To effectively deal with a problem you FIRST have to ID the root cause of the problem. Then you attack the root problems.

The root problem of business fleeing our country is THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

The effective solutions that DIRECTLY ATTACKS the root problem BEGIN with:

- Abolish the unconstitutional federal minimum wage
- Abolish unconstitutional federal regulations
- Abolish unconstitutional federal union protection
- Abolish federal corporate taxes which is a hidden form of higher individual taxes

What, if you vote for someone for political office you’re going to go around and worship him and agree with everything he says and does? Sadness. Voting for a politician giving him power over you and your money is like a treaty - you trust but you VERIFY. Although I like Trump for many reasons, I’ve diasagreed with him about tariffs from day one

Trump plans on lowering business tax from 35% to 15%. Trump plans to get rid of a huge swatth of federal regulations. Few if any manufacturers pay Federal minimum wage which sits at $7.25. Abolishing it would have next to no impact on US industrialization and would be a waste of political energy.

Jim, I disagree on tariffs. Our Founders set them up to finance the government solely. If they could do it in those times, we should be able to do it today.

It works as a limiting factor on government sprawl too.

So while I think we utilize taxation to pay down the debt, moving to bare minimum taxes and tariffs should be the goal.

Jim, look at our nation. Has free (LOL) trade worked?

No. We tried the most rabid version we could and it fell flat on it’s face.
