Why should the U.S. government promote one business over another? Let them fight it out in the marketplace.
Let me cite you an example, let's say a company produces its's product offshore and yet is an American company that imports to the US and then takes advantage of the American tax loopholes provided to that company. Again this is only my personal opinion, but if a company seeks to promote the economy of the United States by employing Americans and building and selling it's product here then they should get the advantages of a tax code for that. In regulating commerce is the Govt. not promoting the General Welfare of this nation? That's not picking winners and losers, thats providing an atmosphere for domestic business to thrive. It's rather like this, if one want's an environment that is simply there for business to fight it out and let the marketplace decide,why have a constitution at all, for that matter why even have borders for a nation, if the marketplace is to be above the affairs of the nation. While I do respect your opinion, I am all for promoting American business because I tend to feel that in so doing we as a nation thrive.
