We cannot reverse this trend but we can slow it down. The corporate tax rate is too high. It's encouraging businesses to leave the country. Further there are too many tax loopholes in corporate taxes that reward companies for sending jobs overseas. We need to eliminate these loopholes and cut corporate taxes in half, however we can't do that without major spending cuts or raising personal income tax. A bill that would cut corporate taxes, provide some spending cuttings and restructure corporate taxes would go along way toward bring jobs back to America.
Bullshit...There are so many loopholes in the corporate tax laws that corporations like Exxon Mobil and GE pay ZERO corporate tax.
Even at ZERO, there is no way Americans workers can compete with 3rd world wages...EVER.
Here's what we do...we tax the living shit out of corporations...for every America job they create, they get a tax reduction. If they create enough domestic jobs, they pay no taxes.
If they want to outsource jobs and pay wages that support squalor, then let the CEO's go live in that squalor.
