This is wrong....... when taxes go up, business has several choices, only one is pass the cost onto the consumer. Either cut profits, cut wages or raise prices. Or a 4th, invest profit back into the business to hide it from gov taxes. Which is what many did in the 1960s.

Wallstreet has seen the largest profits in history for the last 2 years while the rest of us got the shaft. When are you going to think outside your box? Because your box does not seem to have the answers?

As to moving production over seas, that should be taxed on any products that those traitor companies want to import. We should lower taxes here and tax the shit out of imports. Just like the founders of this nation did all the way till Reagan.
