Would these be the same "job growth" Republicans that oversaw us exporting our jobs to India and China?

Not saying the Democrats are much better, if at all - but why should I believe the GOP is better? It's generally acknowleged that they are (for better or worse) more "pro-corporation. Given that, since a corporation acts more as a slave to the next quarter's bottom line than ever, cheaper job outsourcing is good for that bottom line.

I'm being sincere here - what will the GOP do to do the equivalent of diverting those dollars from the stockholders to new employees?

Your point is well taken DJPLONG ! While I am a very avid anti Obama, Pelosi guy, I am not a big party guy.

The one thing that has bothered me about the Tea Party movement has been the lack of answers. The new Republicans will need to come up with something definitive to answer the problems of the country.

Of course, from my point of view, the Health Care mess is at the top of the list, but we all know that will tie everyone up for some time. Not sure how much the government can do to create jobs other than insure that companies have whatever they need to want to create them IN THE USA.

Changing tax system could draw back jobs. Eliminate current system for simplified code.

Not an easy task to compete in labor related industries when you're competing with countries with no labor laws, no environmental laws and a work force that is consigned to living in abject poverty.

That being said, the government can do much in the way of tax breaks for companies that keep jobs here and additional tax breaks if they purchase their supplies and goods necessary for their business from companies that have done the same. All government contracts should be first directed to these companies that fulfill this business model.

Regulations on businesses have to be scaled back, with an eye on protecting our vital resources, but with the purpose of not adding years of litigation and astronomical costs to the creation and expansion of business.

All you have to do is notice how some states have enhanced their business climate at the expense of the states that have raised business taxes and enacted onerous business regulations to see the value of creating an environment of business growth on a massive scale.
