    Color me shocked. Hardees breakfast is pretty good. I'm no fast food connoisseur but I can't do Taco Bell though. My body reacts...lets just say it reacts poorly to processed kangaroo meat.

    Your opening post buddy. You are right though. I guess Americans really do have a short attention span.

    Has nothing to do with the subject.

    Always have to turn nasty when things aren't going your way, don't you?

    Outsourcing is not the same thing as tax inversion. Outsourcing is assembling products in other countries or having help centers overseas. Tax inversion is moving the corporate headquarters to a different country by merging with a corporation in that country in order to receive beneficial tax rates. It's possible that there could be no loss of jobs or even a net increase in jobs in the US after a merger/tax inversion. That is what is supposed to occur with the pending Medtronic/Covidien merger.

    It's a strategic tax move, not outsourcing.

    You did...did you read what you posted in the first post of this thread?

    "DOZENS OF BUSINESSES MOVE HQS OUTSIDE AMERICA UNDER OBAMA"

    Before you say it, yes I agree you didn't say BECAUSE of Obama. You certainly inferred it though.

    Same question.

    Who said this move was Obama's fault?

    You are simply guilty of having rabbit ears. :laugh: Must affect your reading skills.

    The title of the thread is a simple statement of fact and nowhere in the article does it say it's obama's fault.

    No, I get that. I was speaking to the theme of Obama being this anti-business proponent.

    Rabbit ears, I say.:laugh:

    But if this occurred under Bush , you would be screaming to the rooftops it was his fault.

    A bad case of rabbit ears.

    I love watching you step all over yourself when you are so filled with rage that you can't even get your own story straight. I don't think we need anymore proof that your threads are an incoherent ramble session that end up going nowhere fast.

    From the article:
    Sadly, the Obama administration’s policies have driven more and more industries out of the country. Since 2008, more than two dozen companies have taken advantage of inversion. Here are seven other companies that have shifted production out of America in order to avoid our ridiculous regulatory schemes, or are considering the possibility of doing so.


    What was that about UoT's reading skills lacking?

    Do you deny that he has sponsored, backed, proposed and enacted numerous measures that hurt businesses in America?

    Careful now, a denial would make you look pretty silly. There is a mountain of evidence that he has.

    He stopped reading his own article three words into that sentence. That was enough to satiate him. I'll go on the record to say that I'm perfectly willing to hammer Obama on things that are worth going after. Continuation and even escalation of the Patriot Act, use of drones, Benghazi...etc. For some reason I never see a thread on those issues which is truly baffling considering how they would almost be slam dunks for the haters out there.

    I work everyday in programs that I know for a fact help small business grow and thrive in the contracting community. You are barking up the wrong tree here. They are beneficial and the contractors know that.

    Those issues have come up here a lot in the past. I guess Fox News has let up on the Benghazi scandal since there's been scarcely a mention of it on here lately.

    Trey Gowdy's a busy guy. After he gets through with Lois Lerner, a legit issue as well BTW, he's get on this Benghazi thing. And you better believe Joe Biden will use the rise in his 2016 bid.

    Ah yes. The IRS. Just when you think they couldn't be hated anymore. Another good one.
