Another fact you might have forgot...they are "PRIVATE" companies, the government has NO business telling a private enterprise they can't do business over seas.
We're still a free society with private enterprises, the democrats haven't got their way...just yet.

Senate GOP blocks bill that would promote less outsourcing
By Lori Montgomery
Tuesday, September 28, 2010; 11:53 PM

The latest jobs bill from Senate Democrats - a plan to punish firms that ship jobs overseas - failed to clear a key procedural hurdle Tuesday after even some Democrats complained that the measure would hamper the ability of U.S. companies to compete in foreign markets.

Four Democrats and Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) voted with a united Republican caucus to block the bill, which was crafted to address the 9.6 percent unemployment rate in the run-up to November's midterm elections. On a vote of 53 to 45, the measure failed to garner the 60 votes needed to overcome a GOP filibuster.

Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) defended the bill as a "simple, common-sense" effort to "keep American jobs here in America" and to "stop forcing taxpayers in Nevada and across the nation to pay for giveaways that reward companies for sending American jobs overseas."

But Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) dismissed the bill as "a purely political exercise" that never had a chance of becoming law.

Now after reading your statement that is quoted above, you have the guts to question where the jobs are.....duh It is just plain common sense that if manufacturing was not shipped to other countries that there would not be a job problem here in the USA.

What part of a free economy don't you understand?
The government has no right, no constitutional authority to tell a PRIVATE business they can't go over seas.
"Punishing" companies....what a ridiculous mindset the democrats have. They are just stuck on stupid.

Have you read the bill?

If it was written by Pelosi or Reid, it most likely has some sewage in it that you won't be honest enough to know or admit.

Like $50 billion in pork.

Seascapes isn't educated. It is very common for India to place a big aircraft order and one of the conditions is getting supply contracts for parts of the planes.

I also got this paragraph off the same website "Washington Post" at the top, you can read it for yourself there, but I copied and pasted.

CORRECTION TO THIS ARTICLE
This article misstated the effects of a Democratic jobs bill that was blocked in the Senate. The measure would have offered business tax breaks worth more than $1 billion over the next 10 years and raised taxes on certain multinational corporations by more than $300 million, for a net tax cut of about $700 million.

Sounded like a pretty good bill to me coadie.

You are wrong again. leave business alone. Leave families alone.

I don't need a first lady in my kids lunch pail

It is none of her business what my kids eat for lunch. She has fat problems on her rear and my daughter at the age of her daughters was trying to qualify for the Olympics. We have brains.

Mark to market was part of the equities market meltdown. CRA from Dipstick Carter was part of the mortgage market meltdown. If so much junk had been left alone, the problems would not have come.

Obama is a business novice. He has no business experience and that has caused a lot of pain.

Whatever obama and Seascapes endorse, hurts the economy.
