Big deal.

I have it on good authority from Ben Shapiro, Kevin Williamson, and a host of other cucks that actually building things in the United States is a failed, outmoded 19th century business model.

About ten years ago I attended a series of talks in Shanghai sponsored by my graduate school. The event tied in with a business trip I already had planned. I remember two specific things I learned which surprised me. One, China was already the single largest market for Mercedes Benz automobiles. And two, the very best net savings (or enhanced profit if they could charge the same price) an American manufacturer would have by moving their manufacturing to China was 25%. Maximum. Usually significantly less.

This was before Obama came into office and all his added regulatory, tax, and cost burdens may have increased that figure. But the bottom line is China is an increasingly expensive place to operate. Add in the costs of incessant corruption, poor quality control, long transport times, west coast port issues, etc. and even without the expected sea changes Trump is promising a lot of American businesses would be considering moving production back home or elsewhere offshore.

There are many hidden costs when you have a supply chain stretched halfway around the world. Not to mention the barrier it presents in fact moving industries where innovation and responsiveness are important.

Meanwhile CMM has the head of the Carrier union on complaining that Trump lied about the numbers. He admitted yesterday he voted for Clinton and said Trump “lied his ass off”. But he is a star now!

Just when Americans are probably feeling more generous to the trade unions, this ****er reminds us that half the problem with the US losing jobs is the greedy and corrupt unions.

I would love to see more Winning...it would be funny to read someday: 'Mattel bringing Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Barbie back to US'.

I wonder where they'll build the plant?
