Less taxes? Wouldn't that be one of those government polices that effects job creation? Hmm?
Are you also aware that those international companies only make up about 5% of American based corporations?
This new talking point ya'll came up with is getting worse and worse.
Bolded.
The Wall Street Journal said:
U.S. multinational corporations, the big brand-name companies that employ
a fifth of all American workers, have been hiring abroad while cutting back at home, sharpening the debate over globalization's effect on the U.S. economy.

Also, note, I did not say it was entirely the fault of the private sector, only that it was partially the fault of the private sector.
Continuously, it doesn't matter to what degree those international corporations make up a part of American Corporations, what matters is the amount of impact they have, as Major Representatives of the Private Sector, on American Jobs.
That impact was 2.9 million or so lost in the face of 2.1 million gained Abroad. Nearly as much as Obama promised to save (and failed to do so entirely) with his stimulus package.
It is Partially the Private Sector's fault. End of the line.
Yes, less taxes is a government policy, but if we make them pay less taxes then the government gets less money from them for things like, oh, say The Military, or Roads, or Police, or Education, or Housing Subsidies.
Wouldn't
that be awesome? All so we can keep greedy people here! Wooo!
It is not the burden of America to make things easier for American Corporations to the detriment of America. It is the Burden of American Corporations to be Loyal To America and to Bring Improvment to America. Yes, even a corporation has responsibility to the country in which it was founded and which supported it, and whose policies and laws allowed it to Become a multinational corporation in the first place! Otherwise they should not be allowed to call themselves American Corporations, and none of the ones on that list are anymore!
