Is the cost of business the only asset America has? Innovation? Upward mobility for lower class? :sas1:You make it sound like a prostitute and a pimp. That she’s nothing without him.

Why doesn’t Amazon or Google move to one of those low tax, low cost states like Mississippi or Tennessee?

It’s almost like corporations stay in high tax states like New York, Cali, or Washington cause a competent workforce requires a higher standard of living and increasing longevity of assets like quality schools and healthcare.


If you buy into the idea that America only stays ahead on the exploitation of workers, you see why a resource rich place like Africa stays at the bottom.

Meanwhile the cost of doing business has shipped other industries overseas entirely...

My question: is increasing operating cost a net gain a for the nation? Especially for the low skilled who aren’t at Apple/google and whoever else you referenced.

You realize your caping for exploitation of workers? And yeah those countries are fighting for higher wages and conditions in garment factories like your American ancestors did.

yes.
Would you say having a national highway system for easier transport of good increases the buying power of the consumer of all brackets?

If Dominoes or Uber is having to reimburse for potholes or can’t reach certain areas because of lack of safe roads or lights hampering expanding their business?

The question you should be asking is what national priorities actually increase the attraction of doing business in America? Why race to the bottom instead of making it stupid to not work in America?

An increasingly sick workforce dying of cancer cause screenings cost too much?


Increase in taxes won’t fix all ills but that means selecting representation that isn’t the like of Matt Gaetz or Cruz.

I think you want things to be one way, but...
Currently 70% of businesses outsource... and the primary reason is cost reduction.
I think its reasonable to believe increasing cost further will incentivize this furthe ... and my question is will it be a net gain?


I’m not even saying its bad policy, I’m asking will the result actually be a net gain.

Then let them outsource. I’m not telling them how to run their business.

Im saying. Know your value. If they want to do business in/with America then these are things we will give you that India or Africa can’t.

Ford isn’t going to selling a major amount of electric cars in a third world country or Mexico with dirt roads.So they can help pay for the upgraded electric grid and we will buy more cars.


If Philip Morris is okay hiding research about the dangers of smoking and now trying to shift teens to vaping, they can pay for healthcare cancer screening or stop selling this crap.



China isn’t beating us by fighting in old 20th century ways. They are out here building whole military islands. Not trying to take over Cuba. They creating new trade relations.

It’ll become popular again after the market crashes again:manny:
This is the flow of things.



everything is good: “we can afford [insert progressive venture]” “we can fund anything” etc.

we crash: “it’s time to make tough cuts” “govt is shutting down until an agreement can be reached” etc.

why would someone blame government spending on the market crashing?

No, you are saying the amerikkkan government should forcibly impose an arbitrarily determined labor value on employers higher than other parts of the world... and whatever happens, happens.

What’s being said is, We print our way out of crashes and the “fiscal responsibility” narrative gains traction again.

Have you truly forgot the debt ceiling shut downs we go through when there’s market crashes?

Europe can negotiate drug prices. America should negotiate labor incentives.

Stop with tax breaks we know don’t keep them here. It’s just undervalues your workforce for nothing.



You were giving a little props( backhanded) to the Chinese for their space station launch.

They didn’t just rest on what the international community did. Made their own station and showed their value.

America should do the same.
