Vote for David Perdue


Michelle Nunn’s ad criticizing David Perdue for his experience in off-shoring jobs should backfire on her.
Companies have been forced to flee the U.S. in order to stay in business. Companies have always been free to move anywhere and after they perfected their manufacturing processes it became possible to reduce their costs by 50% by moving out of the U.S. to low cost countries.
Federal government actions are responsible for the off-shoring binge beginning with NAFTA and the elimination of tariffs that used to be used to equalize costs and maintain strategic industry capabilities for defense and patent concerns.
Unnecessary federal regulations, the promise of higher energy costs, the continued high 35% corporate tax rate and union abuse contributed to the flight. Democrats like unnecessary regulations, high energy costs, high tax rates and unions.
Emerging countries were quick to give these companies free land use, tax holidays and cash as additional incentives.
David Perdue’s experience in negotiating off-shoring projects gave him rare knowledge of all the pieces needed to craft new legislation to enable the cost gap to close and jobs to return.  This will require lowering the corporate tax especially for manufacturing, repealing unnecessary regulations to ensure lower energy costs and repealing job-killing laws like Obamacare. Democrats won’t want to do any of that.
