The tax code does not send business overseas. Neither does regulation. China and India are overregulated and have abstruse tax codes.

It is funny that we need to shrink government to compete with communist China.

Why this was rather obvious. It seems rather obvious that jobs are outsourced so a company can make a profit from low wage workers. Anyone can tell you that. Who is arguing that the reason jobs are outsourced is because of tax forms? Are they to be taken seriously by anyone? Should they be taken seriously enough to write a whole thread about the issue?

Yeah.  I guess you can make out like a bandit if you don't spend $700 billion/yr on guns and bombs and people drop dead before they can start making your version of Medicare and SS take a hit...



I would like to compete with China in certain areas... other areas I'm not as enthusiastic about.

I fail to see from your link where the piece is to which you refer.  Where is it buried in the mag?

The people arguing this are the Republican Party, and each of its candidates for the Presidency.

It from the live-blogging of last night's debate, when each candidate was talking about bringing jobs to America through 9-9-9/20-20/0% tax on manufacturing
