I think you got it in a nutshell there, Ron. "They" are sick of us. Hell!
I'm sick of us.
At least when it comes to all these layers of complex Crap. Part of me just
wants to earn a bunch of money and then get the hell out. Namely, New
Zealand. I mean, while I'm dreaming here, why not. But there are getting to
be fewer places to run to, to escape the overly complex stuff that no one
will give you a good reason for. By the way, don't ever ask the tax
collector what the money is used for. They go from 0 to 80 on the anger
chart in a snap.
I don't pretend to understand the ebbs and tides of international policy,
taxes or any of the "rules from on high". I like to have a theory out lined
in my head so at least I understand they're actions sometimes. But what
Ron said reminds me of a quote "Diplomacy is the ability to say,"Nice
doggie" until you can find a big enough rock"
American businesses that can, are moving off shore.
We'd be all over Mexico if they were more stable. We sort of are, but not
like the East.
My partners and I can't survive in the business we started 4 years
ago,(cause its all going to Canada! #@%!!) so instead of throwing in the
towel, we are changing the industry we are in.
Create a product, get it made over seas, sell it here. Make the big bucks.
I just love keeping it simple.
As for America becoming a Service provider, not a good idea.
I'd write more but I want to stop this and go paw all the pictures of
Burning Man from this year which I didn't get to go to. I am so pissed
about that.
I swear! Next year for sure!
Regina
