If you were the new President, would the following be an avenue you would explore?

Please respond first with YES or NO

and then offer an explanation if you so desire.

A Republican president, who is interested in demonstrating that the Republican Party is interested in the economic health of former USA businesses, should rescue those businesses from the other countries, by offering incentives that are too attractive for businesses to resist.  The cost of moving back to the USA should be tax deductable with all receipts and invoices presented.  The cost of purchasing property on a percentage of property required to place the buildings will tax deducted on a three year schedule.  Those businesses that do not relocate in inner city districts or who are not concerned with manufacturing will receive free property tax for ten years in addition to an income tax fee of only 50% of the going rate.  No matter what the company's function is, and no matter where it is located, the company will have those regulations that make it difficult to exist removed.  Desired results: Returning former USA businesses to the USA; skilled and non-skilled people who have been accessing government assistance would no longer require government assistance; skilled and non-skilled people who have been working inn positions whose compensations are less than what once the worker's standard may return to a higher plateau of salary.  There would be a creation of small stores surrounding the businesses with food and other needed items which would also help in the tax base and with unemployment reduction; and company-school relationships could be established to create scholarships to workshops, to work-related camps, and/or to college, and to sponsor field trips; and to cause a lowering of the inner city unemployment rate.

  • Geez, Michael.  DO you have a fan club?!!  4 votes for Michael.  WOW.  So what are you doing in, say, 2 years.  Would you like a nice salaried position?  I comes with great benefits and a big house.  I know.  It's all white and you cannot paint it, even on weekends!  The other drawback is that it is in Washington, D.C.  I know it is not Bar Harbour, ME, but...

  • Michael, you get my vote!

  • Simple, fire all HHS employees and lock the doors. Same with IRS, Education, bureau of land management, Indian affairs, welfare EPA etc, etc.maybe as president I can't close the departments without Congress's authorization but I can simply send them home and shutter the doors.watch the economy explode on its own. You don't need government to make wealth, you need the government to get the hell out of the way. The military will be on the border with shoot to kill orders if after three commands to stop entry into this country( without proper authorization ). Only provide welfare to the truly needy, handicapped indigent individuals. Drill, frac and mine like America depends on it. Let every nation on God's great earth that we will not attack you, but if you attack us we will kill with impunity until you get the message to leave us alone. Encourage Americans to be as generous as possible with the rest of the citizens of the world but only with privately donated money, not government taken with force money. Good start, but I bet most people already think I am a heartless bastard. Not true, I am just a bastard.
  • First of all you have to start at the root of the problem, GREED. The thieves in Washington DC that are working with the thieves on Wall Street have to be dealt with on a criminal level. Next our import/ export ethics ( taxes and charges imposed that once again fill the pockets of Washington officials) must be adjusted to encourage corporations to want to be in the USA, not third world countries. The next step is to stop special interest spending and most of the free monthly checks going out. Lazy people by nature will let someone feed them until the cabinets are empty  and then will look for their own food. Our government throws away enough money on welfare that if it were reduced by 75% , and those drawing that are able to work instead of laying around, having children, drinking, drugging ect. on the tax payers dime, not only would they obtain self esteem but the other 40% or so could feel some relief.
