Of all the things they cut. They cut something that actually made money and returned cash to the Treasury, and that was helping our exporters as well.
I think China paid for this so that China’s aerospace and heavy machinery industies could finish off our American industries.

Kudos to conservatives for killing crony capitalism bill.
Government subsidies to anyone, corporations or individuals, do not fall from the sky. They are paid by hard working tax payers.
If a corporation is o inefficient, they need a subsidy, it is best if they be allowed to go bankrupt. That will make more room for the more efficient corporations to grow.

No doubt there are a few American manufacturers that benefited from Ex-Im Bank. They can go to a private bank if they need financing like anyone else.

No, stupid is giving Tax-Payer provided Welfare to corporations.
And that is exactly what the Export-Import Bank was.

They can go to a private bank, but...
- That private bank may not offer the insurance that the Ex-Im Bank offers.
- May not be able to match the special financing offered by competing firm's governments.
- Can't use the full faith and credit of the U.S. government to lower the rates to support American jobs.
- Won't understand the risks as well as the Ex-Im Bank that specialized in such transactions.
- Probably wouldn't have the leverage with foreign countries to help out when there are difficulties.
Seriously, this would be like our armed forces telling our soldiers they have to arrange to source and buy their own bullets like any other citizen. It just doesn't make sense.

I guarantee that my RINO Congressman would have voted for it, cause he voted for it all of the past times.

That is not how free market capitalism works.
LASTING Jobs are not created by taking taxes from the more efficient and giving subsidies to less efficient corporations. It is called fascism.

All I know is that Obama, Reid, and Pelosi have been pimping for reauthorization and I can’t find many good things that they have supported.

Forrest Gump voice- I may not be a smart man, but I don’t understand why someone on a conservative website would want the government to use taxpayer dollars to subsidize private business. Solyndra, anyone?

“Financing”?
Where does that money to finance subsidies to less efficient corporations comes from? Is there a money tree in Washington DC?
That money comes from other hard working tax payers and more efficient corporations.
How did you get indoctrinated into fascist thinking?

To: Isara
The House had already taken its stand on this long before Cruz’s diatribe trying to use it as an excuse for his vote for TPP that he received some backlash for. Cruz had nothing to do with this result - it’s ridiculous for anyone to claim that he did. And besides that...it isn’t over. Too early for victory.
