Who Do You Think Will Work Harder To Stop Outsourcing Of Jobs? Clinton Or Obama?
Posted by China Sourcing CommentatorAug 19
maybe not stop all outsourcing but at least stop the tax breaks that encourage the companies to go overseas giving them incentives to stay here at home instead.

I don’t support either one. That being said I think Obama would be the best on that subject. He really sounds like he means it when he says that he will end the tax breaks for companies going overseas.
I will work harder for what?
Obama will do more as he is not owned by the corp lobbyists.
American Jobs: Barack Obama introduced the Patriot Employer Act of 2007 to provide a tax credit to companies that maintain or increase the number of full-time workers in America relative to those outside the US; maintain their corporate headquarters in America; pay decent wages; prepare workers for retirement; provide health insurance; and support employees who serve in the military.
Outsourcing isn’t always bad it gives the American public more purchasing power and makes everything more affordable.
Are you trying to bankrupt American corporations? The cost of labor in this country is ridiculous, not to mention that the unions b*tch every other year that they want more. Let the U.S. companies outsource while at the same time we insource from other nations.
this is one of Obamas major platform issues. clinton will be clinton, and do nothing.
probably Obama. Although I think it won’t help.
Clinton will do absolutely nothing and the problem will continue (along with the other associated issues). What comes out of her mouth cannot be believed.
McCain, obviously, also will do nothing.
Obama is saying that he will do something in this regard, and I have no reason to believe that he would not as yet. His word is still good with me.
Not only will neither do anything to stop outsourcing, both will actually cause more outsourcing with the policies they are preaching. Both want to tax businesses and the rich, (claiming to help the little guy). Every thing that increases business expenses, from taxes to regulations, gives these businesses more reason to leave, for other countries.
Obama all the way. He is FOR Americans
neither.
Dr. Paul already spoke the truth LONG ago
C. The working class.
If the working class is to achieve a better society for themselves, they must take state power themselves.
Neither Clinton nor Obama will do anything to keep jobs in the US. While Obama talks a good game, companies will run for the hills once he reveals what his economic packgae will be.
nobody- it’s all about the Big Company Boss’ pocketbook getting thicker. I might be wrong, but I’ve never heard a CEO, CFO, or any kind of upper management take a 10-20% paycut to help out the workers or to keep a job in America.
Bill Clinton (regardless of his personal life) was the only President in my awareness to have a major surplus and care about the everyday people. Don’t even start about Bush and all his red numbers. Hillary is no Bill. I highly doubt Obama has the backbone to take care of business. And Republicans only care about Big Business, so, we the little people might be screwed.
The majority of all Unions have been giving and giving (no more retirement benefits, complete diminishment of wages, paying for rising health care costs) while Mr. Big takes more and more. Most factory workers can hardly afford the gas for their car, let alone groceries, clothes, rent/house payment, utilities…. and that’s not even the ones with kids!
How is importing all our needs/wants cheaper, when the cost to buy those things is still going up? Simple… we’re paying to make sure the Big Shots can keep their Lexus, Porches, Yukons, etc. Or their $500,000 homes, country club memberships, home theaters, insert-incredibly-expensive-frivolous-ne… here they can dream of. While the little people continue to struggle and make due with rising health costs, unstable housing markets, and that nice little threat of their job going to Mexico or China, they continue to live the good life, and no amount of bueracracy is going to change Big Business’ mind.
Obama.
His platform is 210 billion jobs or is that money/?
