    OMG! A company decides to go overseas after getting shafted with the highest corp tax rates in the world? Say it ain't so!

    Then again, the liberal hollyweird types have no problem whatsoever that people like Johnny Depp will refuse to live in the U.S. because we are "dirty", but has no issues with making movies here and getting rich off us...and you idiotic lefties eat it up.

    Here's a clue for you....the rich will always stay rich.

    A business has no obligation to become a local job provision panacea. Certainly we'd like to see it, but they aren't legally required to do so.

    Maybe if you lefty big government gimme gimme entitlement minded idiots would quit screeching about the "evil rich" and stop being envious and jealous and asking the government to rape them on your behalf, maybe they'd stay....

    Before you blame the rich, H-1B visas were made possible by the immigration act of 1965

    It's more complicated than that.

    LOL! I'm not a lefty. I'm actually quite conservative but some people lump everybody together because they have different views. Black and white. Black and white. Life isn't like that.

    Maybe if workers didn't cost money than maybe global companies wouldn't need to insource foreign workers when they takeover. :rolleyes:

    This is perhaps a radical idea, but maybe the U.S. should actually focus on and work toward becoming a post-job society. I mean, everyone is so focused on their jerbs that they forget one simple thing...work sucks! You don't need a job, you need money. So what if we were to develop artificial intelligence and robotics to the point where human workers become obsolete? Or are we so devoted to the "curse of Adam" that we don't want a technological Utopia? I mean, we already have the high unemployment, so why don't we just own it?

    Oh yes, the exalted job creators created more jobs overseas.
