I don’t agree with this at all. Reduce taxes and millions of regulations and companies will stay in the US voluntarily. Federal coercion is not needed or good.

Tax breaks in many cases won't make up for the labor arbitrage. We should also include regulatory relief (EPA, OSHA).

What we have now is a race to the bottom, where the first competitor to offshore gets a huge advantage over its rivals, giving all of them tax, regulatory & labor incentives to move as much manufacturing out of the US as possible.

I do and glad he is doing it. It’s about dam time!

How is it fair we pay tariffs to China and they do not pay tariffs to us?

How is it fair China can manipulate their currency if we are selling too much and we cannot?

That’s what you call rigged! If China is going to charge tariffs, then we should do the same thing back. It will force China to lower or eliminate their tariffs with us all together.

I don’t understand why this is so difficult for some Freepers to understand?

True free market is what you see between the States. Everyone needs to be playing by the same rules? If not, then you are just playing a rigged poker game you can never win.
