What is it going to take for you to see that has not worked for many years. Bush lowered taxes and we hemmoraged jobs for nearly a decade. We have 2 choices here. Lower our standard of living to be that of a third world country or Penalize companies with taxes that ship jobs overseas and make the penalty substansial enough that the economics of shipping jobs out of the country doesn't work. Since those that make the rules are owned by the corporate America this has no chance in hell of ever happening. We have a better chance of another American Revolution than our elected officials standing up to corporations.
