Bring back our jobs, or we will outsource your tax break.
The message is clear, if you want to take advantage of tax breaks while shipping American jobs overseas in search of cheaper labor then your tax breaks will be given to companies that choose to grow American jobs. In last night’s State of the Union address, President Obama threw down the gauntlet on those corporations that believe they can outsource their way to success in America.
“My message is simple. It is time to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs overseas and start rewarding companies that create jobs right here in America. Send me these tax reforms, and I will sign them right away.” (http://www.washingtonpost.com/...)
The President challenged Congress to come up with a tax reform that rewards job growth in America, in essence using the first eleven words of the Adam Smith quote
“ By preferring the support of Domestic, to that of foreign industry”
those important first eleven words that Thom Hartmann reminds us all in his book: Rebooting the American Dream, is one conservatives leave out.
Our job is simple, especially in an election year. We must push our representatives to get behind this plan to reward those who invest in the American middle class. The success of the American manufacturing base is vital to the success of the American middle class. Contact your representatives and tell them to put partisanship aside and respond to the only interest they should deem special; the people.
