The job crisis in the USA is getting national attention, with the help of the Occupy Wall Street movement. At the same time, many people are still wondering what's the real problem underneath the job crisis? The short answer is -- there is no short answer. On the other hand, a summary of the major factors include:

  1. Economy: The economy in the USA is pretty mature. After reaching the mountaintop you normally have to go down the mountain to climb back to the top.
  2. Reckless capitalism: As the saying goes, "just because you CAN do something doesn't make it a good idea." Need I say more?
  3. Taxes: Taxes are way to high. Why? The tax code factors in greed, corruption and tax evasion. Basically, the tax system accounts for reckless capitalism.
  4. Democracy: It always has and always will cost more to operate in a democratic society. Deal with it.
  5. Who's the Boss?: Not the tv sitcom but in the real world. Who's the boss - government or the private sector? Everyone loves to hate giving government power, which would mean the power is in the private sector's hands. Now look at the results and judge for yourself.

Of course, there is light at the end of every tunnel, so just hang on for little while longer. In the mean time, moving to China is always an option; China is growing and hiring. let's hope China is as eager to employ Americans as we are eager to open our doors to so many other Countries. Needless to say, but the real problem underneath the USA job crisis involves many factors and it's going to take a hard push (maybe shove) to move matters along. Money mouth

Yep you heard right, if you want a job it seems like you might need to move to someplace in China like say Shanghai. No joke, many Americans who have been out of work for long periods of time and even new graduates are taking their act abroad to places like China. Talk about reversal of fortune. Ok. but wait if China is such a popular job creation hub then why are so many China natives rushing to the US? Hummh that's a good question, we might have to call in the Harvard grads for that one. In their absence, we will give it a go. Here's a thought, maybe China natives are coming to the US to go the finest schools in the world, than take that knowledge back to China? There's a thought huh.

So what is the US doing to combat lost intellectual capital to China and the growing number of jobs displaced to China?. Uh oh, we might have to call in the Washington Big Wigs for that one. In their absence, we will give that one a stab too. Hummh, how about hoping and wishing that corporate power brokers choose country over profitability? Good luck with that hope and wish strategy; it hasn't proven effective yet, which would explain why corporations such as Sony and Disney would rather set up show in Japan and China than in the US even though these are US based companies and both amassed their wealth in the US. So maybe that's why Americans that want jobs are seriously looking at China since the US seems unable or unwilling to stop the flow of American companies setting up shop overseas. Lessons on speaking Chinese anyone?
