Poll: Millions of Americans Who Need Jobs Want Congress to Get to Bottom of This Benghazi Thing First

[Crashed~N2~Me 970]

How 'bout repatriate foreign profits by providing a 1 time double down tax credit translating to 2/3 kept and 1/3 spent - for every new job created in 2014, expensed on business development (excluding stock buy back, mergers and acquisitions) & dividend to shareholder (with a formula requiring / validating dividend is capped at - equal to first two)......

I know this would make our very simple to understand tax code a bit complicated ...but I am sure CPAs wouldn't mind and a few might even postpone committing suicide until 2016 returns requiring amendment... start to pile up....?

ETA: I'm still working on the 2/3 1/3 ratio....seems the numbers don't work out...

I was chatting on another site and heard this brilliant idea.

Just raise the pay by to $25 and hour and everyone would be able to live decently with great insurance. Yes prices go up some but even if a cup of coffee costs 5 dollars no one has to buy that coffee unless they want to.

I didn't try to argue much but did ask about employers maybe not hiring or hiring less people and here is the reply.

Just make laws that make companies hire them and what wages. That way there can be full employment.

Luckytxn, the lack of economic literacy of many folks is astounding.

California Congress critter Barbara Lee supports $26.00 per hr minimum wage -- as an example.

I hope that fails. Texas has enough people moving into our state.
