GOP Senators block Job's initiative

Republican's claim creating jobs is the #1 priority. It sure doesn't seem that was does it?

They won't even let it come up for debate!

Hooray outsourcing!

 

Nothing from the GOPenut gallery?

 

So now Obama wants to stop outsourcing jobs? Why then has state and federal government agencies outsourced our infrastructure jobs to China?

Cake.

Eat it too.

 

/Yawn nice of you to avoid addressing the block. Why won't the GOP allow the anti-outsourcing initiative to be debated?

Also what specific infrastructure jobs has Obama outsourced to China?

 

.....

They are too intent on getting your article onto the 2,3 or 4th page away from any scrutiny....heh

But the obstructive do-nothing agenda of the republicans is well known to the populace...their popularity rating is a miserable 9%. You would think that they would be alarmed about their unpopulartity but republicans can only do one thing at a time.

 

let them waste their time debating it all they want. It at least makes it appear to those who are clueless about such things that the Senate is doing something

hmmm, a 20% tax break to bring jobs back to the USA. Why don't they propose painting my office walls instead as an incentive. Neither will help.

Once again proving that liberals in govt cannot help with private sector jobs. All they have done is hurt them.

 

lmao nonsensical partisan rambling....somehow thats a reason to refuse a tax break? no, theres only one reason

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Senate has rejected further consideration of a bill Democrats say would have eliminated existing tax breaks for employers who ship their jobs overseas. While Republicans sought to squash it as political theater, Democrats admit quarreling over the “Bring Jobs Home Act” was openly influenced by the 2012 presidential campaign.

“It’s fairly easy to see why Republicans are blocking our bill to stop outsourcing,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said at a press conference before the vote. “They’re obviously defending their presidential nominee, who of course made a fortune by shipping jobs overseas.”

 

When you are allowed to profit off of what is tantamount to slave labor and send money overseas you don't deserve tax breaks. In fact, what you deserve is import taxes for your lack of patriotism and ingratitude. If it puts you out of business so be it. That's the risk of having a business. Just like people here have to deal with a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty economy due to decisions made by people outside their control other people ought to feel the burn, too.

If you don't like it move to Singapore with your other crony capitalist buddies.

 

That was not a job initiative bill. It was a partisan vote bill.

 

It was a partisan job initiative bill.

 

Really? It's partisan to want to keep jobs in America?

 

Really? It's partisan to want to keep jobs in America?

 

Everything is partisan in America these days.

 

Well Obama wants to outsource and so does his handpicked "jobs council" wants to outsource so the republicans obviously dont want to be called obstructionists AGAIN, so they are letting you Dems continue to ship out american jobs and make immoral profits.

You fail again. Oh yeah that is from huffpo so lets not hear anything about poor sourcing, we know you lap up huffpo.


For all the smart (non-liberal) people in the room. Read the comments from this article nd read "1truthseeker"s comments. PLEASE DONT MISS THE ONE WHERE THEY CALL THEMSELF AN INDEPENDANT VOTER!!! Typical liberal dishonesty

 

From your article

The vast majority of major corporations in this country have participated in outsourcing. No matter what large company was put on the panel, they would have contributed to the problem. However, they can offer suggestions on how to create more jobs in the US.

Major corporations are the reason we need to penalize outsourcing. We should focus more on providing tax breaks and incentives for small businesses who keep jobs in the country, not large profit machines who are only interested in low labor costs.

But you really don't address how the GOP is blocking the president's efforts to reduce outsourcing. Does cutting off tax deductions for outsourcing companies sound like a man who is all in favor of shipping them over seas?

 

are you really that blind with partisan hackmanship that you don't realize this proposal was nothing?

And you cite unpatriotic business people. Let me tell you, if you would pay 3x the price for your gadgets I'd gladly build here. But, the capitalism you so despise makes it possible for you to make the swell posts you do, from low cost computers/tables/smartphones on low cost broadband networks

have you ever heard the term "bite the hand which fees you"?

lemme guess, you support the occupiers as well

 

how do you suppose this 20% tax break will help the business you started? Is it enough to cover the dramatic increase in costs having more employees stateside? Will you need to raise prices and will the market bear your price increases?

I know it means diddly squat to my business and a 20% tax break will not even scrape the surface of increased costs.

 

Durrrrrr.... From your article an Obama hack tries to make excuses for Obama.

Seriously? Weak sauce

Btw Brundage is an Obama spokesperson. You lose BAD!!! You libs should probably start a new thread and try again...

Oh look at that!!!

 

They arent blind just partisan and dishonest. They know better, no one is that stupid, but they dont want to admit an ounce of fault du to their ego(s).

 

So does that mean you have no counter argument? It seems to me it is you who is making excuses for the GOP blocking this initiative.

 

Response to what? Obama being the Outsorcer in Chief? Or a response to an Obama spokesperson making excuses for Obama? Am i supposed to accept an idiotic excuse for the Idiot in Chief and argue on your level (i.e. accept BS without an original thought level)? You quoted a line from a paid Obama apologizer from a WHOLE ARTICLE that illustrates what an outsourcer Obama and his hand selected friends are, from HUFFPOST the liberal standard, and you want me to take your joke ass seriously???

 

First, your assumption that the Dems bill will bring jobs back to the US is wrong.

Assuming the bill does what the media says it does (I didnt read the bill, maybe there are some sneaky things in there, never can tell with politicians that dont read the bills they vote on), its a total failure.

A 20% tax deduction for the costs of bringing jobs into the US is nothing, companies leave because of the high cost of labor, higher taxes, and regulatory cost. Plus obamacare, dodd-frank, and the TBD crap DC has in the wings. A one time 20% tax break is nothing compared to those recurring expenses.

Penalizing companies that move overseas with a tax penalty is the work of a moron. Companies are outsourcing because the cost of being in the US is too high. This does nothing to help that problem. The penalty will do nothing to stop outsourcing but it will encourage companies on the edge not only to outsource but leave the US entirely and become a foreign owned company.

The dems bill is politics aimed at the ignorant.

If the GOP has to play games to stop this bad bill, good for them.

This is nothing more than a political election stunt by the dems. If the GOP has to play political stunts to hurt the dems in the election, good. At least the GOP can do something positive.

Whups. Feel free to tape your mouth shut now.

 

Only a pack of idiots (See; "Senate Dems and their RINO Pals") would be trying to INCREASE COSTS to US businesses for ANY reason,at this point in time.

Obama's largest bundlers are ALL MAJOR OUTSOURCERS, but, of course, they would BE EXEMPTED, for some reason or another, as the sleazoid Chicago-style White house always does.

 

Wow, three pages and not a single right-wing answer that amounts to anything more than the standard boilerplate.

Yet, they'll continue to blame President Obama because nothing can get through Congress unless Norquist approves of it first.
