Because government tax policies and import policies made it a lot more profitable to make things offshore and import them. That started in the 90s (GHW Bush/Clinton) Then you had the Clinton era deregulation that made the idea of money making money more attractive than actually making anything. Most of that Clinton era business boom was just an illusion (fraud, phony profits and irrational exuberance in the stock market) and the GW Bush boom was all based on borrowing money that didn't exist. The people who got rich were the ones who knew when to cash in before both bubbles popped. And the only politician to call it right on, Ron Paul. you should have been a standup comedian. the kluxer has no more understanding of economics than he does of his love affair with the KKK Reply: Actually Ron Paul was the only one to call several economic disasters correctly of all the Pols. He seems to have a better understanding of Econ 101 than 95% of the rest of the politicians and most of the public also. He will not be President, but would make one hell of an advisor. Probably the best candidate and will also not get the nod, is Newt G. He was the one who balanced Clinton's budgets. The Contract with America was one of the best things that happened to WJC. His first 2 years were a spending orgy. Newt seems to be the only one who is concerned about overspending. |

Dumbsh1t Obama doesn't seem to get it. and medical care in the US is free, right? we spend less of a proportion of our GDP on medical care than canada, right? our healthcare is cheaper and more affordable than canada's right? Nothing is free. That is a fleabag fantasy. The question is who and how it is paid for. and yet you think american healthcare is free. Never said it was. But you can change providers if one isn't servicing your needs. The results are much higher service levels than you see in Canada. You have more MRIs, you get surgery faster...less likely to die waiting. Hell, even our premiers in charge of health care prefer the USA. While it is nationalized, it is rationed, basic and long waits. let's see. 1 guy goes here for healthcare He has money. But the point being he thought Florida would do him better. meanwhile milions dont have it in the US. For many it is about priorities. guess he doesnt know that. I do. I lived in a rental, neighbors told us their experience. Skipped HC for decades, going to Greece, Italy, Spain, China...every year some place new. Then he needed a bypass and they had to sell the house. They had the money. Don't get me wrong, I am not against universal health care. I just have a huge gripe on how it is implemented and run. Ends up being a greedy government tax grab if your not careful. And rationing sets in even though they don't talk about it. Even preferences, politicians first, then workers, the old folks get idle time. Here is an example: http://www.calgarysun.com/2011/06/08...stem-zwozdesky Just don't go for the Obama knee jerk tax grab and engineer the system including abuses by crooks including governemnt. oh. it's not. it's about twice as expensive Yep, an no line ups and the best care. We have no choice, government took it away from in hyper-taxation. HAHAHAHA the best care? proof? Lots. If health care is so great in Canada, why would a premier got to Florida? What better proof of that do you need. well...none. none at all. life expectancy is higher in many countries like japan with socialized medicine but he has his fantasies and line? uh...how long do you wait in the US if you have no insurance? No clue, I always was with aid up insurance. But agree here, if cocaine, heroin and/or booze is more important than your family, why waste resources on you? For Canada, health care tuned out to be a government tax grab. and yet it works Marginally. But the coverage is crap. Most people purchase additional coverage anyways. You have to, $2600/year in my case. Just to make up for what government does not cover. Like travel abroad. Private room so I don't share with 12 others. in the US it's an insurance grab. govt medcial care is better AND cheaper than the free market Doubt it. Just fleabagger bull****. Remember, I lived there for 10 years and used the system twice for myself. Busted rib and a case of fly fishing elbow, bursitis (sp?). Know of others, work buddy. US is consistently faster and in most cases better. The amount of leftie media propaganda and BS. Might want to call the Obama the Pied Piper of perals blind geed making people march to the tax-slaughter house. -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. |

