You want to make an immediate improvement in the condition and fate of this country? Do this. Change the tax code to stop the offshoring of jobs. Make it so unattractive tax-wise that no company would think of it. Write in big tax advantages to bringing industry back home and refurbishing its machinery at the same time.
How hard is it to understand? Oh, and in case no one noticed the dollar is at unheard of lows, so things manufactured in this country are relatively inexpensive (hence in demand) abroad. Rather than manufactur things overseas it is just possible we might find ourselves actually selling more overseas.
Oh, and if it broke a Treaty or two, well, that would bother me a great good deal I suppose.

3. You publish, you wait 90 days, you answer, then you put the Regulation in place |

and then the IRS gets to butt heads with the Justice Department for the next couple of years and finally the Court has to sift it all out - and in the meantime our Economy improves.
