They are: 1 high taxes (corporate and personal). 2 excessive and intentionally punative regulations. 3 regulatory and economic benefits for companies to move offshore. If we reversed this our country would be in an economic boom within 6 months and most of the rest of the world would be pulled up by our boom. <br />The problem is that our politicians and bureaucrats think in very short term and very selfish terms. Making these changes would reduce their "take" and their power. In effect they would rather ride us down into a great depression then give up anything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
