You should start your post with I think, instead you post as if you know.

Well,

I do not want to do that simply because the peasants on this forum living up Norf on their shitty pension will crack the shits. But I digress.

Hey mate, it's like this innit.

It does not Matter what " The Donald " achieves, one will always read criticism from his Haters and detractors. It the way the Political game plays out.

It is exactly the same as " The General " doing great things for Thailand. The Farang shit stains living here will always decry any positive achievements made and simply cry down his efforts.

Their catch cry is this.... " It's not a Democracy so anything gained is worthless."

Myself simply says this,

Fuk the Political Farang Nut cases. Get a fookin life, STFU and go look at some of the awesome sexy bitches that are getting around the place.

That what I'm doing in 5 minutes.

The Septic skeptics are guna spew a river when Donald gets another 4 year term.

All the smart Seppos will love it.

Well that's Carrier with a bloody nose then.

In addition to Carrier, United Technologies makes Pratt & Whitney jet engines and Otis elevators. It employs about 200,000 people, about one-third of them in the U.S.

In other words you have no fucking clue about the subject under discussion, you have no fucking clue about economics and your solution to your stupidity is to go whoring?

Tosser.

Carrier Getting $7 Million in Tax Breaks for Trump ?Jobs? Deal - The Daily Beast

Carrier Corp.’s parent company, United Technologies Corp., will receive $7 million in tax breaks from the state of Indiana over a period of 10 years, according to a report. The deal, which was negotiated and championed by President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence, is contingent upon Carrier keeping 1,000 jobs in the U.S. Trump and Pence are expected to speak on the agreement later Thursday. Trump has been criticized from across the political spectrum for intervening, with many accusing the president-elect of employing cronyist tactics to give special treatment to certain private companies and industries. Additionally, as Bloomberg noted, even though Trump claims this as a jobs victory, Carrier will still move 1,300 jobs to Mexico.

He was about like tits on a boar hog...I've also said here @TD, on several threads, that he's a good little step-in-fetch-it.

I used to listen to him on the radio in the mid to late 1990s before he went to Congress. Yeah his 'start' was as a talk radio show host and an attorney. He's originally from the city where I live now and he graduated from high school here in 1977. So he's roughly the same age as I am.

Personally, I don't care what tax breaks are needed as long as companies remain in the US. Trump is not stupid and the accounting sheet will always favor money being kept in the US.

"Companies remain in the US".... yeah well two thirds of the company's workforce are overseas.

This deal is nothing but a headline getter.

However, Trump has promised to penalise companies that manufacture goods in cheap overseas markets and bring them back to the US to sell.

He has a voter mandate, let's see him do it.

If he opts to subsidise them instead, that sort of defeats the object, and it will go down like a lead balloon with US trading partners.

Welcome back Terry ... all out of ammo to green you at the moment.

Cheers mate!

Seems like a band aid approach to me.

Kool-aid for the lemmings.

Oh wait...about those "1000 jobs," it's more like 800.

Trump didn?t save as many Carrier jobs as he claimed | WTMA-AM

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) – President-elect Donald Trump said Carrier is “keeping 1,100 people” in jobs that won’t be shifted to Mexico from a factory in Indianapolis.

The real number is 800.

To get the higher number, Carrier and Trump are counting 300 jobs that weren’t at risk of being shipped to Mexico.

Carrier confirmed to CNNMoney on Friday that it never planned to move 300 administrative and engineering positions. Those jobs are at a different Indianapolis location, separate from the plant with the 1,400 factory worker jobs that has been in the headlines recently.

Under the deal with Trump, Carrier agreed to keep the furnace part of the plant open, saving 800 jobs in Indianapolis. But it’s still moving 600 jobs to Mexico to make fan coils.

The company laid out the moves in a letter to employees Thursday, saying it expects the move will be completed by the end of 2017.

Carrier also confirmed Friday that a second factory owned by Carrier corporate parent United Technologies is also still moving to Mexico. That move will cost Indiana another 700 jobs.

The Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment about the jobs moving to Mexico.
