Schools are not businesses but ...

They leave the country, instead. Obama complains about businesses going overseas all the time.How about this:
If you were a business owner and you felt your business was over-taxed, over-regulated, and the unions forced you to pay wages you felt were unfair, as well as paying medical and dental plans, pensions, etc...would you continue to do business under those conditions?
Unions don't force anything. They negotiate. Businesses are not overtaxed and we are not over regulated. If we were, you could easily list the regulations that led to American businesses being more profitable than ever. Please do.
If you were a serious business owner, you owned the kind of a business that relies on professionalism, efficiency, people skills and great first impressions to make a profit, where second impressions don't exist...
And most careers are like that...
Would you want your employees showing up to work wearing jeans and sneakers and baseball caps ?
Would you want your employees to run a half an hour late, and leave a half an hour, or 15 minutes early ?
Would you want your employees to do a bad job, and then instead of fixing the problem, just sit there and deny doing a bad job, and hand the customers a bunch of lines about how great they are at doing their job ?
If you were a parent of a child aged about 14, that puts him at about the 9th grade.. ok... the majority of his legally entitled school years are over.. the school system now has only 3 more years to make sure that your kid has a high school education that qualified him to go to college or trade school..
And your kid couldn't do the multiplication tables.
Would you want to hear a bunch of bullshit lines from administrators and teachers and counselors, about how great they are at their jobs ?
That's what teachers unions do, and I have seen it all the time in Philadelphia... I myself am a victim of it.
Its a teachers union, not a students union, ok ?!!
And your kid, the student is what counts, not the teacher.
So if you support unions, why do you ?
This is what union, and government workers (and both) do.
I am a business owner. I actually wear jeans to work most days.
Public schools are not businesses and a HS education is not a widget.
Teachers work long hours. To believe otherwise is to be gullible and uninformed. Teachers are not all effective. Some aren't. But.....the overwhelming majority are.
Show me a kid who has attended public school to grade 9 and can't do his multiplication tables and I'll show you a kid with a less than desirable home life.
You are a useful tool for the anti-education crowd.
How about this:
If you were a business owner and you felt your business was over-taxed, over-regulated, and the unions forced you to pay wages you felt were unfair, as well as paying medical and dental plans, pensions, etc...would you continue to do business under those conditions?
We were awarded $50,000 in damages.
No, this is MY business and I run it, not you.
You started the business because you are a businessperson. You have found it is much more profitable, both for yourself and the people who have invested in your company (aka stockholders), to do business elsewhere. Many have.How about this:
If you were a business owner and you felt your business was over-taxed, over-regulated, and the unions forced you to pay wages you felt were unfair, as well as paying medical and dental plans, pensions, etc...would you continue to do business under those conditions?
The question is: How much do you pay the people that make you all of your money?
If your business is over-taxed, over-regulated, and the unions forced you to pay wages you felt were unfair, then why did you start/buy the business?

Are they being charged with tax evasion?They leave the country, instead. Obama complains about businesses going overseas all the time.
Cause they're skirting tax.
Burger King is defecting to Canada who's effective corporate tax rate is higher than the US, but they get to walk on tens of millions in deferred tax they owe to the US.
Apple is using funds made off-shore to purchase items, import them, then deducting the cost from their US taxes on monies they never paid tax.
Where did I say it was a problem for the business? It's a problem for the government that loses tax income.You started the business because you are a businessperson.

Then whats the problem?

Then they aren't skirting anything. They've simply taken their business elsewhere.Are they being charged with tax evasion?
It's not illegal.
It can no longer tax a business that doesn't manufacture or make profits in it's country.How does the government have tax losses?
Would you want your employees showing up to work wearing jeans and sneakers and baseball caps ?
