shrub on low tax zones
from a friend of mine who wishes to remain anonymous:
-------------------
OK, Bush, so a Plant goes to China, Mexico or what ever and now the location is replaced with a low tax zone?

HOW ABOUT A LOW WAGE ZONE to compete with the slave wages of these countries?

How about a NON UNION zone for lower wages to compete with these countries?

How about a NON-MINIMUM Wage zone for low wage workers to work at minimal wages so as to compete with these countries?

How about ZERO OSHA and EPA control zones so that the company can compete with these countries?

How about a foreign worker zone where illegals can legally work for a miniscule wage so as to compete with slave wage countries!

Why not just make certain states "THIRD WORLD BUSINESS ZONES"?


LOW TAX ZONES ARE NOT ENOUGH. Low wages are the key. Low wages are the corporate cocaine that is attracting companies to move overseas.

So Bush, just how are you going to convince the American worker that he has to work for nothing to exist??? Come on OH Shrub, TELL US ALL!

Enterprise zones have been tried. Real Estate tax give aways have been tried BUT don't work.

It is the LOW WAGE of places like India, China, Indonesia, Mexico, etc. etc. etc. that is the MAJOR DRAW!


It's the achilles heel of the Republican Party.
In the end the great race to the bottom benefits no one!
