Why doesn’t MEXICO manufacture MEXICAN PRODUCTS?

Wish I could see this same “senior Mexican official” in a few years running his ass off to keep from being hanged by his own countrymen.

I heard Judge Napolitano earlier talking about how the state will have to “pay for” the tax break by taxing someone else. How moronic. How much taxes can they collect if they’ve moved to Mexico? This deal isn’t costing the state revenue, it’s gaining them whatever they collect after the tax break. For a smart guy the judge can say some stupid things.

So, a Mexican official calls Trump keeping Carrier jobs in America an act expected in a Banana Republic . . . .

The irony runs deep in that Messican.

Exactly. How many taxpayer billions were thrown down a rat hole for green job fantasies by the Obama administration.

Morons.

They really don’t understand how the business world thinks or works and that’s why they regulate and tax it to death.

Government is a parasite on the body of a country - a necessary EVIL to provide a few basic goods and services (roads, police, etc.).

To leftists, government is a religion. They have no faith in God, but all faith in government.

Mexico is butthurt because they weren’t able to steal more U.S. jobs.

Mark Levin is displaying his rabid Cruzite butt hurt when he, and other, self styled “True Conservatives” whine and bitch hysterically because a taxpayer, Carrier, is allowed to keep more of their own money rather then see it swallowed in the ravenous mouth’s of the Government spending class.

Utterly sad self styled like the Judge whine and bitch hysterically because a taxpayer, Carrier, is allowed to keep more of their own money rather then see it swallowed in the ravenous mouth’s of the Government spending class.

Note for you Judge, they don’t HAVE to tax “other people more” because they are taxing Carrier less. If your buddies in the media/political parasite class CHOOSE to try to raises taxes is a matter for the voters of IN to deal with.

Is what utterly amusing to me is supposed “Libertarians” and self styled “True Conservatives are busy mouthing the Marxist dogma that all economic output is property of the State and any time the state takes less it is a “Government subsidy”.

No you foolish children, the State is granted revenues by the people as a collective good. It is their property granted TO the Government not vice versa. It is up to the voters in IN to render the judgment on their Representatives if this was a wise move or a foolish move for the collective to reduce tax burdens on Carrier in exchange for the collective good of keeping the 1100 jobs. Amazing how supposed “Constitution scholars” and “Legal Experts” are so fundamentally dense on the issue.

I guess that is an example of how dwelling too long in the Washington DC swamp makes even supposedly “smart” people stupid.

Will also be interesting to see how Trump deals with Carlos Slim.

Carlos is the guy (richest man in the world) who put the cash into the New York Times to save them and owns 20% or so of it. He weaponized it for the campaign, just like Bezos did with his toy newspaper, The Washington Post.

Newspapers lose money and are a terrible investment, but they’ve now become political pawns for the billionaire class.

I’m sure those jobs would have went to the poor Mexicans in Mexico. Right.

Is the term “Banana Republic” spoke by Trump? Or is it Fake News?
