“The word is out”
I haven’t heard that news as yet.
I think future circumstances would correspond to the example I gave.
“the same lower taxes and less regulation”
We are on the same page.
I don’t know how many companies can be lured back to the US, but I think the new business environment that Trump promises to provide will keep most
companies from leaving.
“Your math is a bit oversimplistic.”
You are obviously way more into it than I.
But I think you’ll agree that the oversimplistic illustration I provided would give the accounting department of most companies food for thought.
Not meant as a criticism, I just wanted to go further and see if some more realistic assumptions led to the same conclusion, and they do so long as the threatened tariff were passed and a reduction in corporate tax rates occurred. My math was simplistic too, but I think the notion that Carrier stayed in Indiana because of $7 million in tax breaks is ludicrous. It’s not crony capitalism; it’s a gamble that Trump will come through as promised.
“Shipping or transportation involved?”
But of course!! This cost would provide further motivation to keep your operation in the US.
“it’s a gamble that Trump will come through as promised.”
We’re all holding our breath and hopin’, partner!
They ignore all the “green” companies which went belly up after receiving $million$ in federal funds.
Now, that was “crony capitalism”, which isn’t captitalism at all.
Why isn’t Obama being criticized by the leftist media for these demonstrated examples of fake-capitalism?
“lower tax rates do not apply to income from foreign source products.”
This would probably work if it is important to avoid tariffs.
