[DeTomaso] NPC: Love your country

Sad thing is that I looked up why Apple makes products in China.  It was not labor cost, it is because of the high corporate tax here.  Our highest in the world corporate taxes are driving manufacturing (and jobs) out of the US, and not bringing in more total revenue.  What kind of idiot does that?

  Hey Gang

  I have trouble wrapping my head around the "big" numbers.  I read this
  week that Apple sold 75 Million I phones in the past quarter.  How do
  you manufacture 75 Million anything in three months, much less
  something as complicated as an I phone.  That's 35,000 an hour, or 600
  per minute, in the box and ready to go, 24/7 for 90 days.  Somebody
  somewhere is busting some serious ass.  Also read an article about New
  Orleans wanting 250 Billion federal dollars for improvements.  That
  works out to like $500,000/household.  It starts not making sense....

  I don't even want to try Trillions!  I'll be depressed all weekend,

  Don't know which side of the aisle I am on but I would prefer not to
  pay my portion of the national debt today.  It is $67,000 for each man
  woman and child in the country.  That amount will handle the debt today
  providing there are  300,000,000 people that pay today also.
  Feeling broke,

Not counted the costs of health insurance and welfare. This will bring
you another few beloved US cars.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for that insight, Roland.You understand this issue better than many Ameri
cans do.


Have you heard about this one  -


Here in the USA, the GOP controlled congress passed a budget bill, signed by the
 President,  that defunded the IRS 346 million dollars. All in the name of reign
ing in the TAX MONSTER.


YEA!! Let's stick it to the IRS. That will show them damn government revenue age
nts.


The IRS commissioner wrote those cuts would result in a loss of $2 BILLION in lo
st tax collections.


Save $346 million but lose $2 billion.  Sorry, I guess I just don't understand e
conomics as well as my elected officials.


I do understand the idea for smaller and more efficient government. Many want it
 to be run more efficiently, like a business.

Therefore, I do not understand the "business" logic of handicapping your source
of income - tax collection.


I'll stop for now. I'm sure I've already provided fodder for some interesting ri
ght-side-of-the-aisle replies.  ;-)
