1. If you have capital investment, and a good regulatory environment, you're going to be able to see lots of comparable jobs when people are downsizing. But when you have a bad economy that is shrinking, then you do in fact just get the crappy jobs.
2. If you want to pay the people of tomorrow, then you need to create goods and products that can create the money supply. Otherwise, you're just printing money which will render their pensions useless during hyperinflation. Its happened before. You can't print money into a prosperous economy.
3. If someone wants to work hard and become ultra-wealthy.....Why should you dis-incentivize them from doing that? The more you tax someone, the less motivation they are going to have to work hard and become rich. That creates huge problems, as many of the wealthiest also (tend to) contribute a lot to the economy.
4. You prove you don't understand why jobs are being shipped overseas. Yes, they are cheaper over there, but why are they cheaper overseas? If the simple answer was wages, then why did the jobs exist here at all in the first place? Would you like the real reason as to why jobs go overseas? Its not wages. Its regulations and overhead. Right now, it costs an average manufacturer about $15,000 USD in compliance costs per worker per year. If your job has 100 factory workers, then that means you have about $1.5 million USD in compliance costs every year you are here. That forces companies to significantly evaluate where they do business. This is why a country like South Korea is doing so well: Despite having a very modern economy, they are continuing to outpace virtually everyone else. Why? Ease of business & tax code. South Korea is one of the easiest in the world. It makes for more businesses and better ones too.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
