It seems clearer to me now than a few months ago that the country needs to find ways to bring back jobs that were outsourced to Asia and other areas. At the same time the powers in Washington need to offer tax incentives to all businesses for the hiring of new workers.
Trade-offs are necessary to get more tax revenue and a much higher efficiency is needed in many federal agencies and programs, including the IRS, Defense, Social Security and Medicare. The graft, corruption and fraud must be reduced if not eliminated.
