President Barack Obama is giving up on some of the American manufacturing jobs that went to Mexico, telling an Indiana resident that many of those jobs are not coming back. During a town hall in Elkhart, Indiana, Obama was asked a question about manufacturing by a man who was once employed by Carrier Corporation in Indiana before the plant announced plans to move to Mexico.
“What we have to do is to make sure that folks are trained for the jobs that are coming in now because some of those jobs of the past are just not going to come back,” Obama said bluntly during the event broadcast on PBS.
Carrier announced in February that it would move 1,400 jobs to Mexico — even after receiving $5.1 million from the Obama administration in clean energy tax credits. Carrier later clarified in a statement that it will not claim the federal tax credit....

Great movie
Wanna bet?
The jobs WILL NOT come back, in Obama’s world.
But if we treat our businesses as OUR FRIENDS (i.e., Trump’s world), they sure as hell will come back.
The people running these companies sure as heck don’t enjoy having to go to Mexico, with targets on their back - and China is a great place to visit...but like any other country, it gets old pretty quick (particularly if you have to fly coach) - and you sure as heck better not getting into a business dispute there, because your flight out may not be for a very long time.
The only loose end that I worry about with Trump is how he’ll handle the labor unions here - they are one of the top reasons that companies have left, and something has to be done to keep them under control here - or Obama could be right, or at least partly right.
One of the ways you can tell Obama is really slinging the Bull... he starts using the term “folks”.

Is the same true for US golf tournaments?
Great movie! Falling Down. A must see.
Embrace the suck.
You can’t make this stuff up!
just two days after President Obama made a visit to Elkhart; touting it’s economic come-back from the Great Recession .CTS announced that 230 employees will be out of a job. according to a CTS press release ,jobs will move to existing operations in China, Taiwan, and Mexico.
And then the 38,000 jobs numbers on Friday! Man o man! The Trumpster in CA isn’t the only one with egg on their face You’d think someone would clue the poor guy in.
The jobs left the USA they can leave Mexico.
Obama is anti-American.
I guess Obama didn’t read the latest jobs report.
There are no jobs.
“Once a factory closes, it doesn’t come bad. It would cost a billion dollars a factory to re-set up shop again. That’s before they even start producing anything.”
BS. The factories left the USA they can leave Mexico.
Okie Doke Obama
Hey Barry, lower the corp. tax rate to 10%, and watch what happens.

Can you give them a better deal than Mexico can when they pay workers $2/hour?
I can see why this guy is president, he’s so damn smart. /s I think Ross Perot warned of this in the ‘90s.
Who cares, they will pay and new American manufacturers will spring up under Trump!
“Trump can’t help you - I already screwed that pooch and when I screw a pooch it stays screwed.”
So longs as they imports are heavily tarrifed then I’m good with that.
