1. STOP JOB LOSS: I say NO to U.S. companies who want to relocate jobs from the U.S.

2. BRING JOBS BACK:  I will work to reverse job loss by companies who have relocated overseas and either create incentives that will encourage them to re-locate back to the U.S or find ways to create new start-ups to counter the loss in any particular sector.

3. CREATE JOBS:   I support providing advantages for start-up companies and transitioning businesses by leveraging unemployment to create employment.  My idea in doing this is the yin and yan of creating jobs.

4. CREATE JOB INCENTIVES: Provide incentives for companies to hire, retain, and have a seniority mixed workforce.

5. CREATE A DIFFERENT BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT where the creation and maintaining of jobs is what drives the market rather than the loss of them.

Jobs are key to the American economy. Labor is the source of capital for ordinary Americans.  When people are working, life is good. However, jobs are being lost because they are being shipped overseas. Companies seek cheap foreign labor and market their products in the U.S. at about the same price.....this is not competition, it's maximizing profits at the expense of U.S. labor.  

On Black Monday alone, over 71,000 jobs were lost in one day. Add that to the 2008 end of year loss of over 2 million jobs. Now take into account the last 20 years that companies in this country have been exporting jobs. Our nation cannot afford this loss of industry at such rates and also have a strong economy.
