Why are so many other countries creating more jobs than the US?? [View all]

I heard on MSNBC this morning that Germany, and even Britain, were creating more jobs than the US? They wondered, "Why is that?"

In my opinion, there is a very simple explanation. We have shipped all our jobs overseas. It is not because American taxes were too high. It is because these companies did not want to pay any taxes at all. They had an intense dislike for their government unless their government could get them a tax cut so they could maximize their profits. Low wages and low taxes or no taxes was the capitalist dream. That is where our jobs went and that is why we are not creating jobs as fast as some other countries.
