I think he may just be a little confused, as are a whole lot of other people recently, about our mission on FR.

Securing the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity!

I don’t know if you’ve got the whole picture there.

I think Trump is for restoring America’s position in the world. Part of what he is saying is that there was a whole (huge) section of the GOP who has been very busy for the entire last generation, shipping what used to be the best manufacturing base on the planet, to China.

Now it is still the best manufacturing base in the world, but now it is CHINESE.

No Americans have jobs in this new environment. China however is doing great.

I just flew back to the USA today, on a jet full of Chinese. They are doing quite well now, thank you.

The thing is, America not so much. That, in my view is where Donald Trump should (needs to) expend political capital right now. Bringing back JOBS.

To America.

And also, building the wall.

It is only after those two things have been accomplished, that we want to nuke Obamacare.

Not before those two things are done. In my view.

Return America’s manufacturing capabilities, and America’s manufacturing jobs, first.

First.

Don’t tear up Obamacare, until later.

Just my view.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perfect! I love the way he puts the effective date at the end of the year. Plenty of time to hash out a true health insurance bill. Across state lines, huge MSA’s, tort reform, and not much else.

My House Freedom Caucus member Congressman will be getting a phone call from me tomorrow am.

Are you really so stupid as to imagine that Obamacare hasn’t driven up the cost of manufacturing in America?

Or have your Commerades ordered you to float that Trojan union talking point?

Jim,
I’d also wonder if a little respect for other people’s viewpoints could be added as well. The writer in post number four stated his view as succinctly as congressman Brooks did. I would have been curious to hear his reasoning for that view.

But the hostile commie baiting shuts him down. Don’t we have enough echo chambers?

For crying out loud.

You are actually trying to blame OBAMACARE for outsourcing?

Nope.

Nope.

Nope.

Outsourcing has been going on for over one entire generation. Everyone has been outsourcing, forever.

Both parties.

Donald Trump is the first person ANYWHERE, in the last entire generation, who is saying it is time to make America great again, and bring back jobs right here.

He is the first guy.

Anywhere.

To say that.

To America.

There's several ways to stimulate job- and industry-growth; the best would be to remove things that impede it, namely: the onerous regulations that have accumulated in the past 50 years.

Another one, and this would take some time, would be to fix the patent and copyright problem -- there's a lot of companies out there sitting on patents and doing nothing to develop them, moreover the system is optimized against small businesses and individuals. The way to fix this problem is to acknowledge the Constitution as supreme law. In particular, this portion from Article 1, Section 8:

To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;
Notice that Congress is not empowered to secure these exclusive rights (patent and copyright) to anyone but the inventors and authors -- this means that companies cannot legally hold patent or copyright.

Void all the patents that are held by companies and you'll see a big boom in businesses of all sizes trying to capitalize on the ideas therein.

I think we should go for the whole enchilada as quickly as is humanly possible. Ryan and McTurtle, et al, need to get the hell out of the way! The Trump Train is highballing through!!

The Bill I've been calling for forever:

“Effective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and all laws passed after January 1 19000 are repealed , and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act(S)) had not been enacted,” the bill states. Repeal 16th and 17th amendments too.

Most laws and regulations are unconstitutional just more government , more bad trade deals, more 3rd world immigrants and more Muslim refugees .Enough restore America to the state when It was becoming great again.

Obamacare is like a Hydra. The longer it is allowed to continue, the more entangled in the structure of government it becomes. Thus, the more difficult it will be to eradicate in the future.

Correctomundo. It’d soon be an entrenched entitlement requiring an act of God or national bankruptcy to end it.