The employer is not going to be taxed but I bet those people taking their 401k money out in the future will get their ass kicked on it. Tax-sheltered retirement income is taxed as ordinary income when distributed. Always was, is, always will be. It's expected that your income will be less when you retire. You might be able to use Roth IRA's to some extent if you think working vs. retirement yaxes will flip on you. Normally it doesn't work that way. Basically you've said if you're outside when it rains you'll get wet. I think they are going to try to discourage people from cashing out their 401ks to try to save the stock market. That usually happens in the tax code. I highly doubt that would fly. As I've said, 401k's have always been sold as taxable as ordinary income. Changing those rules would **** people off more than Ryan's Medicare destruction plan. There is a big problem coming when 83 million boomers do start pulling that much money out of the market and there is not the excess income coming along behind them to replace it. It is just another example of the demographic problem that is going to threaten our whole pension model. The only one we are really acknowledging is SS but all of the pay as you go programs are threatened the same way. I think you overstate the entire boomer deal. I've seen there were only 76 million boomers ever born. They span 16-18 years, so don't hit entitlements at once. Many are already dead and never hit entitlements. As some come into entitlements, others go to St. Peter. Boomer life expectancy is about 69 years. So the idea that they all live into their 80's and 90's is a myth. As far as pulling money out of Wall Street, some. But a lot will still be there when they kick off. Hardly anybody with savings dies broke. Tax policy is far more likely to hit inheritors and so keep equities uncashed. Right now a worker would be paying a very minimal tax on this money but I bet those numbers will go up sharply as we try to dig our way out of crushing debt. Depends on income, but you have a point there. Low income workers could lose by saving. Here's the bright side. Low income worker don't have any ****ing money to save. These days the closest thing to a pension people have is the 401k Stop right there. The closest thing MOST people have to a pension in the the U.S. is SS. You still don't understand that. I don't have figures, but a wild guess is less than half of current workers even have money in a 401k, and far fewer significant money. 100% of them have SS, with some special exceptions. and if your employer will match, you should save all he matches. I would not be shocked to see legislation that requires a certain level of 401k savings ... for the same reason mentioned above, to replace some of that boomer money that is coming out of the equities. I would be shocked at forced 401k contributions. Wouldn't be shocked by the revolution that follows. What you're saying is the government would force worker taxation be paid directly to Wall Strett fat cats. In your dreams. But add in government bamboozled and skimmed SS over the years....not a pretty picture. Government borrows it into general spend at 1%, inflation conservative at 3%, that is a year over year 2% reduction in vlaue with the money sitting in SS. And over the years, that adds up big time as a shortfall to the beneficiary. Pensions not in your name and personal account are usually a big scam, government included. -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. |

It should reward long term (several years) investment and very short term investments (flash trading) should actually be taxed higher than ordinary income. That already happens. And big huge tax increases coming after 2012 already on the books. If you have long term gains, you may want to realize them early just to avoid the 20% tax rate hike coming. more pipe dreams tax increases? where? oh. none. we NEED more taxes, especially on the rich, but americans will never let the rich be taxed. Government is trying to end the depression with bu11sh1t. They generate 4.5% inflation, GDP grows by 2.25% and they say the depression has ended. Only with fleabagger math, as inflation adjusted the economy still shrank. And in shrink, it also generated less government revenue. A real vicious economic cycle caused by government debtors denial and mindless statism. 4.5% inflation? where? ppi index went up 0.2% last month Don't believe the government numbers. Find a government CPI and check out cars, homes, gold, silver even flour say from 1914. You will find CPI is bogus. Keeps unions happy to BS them down. Ponzi number, make you think a 2.5% raise is good if they tell you inflation s 2%. OK, radios are cheaper. CPI is just BS. and the teabaggers think we have to cut taxes on the rich because their income only went up 500% in the last 30 years. and federal taxes are at a 40 year low but the right knows none of this Tax reciepts are but not net tax load. Because over 20% are unemployed and company are not making money like they used too. No profit, no/low wages means less taxes. -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. |

ROFLMAO!!! the problem is NOT ENOUGH consumption! he's SUCH a moron and he's right wing! And can't have consumption if your credit is bouncing and your working for less. That is why Reagonomics worked and Obamanomics screwed up. Reagan left the month 100% efficiently in the peoples pockets.

You mean like Japan? Lets examine that. Unions in Japan DEMAND loyalty or management will not run you off, the unions will. Unions are also responsible in helping management make a modest, sustainable profit, and to address employee issues. Hell, they are more like a HR department than a union. CEOs are expected to resign when they lay off people for issues not involving the laid off persons performance. And very rare to see a CEO get paid more than 10 times the lowest wage they pay. Strikes rare too. As government will step in and tell the unions to get back to work or quit if demands are not reasonable for the type of work. You do know socialist worker unions started the Nazi movement right? uh...no they didnt. you lying sack of **** nazi lover. since when did you start loving hitler?
