If you're into politics, you should be able to easily recognize Annoying Orange's current stances as right-wing.

And our jobs should not be outsourced? There's hardly any manufacturing done in the U.S. anymore.

both are accurate statements. what is your solution to fix it?

I do disagree with Annoying Orange on numerous things, especially anything involving the segregation of any race, but otherwise he's better than Bush or Clinton.
On what grounds? Clinton's private mail server debacle is worse than a guy who makes period jokes at female reporters and wants to be the leader of the free world?

Close loopholes for taxing outsourcing companies and entiice working domestically.

there's not much reason to put your business in the US where you have to pay your workers more, pay high corporate taxes, pay your own higher taxes, etc

If you're suggesting citizens and businesses in the US are taxed highly compared to other countries, then go re-evaluate your facts. There is, infact, a reason why this country is/was considered a great place to run a business.

Mmm, I don't think the U.S. has very high tax rates especially after deductions.

i was referring to a future in the sanders administration

O'bummer will enact martial law and force a 3rd term

Quote from: Wikipedia
At 35%, the United States has the highest nominal top corporate tax rate in any of the world's developed economies.


Nominal tax rate, irrespective of all the ways corporations pay less. (McDonalds paid the most out of any corporation in the US, and it was around 31% of their earnings).

Don't get me wrong, corporate tax rates in the US are very steep, but people find ways to pay much less.

both are accurate statements. what is your solution to fix it?
Well look at the countries were labor is outsourced too. Mexico has wage slavery and low manufacturing standards plus massive government incompetence and corruption which for a company the end result is low risk business and cheap labor.

China on the other hand has abysmal wages, it's a pretty authorize state with a huge manufacturing industry. Which is also funny because many conservatives are quick to bash Bernie because he is a socialist, yet these corporations they defend produce their goods with "communist" labor in China.

If neither country was the way it was, those plants would be in some other country.
