Liberalism has pushed the risk/adjusted cost of employing Americans so high that even a company like Apple cannot consider hiring Americans for new manufacturing jobs:
Taiwan's Economic Daily News reports Foxconn is in the midst of hiring 100K workers to help ramp iPhone 6.

I think this question need to be asked: Are you on the right happy what Geo W. Bush did to this country during his 8 year fiasco? On must remember that we are STILL paying for his major mistakes. Bush let Wall Street go all on their own, how did that work out? What were the unemployment numbers during Georgy's tenure? How was our budget doing at that time? And by-god who is paying for those 2 wars? See, you guys from the right ALWAYS tend forget these things when you bash Obama, you see when there is a fire there HAS to be smoke. And that LARGE smoke cloud came fro one of you very own, and it's going to take more than 8 years from ANY president from any party to fix this huge mess. Especially when one party will not lend a helping hand to help to fix these major problems. Their main concern is to see that Obama fails. George W left us a NASTY god-awful mess, so if you want some misguided actions on a "major scale" look no further than what George W. Bush and his buddies left us. A historical tsunami of crap that will take 30 or more years to get out of! There is ALWAYS a starting line and this HUGE mess that we are still digging out of started with a REPUBLICAN president.

The facts are the entire country has been garbage ever since obama became president and started attacking companies and putting regulations on all small businesses. Jobs have been garbage because of it, and thats a fact no matter how you try to spin it. After 6 years we are still discussing part time jobs and low wage jobs, and we are approaching 18 trillion in debt .... this is one of the worst presidential terms I have ever been alive to see.

ROFLMAO. Take away the tax cuts for corporations exporting jobs and you take away an incentive to do so. FYI 35% plus 25% is the combined corporate tax rates of the US and China. I don't see a billionaire whining about 35% wanting to pay 60%
?
Apple manufactures in China because the labor is dirt cheap.
If only we were more like the Taiwanese and the Chinese and the Indians and the Bangladeshis .It's the Republican dream.

You must live in a nonsense universe. Because the republican house has not passed any liberal or even moderate policies in the last 6 years and you need that vote for it to become law.
So if we want to pretend that Obama is a liberal, or go further and pretend that the crazy right wing house has approved "liberalism" for the past 6 years, or that the senate republicans have somehow forgotten to filibuster every single thing Obama has tried to do, or that any of that "liberalism" is law now, then we might as well talk about unicorns and fairies.
