AMERICA'S FUTURE

"Can the Future be Built in America?"--Business Week seem to indicate the answer is, "no." The U.S. has dropped to #2 behind Switzerland int eh global competitiveness rankings.

  • America is losing its high-tech lead.
  • If America can't keep industries, they are lost forever to other countries.
  • America no longer has a "base of suppliers, factory managers, and skilled technicians."
  • American industry faces one of the highest tax rates of all advanced countries (in spite of what you hear from liberal Democrat politicians). Other countries (and even places like Germany) have low tax policies and other financial incentives that encourage industry.
