Tax increases tend to impact those people whose capital can't move (the middle class and to a lesser extent, the poor, who don't pay much in the way of taxes). That means that there is less domestic investment since capital is fluid. If unions and local measures are unfavorable, companies build factories outside the US, the jobs and taxes migrate. It's a fact of life, and obama isn't a potentate, much to his sorrow. <br /><br />The best way to grow the US economy is to make it a great place to invest, to build, to work, with a stable and predictable set of laws so businesses know what to expect. The Democrats have done the opposite and wonder why things aren't moving.
