    Look, none of us knows what Trump said to Carrier. But somewhere in the conversation I'm willing to wager the point was made to Carrier's parent company that the White House has a lot of influence in seeing that the $10 billion UT won in federal contracts this year (or whatever the actual number is) can get cut to $2 billion next year without much difficulty.

    Carrier employees in Mexico will make an average of $3 per hour, $6 if you combine salary and benefits. ..
    The jobs saved in Indiana>1,000 Carrier Jobs ... on a plan to retain 1,069 jobs with an average wage of $30.91 per hour, ...
    10 fukkin Mexicans make as much as one American..

    The only way to stop this shit is tariffs.
    or cut the cost of living in the US 1000%

    Yeah, let's look at that. Company conned Obama into investing capital and moved overseas anyway.
    You'd think we would've learned from that. Instead your boy makes a deal, which Pence should've
    done anyway, gives the company tax breaks and is sending jobs to Mexico anyway. WTF?

    What the fukk does Obama's fukk ups have to do with Trump's?

    Just like Bush's fukk ups had to do with Obama's I guess..

    I wish I had a job where I could fukk up as much as I wanted. Outdoing my predecessor in the process. With half of America cheering me on while I bury the country into oblivion, while getting richer by the second.

    The American public is fukkin beyond stupid.
    In fact there needs to be a new word added the the English language describing this level of stupidity......

    Our country's biggest problem is this. We get so wrapped up in our "toe the line" war - where we'd rather blame the other party than take responsibility on our own side - while politicians just sit back and love it.

    We got what we deserved with W. and Obama. We're going to get what we deserve with Trump, who will make those two look like altruistic geniuses. Why? Because we take the lazy way out. We're apathetic, deflective, and we don't hold ourselves personally accountable. If you want proof, just look at the degenerate losers around here who are suddenly all political experts. Yet when asked to answer to their own convictions, Democrats and Republicans alike will play this bullshit shell game. It's sad, pathetic, and most importantly, UN-AMERICAN.

    Awful to see what has become of this country's citizens. But again, we get what we deserve now.

    In other words, there is no way to stop this shit...and by this shit, we mean CAPITALISM. Capitalism means the business can choose where to do business. Trump Republicans now hate free market capitalism.

    The answer is that we instead have more of the jobs of tomorrow. You can't fight change forever. I know it's difficult, but the jobs of 20, 40, 60 years are going to phase out. That's how it works. Trying to rig the system to keep them to pander to people who don't want to change....is pathetic and it's Trump's #1 MO.

    The bottom line is that Trump as his minions don't believe in free market capitalism. An essential part of free market capitalism is being able to choose where you do business, who you hire and where you hire them. Trump's strongarm attempts to not allow companies to make these choices is anti-capitalism.

    This is where the cost of living will need to be reduced 1000% comes in.......

    However since Americans are labeled the largest consumers of the world.

    Somethings gotta give..


    I haven't figured it out yet but I can tell you now.
    It definitely is not going to be a positive outcome......

    The National Weather Service issued a winter-storm warning until 6 p.m. Saturday local time, with heavy, flooding rainfall across the chain of Pacific islands and up to 30 inches of snow on the peaks of the Big Island.

    Not the lottery if you actually do research and such...yes I know they manipulate it and control it. You have to study how they do it and be on the right side with them, thus you make money. Most Americans are too lazy to figure out how to do that

    It's not even so much that he wants to change the policy. He will have the right to do that. At the appropriate time in the appropriate way. But doing it ad hoc before he takes office, before having a SoS, without notifying the administration or state department...just irresponsible. The current president has given him all sorts of respect - how about giving respect back by not causing diplomatic incidents through ignoring decades-long policies, before taking office. Is that really too much to ask?
