Texas Workforce Commission chairman Tom Pauken told business executives at Lee College that the tax system punishes investment and rewards debt, shrinking the U.S. manufacturing base by a third over a decade. He urged renewed emphasis on skilled trades and vocational education to reclaim jobs, and warned Congress to enact growth-friendly tax legislation to get Americans back to work.
