Goldman Sacs - who better to close the flood gates than someone who used them? Also see "billionaires" above.
Better for the state to give the money to KEEP PEOPLE WORKING than paying it out in welfare to KEEP PEOPLE FROM WORKING.

Pence did not quit his Governor job so he could use Public state funds of $700,000 to pay Carrier not to leave.

But Ross said Wednesday those measures may only be a last resort.
"Everybody talks about tariffs as the first things. Tariffs are the last thing. Tariffs are a part of the negotiation, he said. "The real trick is going to be increase American exports..
Like I said in an earlier post, we are going to have to export Californians and Texans and their capital to the Midwest to teach them to be entrepreneurial again.
Believe me I am not a Democrat in the camp of Sanders and Warren. Warren came out strongly against Mnuchin yesterday. The moderate Democratic view is leaderless right now as Clinton and Biden ride into the sunset.
The election also has created for me some strange bedfellows. Yesterday, found me agreeing with a George Mason economist.

Posts: 707I do find it strange that supposedly Trump loyalists, Conway, Huckabee and Gingrich are arguing Trump's cabinet choices on the talk shows. Of course, if Democrats make their views known on the choices then we are in Conway's words 'crybabies'.
The more I read about economic nationalism, the more I think it will lead the USA in the wrong direction. Take for example the Putin's version of economic nationalism in Russia. In 2009, Russia per capita GDP was $8562. In 2015, it was $9057 or about .9% annual growth. In the under performing economy during the Obama years, the USA went from $47,000 to $55,836 GDP per capita which is 2.9% annual compound growth. This is data from the World Bank as found on Google.

Posts: 912Racial Distribution in the United States.
What is the racial makeup of the United States?
White Americans are the racial majority, with a 77.7% share of the U.S. Population. African Americans are the largest racial minority, amounting to 13.2% of the population. Hispanic and Latino Americans amount to 17.1% of the population, making up the largest ethnic minority.
Google it guys, the facts are the facts. To listen to the major media outlet you would think Blacks and Hispanics were were near parity with whites in the population. They sure make the most noise until this election.
Trump will become President, he will govern the United States and things are going to change is some big ways. Liberals/progressives can complain all they want but it will not change those simple facts. I was most unhappy with Obama and very happy to see him go. You guys need to get used to being on the short end of the stick. Obama cost the democrats the House, the Senate, and now the Presidency.
Your turn in the wilderness my friends.
