Well excuse me, that doesn’t change the point that nobody is standing up for America anymore.

Everyone, in both political parties, is completely sold out to China. China meanwhile keeps on gobbling up, what used to be America’s factories.

America needs to bring back jobs to America, and stop subsidizing China.

China is now exporting more than America exports. And is rapidly growing.

GOP stand up for American workers.

You won a majority. Use it. Bring back American jobs.

Bring back American jobs.
The first and easiest step should be to bring back American profits. Apple, and other corporations, have big bucks that they earned overseas but which would be heavily taxed if brought home. So there they sit - or, more likely, there they get invested. Immediately pass a law making dividends tax deductible against the corporate income tax.

Then Apple and the rest would bring that money home, and pay it out in dividends. Which would go into investment and consumption - and individual income taxes, BTW - here. Which would improve the business climate here.

That would be a simple pro-American change in American law, to which no foreigner would have a legitimate complaint, but which would help Americans here. Whether they invest in America or whether they work for someone else who invests in America. And frankly, any worker needs to save for their children’s future (e.g., college) and for his own retirement - so everyone needs to invest, and to live off the fruits of those investments after retirement.
