That all may be well and good, but imho our focus needs to be on what policies should we be looking forward to.

Another point is all other industrialized countries have VAT which is a corp to corp tax. They also have trade barriers. THE USA DOESN'T HAVE A VAT so any discussion of corporate taxes that doesn't include a discussion about the VAT is simply disingenuous.
I watched it live.
He never said it—he mouthed it silently and the audience got it.
Yep. I watched it live as well. The audio was not muted and he never finished actually mouthing the word. He let the audience take it and it was perfect.
--which may have been the 3 sec. delay edit at the studio for FCC regs. To know for sure we'd have to get the original from someone who was there but imho it's not nearly as his bad as the way he attacks employers because he says he's helping employees. Sure, it gets votes but it's cr@ppy policy.
That doesn't make him knowledgeable of the economic aspects of running a country. Big difference. Make Mexico pay for the wall. LMAO. What ..... an invoice?
Check out expat panama’s #59 post. Does that sound like a sane economic leader?
Ever since Reagan left office, there has been a very slow but steady trend toward an angry bias toward anyone who works hard, saves, and invests well.
I paid in the max into SS for over 25 years, and I get a slow rage knowing I might not ever see a penny of it after turning 66.
What will Cruz do? He never employed anyone ever. Cruz is weak for the economy.
Unfortunately, the greatest asset we have left is access to our consumer market. Damn right we should charge for it when a company runs off for cheap labor.
Ditto for the lot - all losers: pick the least worse loser; throw dart at list of names; hope for the best; sit home because my issue candidate is not on the ballot; better Hillary/Bernie than the despicable GOP guy; etc.
Is what happens when the opposition runs the MSN - we all lose.
Damn right --those owners are in the free world and that's where they'll stay whether they like it or not!
I can not trust National Review to tell the truth anymore.
Looking back, they stopped telling the truth decades ago and went full bore with the deceitful lies to push their approved candidates. We were dumb enough to listen to them.
NR is a key PR outlet of the RNC/GOPe/Neocon Uniparty elite thugs, who have been the overseers of the Faux Conservative plantations since 1961. These overseers keep trying to trick/betray/control us to stay on/in their faux conservative plantations by selecting their ilk/puppets as our candidates. They lie and promise us conservatism and when elected $crew us daily in congress and as POTUS! NR and their handpicked tv/radio hosts have pushed their lies for decades.
In NH, Trump and his voters ignored them. His voters then voted big time for Trump. They won bigtime and broke the rules of the plantation masters by voting for Trump in NH.
This is scaring the hell out of our former neocon RNC/GOPe masters of the faux conservative plantations and their ilk, the Club for Growth.
It is wonderful to see this decades old, long standing corrupt political system disintegrating right before our eyes. This corrupted system hates working Americans. It rewards illegals and those who bring them into America to freeload off the American workers slaving in the faux conservative plantation.
We are seeing a paradigm shift with us selecting our Presidential Candidate, instead of the RNC/GOPe/Uniparty elites, who hate us, selecting our candidates.
There is a Black Swan event occurring with the daily suicidal self wrought destruction of the RNC/GOPe, UniParty, Open Border Thugs, DC faux pundits, Faux News, ABCNNBCBS, NTR and the left wing fish wraps. Something similar may be happening with the DEMes.
Many of us are looking forward to seeing the broken bones, drying blood and entrails of the Lying RNC/GOP Open Borders Elite, The Club for Growth, the UniParty, their DC faux conservative pundits, their mediots, their phoney pollsters and focus groups, Faux, ABCNNBCBS, their hired tv and radio hacks strewn across the primary states as much as our victories in those states.
We have escaped from their faux conservative plantations. We are not going back for more lies, abuse and mistreatment from our former RNC/GOPe masters.
We will vote for Trump and destroy them!

What exactly is inaccurate about the article?
What points that the article raises are “nonsense”?
Politicians "running" the country is a big part of our problem. Trump will lower taxes and businesses will grow and the economy will recover. That part is pretty straightforward. What is a mystery is Trump's positions and policies on many other things. He would definitely be a spin of the roulette wheel.
Not quite...it is our government that supported policies that sent our manufacturing overseas not Trump. Corporations are forced to purchase products from China and others because of availability and low prices. Blame the GOPe and the Dems for that.
>> Just because you have some success in business makes you a leader in economic direction <<
Measured by wealth, Bloomberg is maybe 10 times as successful as Trumpf, Soros is maybe 25 times, and Buffet is around 30 times as successful.
Soros is not NBC, and Buffet is to old to run for POTUS.
I guess that means we need to vote for Bloomberg, if he enters the race — because Bloomie must know about ten times more about economics (and maybe everything else) than Trumpf knows.
>> there are even GOP candidates discussing indexing as a means of saving SS <<
Indexing? Horror of horrors. Indexing was a favorite idea of the arch-free-traitor, Milton Friedman. Tom Sowell probably likes it too. Don’t touch with a ten=foot pole!
Because I’m not in love with Trump I’m a low-life? You can’t chase me off of Free Republic. I believe in Jim’s mission to advance conservatism and its values. I don’t have to march lock-step for you.
