The carrier deal is not crony capitalism
She is right, and presumably the Trump program for keeping jobs here is going to be based on allowing profits overseas to be repatriated, cutting corporate rates, and eliminating laws and regulations. That should work quite well. Trump can’t control whether individual states give subsidies, but they shouldn’t.
No. I’m the opposite of a NWO, globalist, etc. etc.
The USA was made great by rule of law, etc. Companies can plan their road to profitability in the United States without fear of prejudice or interference. Same with individual people.
Decisions affecting individual companies or factories are antithetical to what made America great.
BTW, I’m a very big fan of Trump. I’m still 100% in.
If i’m not mistaken Trump said he would easing regulations and overhauling the corporate tax code. This is what made the company say
>> But know that fundamentally, political intrusion using a stick or carrot to bribe or force one individual business to do what politicians insist, versus establishing policy incentivizing our ENTIRE ethical economic engine to roar back to life, isn’t the answer. <<
Looks like it may be time to ban Gov. Palin from FR. She obviously isn’t displaying proper obeisance to the Trump Program.
Obviously she’s been told she won’t get a position. Who can blame her for being pissed. Never trump scum like Chau and Haley waltz into high level cabinet jobs (after praying that trump would lose) while she doesn’t even get an intereview.
Here’s the thing.....
The business was on it’s way out, leaving many people unemployed. It was not so much giving some business an advantage over another - it was a last ditch effort to get a company to stay.
If the taxes were fair to all businesses, and the regulations were not causing them to flee, such a deal as this would not have even be required. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Not enough time to wait for the laws to change to keep this company. Once the laws are friendly toward business, this will no longer be needed.
Republicans don’t oppose crony capitalism; conservatives do. Trump is not a conservative, and Palin sold out her principles by backing Trump over Cruz - so I don’t care what she has to say anymore. I’m done with her as well as with every other fool who jumped on the phony progressive-populist-agrarian-nationalist bandwagon.
Palin getting toasted on this thread same subject.

The debate of ideas goes on. It’s called “freedom of speech”.
Technically, Sarah Palin is right. In a perfect world, every company should get exactly the same treatment, there shouldn’t be any special tax deals for just one company.
But, it’s an imperfect world, and right now Trump is still, legally, just an ordinary citizen with few legislative powers. That’ll change on Jan. 20th, when he gets some tools that can change the situation for ALL companies – like reforming the inefficient tax code and rolling back oppressive regulations, which cost companies money.
But for now, he did what he could. Can’t do it this way for every company, obviously.
Note to Sarah....I love you dearly but to get America working again we must remember the old saying that “the business of government is business”.
Reducing the corporate tax is not crony capitalism. Corporations don’t pay taxes anyway; their consumers do.
Very true Sarah but he is a private citizen
