Punishing companies for moving out is the wrong idea and is exactly what a socialist or dictator would do. Companies leave because it is too expensive to operate in the US.

Labor costs are only a part of the problem. High corporate taxes, Obamacare mandates, unemployment insurance, OSHA, EPA, NLRB, Payroll taxes etc. etc. ad nauseam drive these companies away.

We need to make America competitive by improving the environment for business. We need to stop punishing companies for hiring people and reduce the cost of doing business in the US.

So Middle America is supposed to bend over and help them maximize their greedy profits while they’re being conned and betrayed by the corporate frauds who own the corrupt in DC?

You don’t think all these regs, laws, EPA shit don’t help the fatcorps kill and bury their competition in the U.S.? Come on.

Career politicians and their lawyers should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers, so we know who their corrupt corporate sponsors are.

United Technologies, the parent company of Carrier Corp, paid a tax rate closer to 12% last year on profits of over $17 billion. Less than I paid percent wise.

"U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly says the head of the Carrier Corporation could not point to one federal regulation which the company says was responsible for its decision to relocate facilities in Indianapolis and Huntington to Mexico."
