Give me one good reason why the GOP is blocking the "Bring the Jobs Home Act"

[Terryj]

Allot you just don't get it, Companies are in business to make a Profit there not in business to hire people, now if a business is successful they will grow and hire employees, therefore creating jobs. With the U.S. corporate tax rate being the second highest in the world, why wouldn't I, as a businessman, take my company to another country with a lower tax rate and manufacture my good there. I can make the same product, with lower wages and lower taxes, it only good business sense.

The way to bring these companies back is to give them an incentive to come back, not to punish them if they leave.

It's more the cheap labor but the taxes and regulations play a big part too. Why would you build a part for ten bucks in the US and only have the US as your customer who can afford it when you can build the same thing for one buck in maylasia and most of the world then becomes your customer?

Keep howling away because that is what they wanted the entire time and the useful idiots never disappoint.

Rockin the Casbah.

In context referring to a cd member (he quoted him to respond) as "Keep howling away... useful idiots". Personal attack, rude.

If you insist on taking it out here...

Yes, renovating. It is possible to infract someone following the TOS. By mistake. Your case wasn't a mistake. We
don't allow calling your opponents morons, regardless of your sentence structure.

And by questions I meant questions about procedures, not questioning a particular procedure.

Since nobody seems to be interested in asking, only complaining, this thread is closed.

The Bring Jobs Home Act also would have given a tax incentives to companies that bring jobs back to the United States. The measure failed to advance on a 56-42 vote, with 60 votes needed to end debate on the bill.

GOP senators block Dem

Because it disallows deductions for outsourcing which are a valid business expense. Read the text of the bill.
