Were the high tech jobs lost to outsourcing or competition? 50 or 60 years ago we didn't have to compete with anyone. Now we have Japan, China, Taiwan etc
Again I say we are not changing and adjusting to the times. Who's fault is that?
Oursourcing is more a result of over regulation than wages and benefits. After all, higher wages can always be dealt with by raising prices. There is no way to combat regulation aside from closing or leaving.

Competition?
Let's go down the list here. Businesses in this country flourish because of security, an educated work force, great infrastructure, a great judicial system and a plethoria of services offered to them.
Most of this comes from the tax payer. So in addition to benefitting from all these factors and the work of the American Tax payer in their very companies, executives still weren't happy with profit margins.
So they bought politicians to get rid of what they didn't like. That being the tax rate and regulations.
And in return?
They use favorable trade deals and tax rates to go overseas to hire employees that work pennies on the dollar.
You'd think that these executives would be thankful for what they had..and realize that overall they benefit from our consumer driven economy.
But they aren't.
The only thing that seems to make them happy..is big paychecks.
Knowing that..what are you guys offering up?
Bigger paychecks for executives.
And a gutting of the middle class.

So having a competant government and a strong economy is bad for the middle class?
You do realize there are no classes right?
Um, yeah, actually they are.
Or Rush Limbaugh would be a jail cell with Jodie the Crackhead.
Frankly, I'm not sure Romney would bring either to the US< to be honest.
He's pretty much what got us into this mess. Destroying the middle class so a few rich douchebags could have $200,000 Car Elevators and $77,000 riding horsies.
Again we see that Bush was a six year president, 2001 to 2007. The Bush Depression happened under Obama's presidency which began in 2007 while he was a junior senator.The middle class has been losing since 1992.
Obama was supposed to save the middle class.
Yeah, that worked. Wealth of U.S. families has plunged to lowest level in two decades | Deseret News
That data is two years old.
Americans net worth is up $9 trillion dollars since Obama took office.
Thanks for reminding me.
Americans net worth went from about 44 trillion to about 68 trillion under Bush. It then took a nosedive to about 51 trillion under Obama, and has slowly worked it's way back up to about 63 trillion... which is still less that the high under Bush.
BTW, this is Chris's source
Thanks for the link.And, youhave a link for that 2012 data on Americans' net worth?
See, because this 2010 data on Americans' net worth is the most current there is - from the Federal Reserve. The Fed has already updated this data to include this year?
Wow. Let's see the link.
TIA.
I probably posted this a dozen times. From the Fed....
http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/data/TNWBSHNO.txt
And I am sorry, I was wrong. It's up to $10 trillion since Obama took office.
Yet, the net worth of households fell 40% between 2007 and 2010. What can I say?
Obama has yet to save the middle class, like he said he would. The middle class is much worse off today than it was in 1992.

Obama never addresses the uncertainty that is blocking job growth.
The era of well paid low skill jobs has passed. Turning a bolt on a production line no longer is available. The rich are educated thus they can change with and absorb a new economy model. Is it their fault the uneducated don't further their education and as a result are trapped in the past?
By the way, I went from minimum wage to nearly 6 figures in under a decade and I'm an ex convict. So don't give me some bullshit sob story.
Except that alot of that outsourcing was of high tech jobs done by super edcuated people.
Ah...so we are in the era of the extremely wealthy..and the uber poor.
Why does that sound so familiar?

Of course not then he might actually have to say what he is going to do about it, which is nothing.

What a bunch of bullshit - government hasn't provided ANYTHING to most businessed. In fact, liberal government has HINDERED businesses with their stiffling regulations and stiffling taxes in the name of liberal greed and "spread-the-wealth" Commiunist ideology.
Businesses pay the highest corporate tax rate in the world - so they MORE than pay for the "security" and "education" bullshit that you try to use against them.

Pretty weak.
Bush was the goose that flew into the engine.
Obama landed the plane in the Hudson.
The engines were fine when Obama crashed the country.
When the middle class is under-employed and financially stressed the country's economy is in the tank, and yet this guy and his band of merry progressives propose all we have to do is spend more of what this country does not have. It takes balls, a vision, and leadership to make tough decisions and yet he has demonstrated he has neither.
