Noted and ignored rather than addressed? Punishing past success seems a strange idea though snoopcester Send a noteboard - 09/03/2010 10:54:25 AM
Could have some funny results though - big companies with market saturation could move into different markets to take advantage of their size and the tax break. Intel cola? Bud headache tablets?
Of course the companies in those areas who don't qualify for the tax break and can't expand (Not always through lack of money - if you are already selling all you can make, you just lose money by making more that no one wants) would be undercut...

I don't think that deals with my objection. - 08/03/2010 11:27:48 PM 185 Views
Sure it does. Expand or die is pretty much what it says. Your objections are noted, and ignored. - 09/03/2010 12:43:53 AM 175 Views

Wouldn't all the current manufacturing businesses just spin-off mini-factories? - 08/03/2010 10:54:32 PM 161 Views

but does not Congress write/pass legislation? - 09/03/2010 01:33:25 AM 158 Views
Let's not be naive. The President has the power to introduce and direct legislation. - 09/03/2010 03:00:05 AM 151 Views
