LOL copying Trump's healthcare shtick. I like Trump's proposal on on making immigration merit based like the rest of the first world has, I support lowering immigration numbers, and wrote my (Democratic) house representative to tell him he should vote for it to dry up labor supply and hopefully start a rising tide for wages from the bottom up. If Trump had a good healthcare plan I'd write my rep again to tell him to vote for it, that opposition based on party lines is retarded and why the country hates congress so much right now. But Trumpcare is garbage so I wrote to tell him Obama is right in advising them to not to give in.

Obamacare is shit, too, dude. Or do you like the idea of living in a county that doesn't have a fucking plan? Whatever government is shit. We'll get fucked regardless of what you think.

Fair enough; but be prepared to get fucked either way. You may be able to make some marginal dents in the ass fucking coming your way if that helps you sleep at night. Just keep writing your congressman, and he'll keep filing it in his trashcan.

Yup, and I wasn't always a truther. I used to have the same dismissive attitude towards them that you do. I suggest you study up on it.

The writing was on the wall for US manufacturing in the 60s and 70s, no one paid attention. But hey, those Foxconn employees will pay taxes and add jobs! MAGA!

20 years? You'd be lucky to get 5.

It's funny to read "American jobs". We all pretend to give a shit about American jobs. We really only care about OUR job, and maybe to a lesser degree the jobs of our family and friends. We have a distaste for non-Americans working in the US because they "take American jobs". Then we say shit like "all lives matter". Then the MSM reports "An American among the dead" as if that makes the event suddenly more meaningful, because those other folks, just a blob of flesh we didn't know, but that American, hell..he was good people.

Hypocrites, all of us.

Of course. He was too poor to dodge and too incompetent to deploy, so they stuck him at the back of a mess hall

Unaware of him saying anything, was just using something everyone wants as an example. Could use "everyone gets "$10k free!" and partisanship would still have people shitting on it. It wouldn't stop those people from happily spending it tho.

MSNBC hosts blow up Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s proposed $3 billion tax credit giveaway to Foxconn

http://2d0yaz2jiom3c6vy7e7e5svk.wpen...le-800x430.jpg


“Foxcon won’t get any payouts until they follow-through with the construction and hiring,”

An analysis from the Wisconsin Legislative Fiscal Bureau says that the deal heralded by President Trump

won’t generate any profits for the state until 2042 at the earliest.”

“So assuming Foxconn makes good on the promise, which we shouldn’t, because it

broke another deal three years back in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

So Wisconsin will wait 24, 25 years,”

“Building a technology supply chain in Wisconsin is growing more expensive for the state. Incentives offered by Wisconsin and its municipalities to Taiwan’s Foxconn Technology Group since it announced a $10 billion megaplant there have gone up by nearly $1 billion, with programs such as a $134 million road improvement plan adding to the bill. …. [T]he ballooning costs underscore how expensive and unpredictable such big manufacturing projects can become for states and cities eager to attract new investments and jobs”
