I write a lot about the job...That's part of it. I write a lot about the job situation because I feel strongly that the Federal government puts a lot of obstacles in the way of hiring -- the new health care plan is the latest example. <br /><br />Thank you for taking time to write.

It will continue to be weak as long as it is to the advantage of corporations to hire outside this country to take advantage of lower labor costs rather than to hire Americans.<br /><br />In my book, Job Creation Tax Plan, I suggest a new income tax structure for corporations that will create a strong incentive for companies to invest their profits in expanding their domestic operations and hiring more Americans. The way it will work, to summarize, is to lower income tax rates for corporations that are hiring Americans, increasing their payrolls year by year, and if necessary raise taxes on corporations that are making large profits, but investing those profits in exporting jobs to other countries and are laying off American workers, or not hiring.<br /><br />This will create a necessary incentive to help create jobs, but will also empower growing companies to grow faster, producing jobs at a faster rate, because companies that are hiring Americans will have more after-tax profits to invest in their own growth.<br /><br />The challenge is to build public awareness of this proposal.Hamilton Bardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13474310285953261307noreply@blogger.com
