coming in are crummy and expected to fail faster. One of the biggest parts of a car sale is the "quality" insurance associated with the asset. Bumper to Bumper guarantees for X years or Y miles. -- Stephen Russell Unified Health Services 60 Germantown Court Suite 220 Cordova, TN 38018 Telephone: 888.510.2667 901.246-0159 cell [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
