LACONIA, N.H. (AP) - Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani told voters worried about job losses and outsourcing that burdensome taxes and regulations are to blame rather than corporate greed.
Speaking at a VFW hall, the former New York mayor disagreed with a woman who said she blames greedy CEOs for the outsourcing of jobs to other countries. Businesses have a right to make a profit, he said.
"I think outsourcing is a function of being anticompetitive," he said.
The solution, he said, is lifting some regulations on businesses and lowering the corporate tax rate.
