I make it short and sweet, just a few examples and there are many many more that can be given. I'll start by saying that at one time the Boston area had the largest shoe and textile industry in the country, this is no more and nor could you open another one with being heavily regulated and taxed not to mentioned sued by just about all the surrounding towns and citizens.Tell me how are our government polices forcing business to ship jobs overseas? Is it because we regulate them to some extend to provide protection for those who work there and to protect the environment? Is it because our workers demand a decent pay check and won't accept 10 cents an hour? Let me ask this, do you believe that American workers need to accept the conditions of Chinese workers in order to be competitive in a global market?
Industries that are next to impossible to open in or near Boston, North Shore or South Shore;
Trucking companies
truck stops
shoe factories
Textile factories
chemical companies
food plants
jelliten plants
meat processing plants
furniture striping or restorations companies
steel plants
chemical warehousing
These types of companies I have mentioned are all heavily dependent on blue collar workers, and this is in a liberal state, pro union, pro environmental, pro workers rights etc., yet will be stonewalled every step of the way until it is unaffordable and unattainable to continue to pursue and operate in this state. This is what I am talking about in regards to regulations and taxation and this is why youngster are unaware of these things for the most part..
