Oh...Then you would support the "rich guy" taking his business and going over seas? It will then be a paradise for the middle and lower class.
If his market is overseas and he wants to leave... yea but be sure to pay back all the billions of $$$ in tax breaks and incentives the b@stard took from OUR TAX DOLLARS before he leaves.
For those Americans who want to operate here in the usa... most businesses, glad you are here.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: THURSDAY, AUG. 23, 2012 State and Local Governments Employ 16.4 Million Full-Time Equivalent Employees in 2011, Census Bureau Reports
In March 2011, there were 16.4 million full-time equivalent employees working in state and local governments in the U.S., down 1.4 percent from 2010. According to estimates released today by the U.S. Census Bureau, the majority of these employees (8.9 million) worked in education, followed by those working in hospitals (964,381), police protection (923,951) and corrections (717,940).
These estimates come from the 2011 Annual Survey of Public Employment & Payroll. The survey shows totals for state and local government full-time and part-time employment and details employment by government function at the national and state level. To arrive at the full-time equivalent employee calculation, the number of full-time employees is added to the number of hours worked by part-time employees divided by the standard number of hours for a full-time employee. Local Government Employment
Local governments — which include counties, cities, townships, special districts and school districts — accounted for 12.0 million full-time equivalent employees in 2011, down 204,781 in full-time equivalent employees from 2010. Part-time state and local government employees numbered 4.9 million in 2011, an increase of 22,770 from 2010. Education accounted for the largest percentage of local government employment in the nation, with 7.0 million full-time equivalent employees (58.7 percent).
Between March 2010 and March 2011, most states saw decreases or no statistically significant change in local government full-time equivalent employees. Arizona showed the biggest percentage decline (7.0 percent) from 2010. Other states showing a decline of at least 4.0 percent were Indiana (6.1 percent), Michigan (5.9 percent), New Jersey (4.9 percent) and New York (4.2 percent).
Arkansas saw the largest increase in local government full-time equivalent employees (13.3 percent) from 2010 to 2011. Other states showing an increase of at least 4.0 percent were Louisiana (4.5 percent), Maine (5.3 percent), Utah (4.5 percent) and Wyoming (5.6 percent).
The number of local government part-time employees in the U.S. increased from March 2010 to March 2011, with an overall gain of 10,021 employees. Mississippi had the largest gain in local part-time employment (up 14.7 percent), while Maine had the largest percentage decline of part-time employment (down 16.1 percent) from March 2010 to March 2011. State Government Employment
State governments employed 4.4 million full-time equivalent employees in 2011, down 0.4 percent from 2010. Education accounted for the largest percentage of state government employment in the nation, with 1.8 million full-time equivalent employees (42.4 percent).
Half of the 50 state governments saw decreases in full-time equivalent employment between 2010 and 2011, with Louisiana leading with a 4.9 percent decline. Following Louisiana were Massachusetts (3.5 percent), New Jersey (3.4 percent), Oklahoma (3.1 percent) and New York (3.0 percent).
North Carolina saw the largest percent increase in full-time equivalent employees (5.4 percent), adding 7,955 to its workforce. Following North Carolina in increased full-time equivalent employment were Utah (4.3 percent), Tennessee (4.0 percent), Arizona (3.0 percent) and North Dakota (2.5 percent).
Part-time state government employees in the U.S. increased 0.8 percent to 1.5 million full-time equivalent employees. Utah showed the largest percentage increase, up 18.0 percent from 2010. Following Utah were Montana (10.4 percent), Indiana (9.6 percent), Arkansas (7.6 percent) and Arizona (6.4 percent).

Adults 244,000,000
10% of all adults have government jobs.
Keep in mind these number only count jobs classified as government jobs.
All jobs paid for by tax dollars are technically government jobs.
Schools, teachers, maintenance and support staff are all government jobs.
If you take just the federal budget of 6.2 trillion, divide it by, let's say an average salary of $100,000, that would come out to around 62 million jobs paid for out of federal taxes alone.
That would bring the number of $100,000 federal job equivalents to 62 million.
There aren't actually 62 million jobs, because 1.1 trillion is for pensions for former employees.
Next we have total 50 state expenditures coming in at $1,959,124,000,000

Stop using those companies you feel are ripping off the poor and middle class. I haven't used a bank in years and will only use credit unions.
Good for you. That has nothing to do with companies and the wealthy not paying their taxes.

As I have said before the tax code is unfair and needs to be changed but the halfwits in Congress won't do it because it might cost them re-election votes. Solution is term limits and they won't do that either.
no straw for the bricks unless the government tells them to dole it out....it's very well controlled....those 'rich' you speak of are 'handlers' by Box's Holy Government....
remember the virtual value must fit with in the world banking system to keep the rats running around the maze doing sh!t...all under the guise of community ant ball......
Box thinks he found an enemy when in fact Box supports a system that whitewashes, so that Box's emperors clothes look proper and Box can vote with a clear conscience
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Now that we have figures for the full four years of Obama’s first term, a surprising fact emerges: The economy added more jobs during four years under Obama than it did in the entire eight years under Bush.
By the time of Obama’s second inaugural in January, the economy had added a net total of 1,208,000 jobs since he was first sworn in four years earlier, according to current figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That beats George W. Bush’s eight-year total of 1,083,000.
And so far, Obama is extending his lead over Bush. Counting jobs added in February, his total now stands at a net gain of over 1.5 million jobs.
