Obama should surround himself with successful CEOs and ask them what to do for a change.
...
I see a bunch of people toasting each other. What came of it?
Dunno, but you can't disagree that he DID do what you asked him to do. So that means you're gonna vote for him in 2012, right ? :biggrin:

We've had to hire lawyers just to read and interpret the regulations the Fed lawyers scheme up. Heck some of their own lawyers have a hard time with them.
Barney Frank has had to do the same.
More twisted hooey.
Herman Cain would be a great candidate for you. He wants all bills 3 pages or less.
The bills can be cartoons for what that's worth, It's the regulatory commissions the bills set up where the scheming lawyers and administrators end up complicating and destroying what the bills set out to do.
Which is why I specifically mentioned regulations not congressional bills and Acts.
Keep focusing on just the front end of the problem and ignore the meat. It's easier.

Can you provide a specific regulation of your industry, and the specific rules, where this is the case? I'm curious to see what you're referring to and hear how you think that reg could be simplified.
I used to work in banking, I'm no stranger to regulation.

Simple bring manufacturing back to the USA... Balance the differences between Unions and Business.
Rudi, it isn't just manufacturing. In my line of work (educational publishing) a huge amount of the work is no being done (badly but cheaply) in India. And I do not believe that this is because of government regulation or tax policy. It's about being cheap and maximizing profit and return for the damn shareholders.

That is the other part of the equation Uncle Wig and Apple is right there in the middle of that fecal material. Maximizing profits and not really giving back to the home team. Business's go overseas because they can make more money *(:>* It is all about the bottom line not their country or you or I. *(:>*
Oooops ~!~

One caution, that article is rife with NMFS slant and interpretations.
The critiques section is horribly misleading and frought with outright lies and single-vision distortions.
Also keep in mind NMFS has been challenged in courts with misconduct and blantant theft and repeated abuses of power.

It is ironic that people take pride in having squeezed companies every which way then cry when they take their business overseas. All Obama supporters, why don't you come out and condemn his corporate jet owners rant? TK, where are you on this? How can you be silent on anti-business practices of this administration and then start a thread like this? Why is he touting fantom "green jobs" while throwing road blocks at industries that could actually create real jobs.

Open the borders. Mexico is full of laborers willing to work for cheap. Bring them in, undercut the Chinese and Indian labor market. With their wages, they buy more stuff, increasing our overall economic activity. They in turn become the support to the stalling Social Security cycle. Make it a "work visa" at first so that if they don't retain gainful employment, they go back.
Of course, this involves lots of brown people who speak in a funny accent, so it's DOA.
