    United Technologies collects about $5.6 billion in annual revenue from U.S. government contracts, according to company filings, which is equal to about 10% of its overall revenue. The government also pays for nearly $1.5 billion of the company's annual research and development spending.

    So, is this legit? It's from CNN, you know :-)

    Geez - does it matter how few jobs it is? - it's important to the people/families who lost the jobs. If true, he shouldn't even be doing this yet - he's not in office for awhile.

    anecdotes are powerful. more powerful than the inertial moment of free trade, free labor and corporate impunity?

    probably not, but it is a pleasant thought.

    I provided context. It is .000007% of total employment. He is the POTUS, not the mayor of Indianapolis.

    I'm just showing context. How many Americans do you think 7% unemployment is?

    Here’s What You Really Need To Know About Trump’s Carrier Deal


    • Compared to Carrier's 1,000 jobs, Obama's auto bailout saved something like 250,000 jobs at GM and Chrysler, and 1-2 million total jobs throughout the entire automotive supply chain. Just sayin'.
    • Needless to say, showering incentives on manufacturing companies to stay in America is not a sustainable national manufacturing strategy. And anyway, aren't Republicans opposed to the government picking winners and losers?


    • Just for the record, the biggest supplier of working-class and middle class jobs in Indianapolis is not Carrier—or any other heavy manufacturing company. The top ten are Eli Lilly, Indiana University, Purdue University, St. Vincent Hospital, St. Francis Hospital, CNA Financial Group, Methodist Hospital, the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital, Roche Diagnostics, and FedEx.

    Those Chevrolet and Chrysler jobs were never going to disappear. A bailout/bankruptcy/buyout/rebalance was inevitable. See Fiat buying Chrysler later.

    The disruption to the suppliers was the big hammer.... That plus tons of jobs would be lost in the ensuing "reorgs".

    Not saying it wouldn't have been nasty but there were several ways to solve the problem. Giving GM to the UAW was just one of them.
