The senator argued for the creation of an across-the-board 10-percent cut in corporate taxes for American factories in order to retain and attract jobs that might otherwise go overseas.

Randall Wolken, president of the Manufacturers Association of Central New York, disagreed with Clinton's assessment the current administration has been fatalistic.

"I do believe we have a major challenge that we need to address," Wolken said. "We need to be much more proactive and much less reactive."

Wolken said a tax cut for U.S.-based production would encourage and protect domestic manufacturing, but he was more skeptical of the creation of a new federal agency, arguing it is more important to get the government to aggressively retain and attract jobs.

Clinton said the proposed expanded research effort could be funded by postponing tax cuts supported by the Bush administration.

Let me get this straight. It's ok to use tax cuts to stimulate the economy when manufacturing is involved but it's bad to give ME a tax cut so I can go out in the marketplace and buy stuff.
All tax cuts are stimulative to the economy. Why pick and choose?

Um, wouldn't this be a tax cut for the wealthy?
Actually this is in agreement to President Bush's tax cuts to promote economical growth.

Watch out, America ... the krintungs are trying to steal our thunder again.
