In case you missed it, the general public has been extremely unhappy with the performance of our establishment leaders. Maybe they shouldn’t be fawned over so much.
According to the following, his ties and some other other items are not made in the USA, but a number of his products are.
I’d prefer a man who harmlessly vents over a woman who physically assaults.
Huh?
The article from politifact says that “many of his products have been made overseas” but acknowledges that “a few things” are made in the US. That’s hardly glowing testimony in Trump’s favor.
Another lie from Hillary. When will she stop? She said she came out of the white house dead broke. She said she came under sniper fire in Bosnia during the ’90s, claiming her group ran “with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” A video of her actual arrival proved otherwise. etc…
According to the article in post #1028, part of the making of his hats are done in America, memorabilia, some suits, and wine.
How would he do this? By making the wages of US workers in his factories the same as those in China?
Most businesses that make their products abroad instead of in the US do so because they are getting a better deal by making them abroad. Now if American workers were willing to get paid the same wages as people living in China, I’m sure that these businesses would be more than glad to make their products in America again. Is that the kind of business environment you think Mr. Trump should help create? He could, I suppose, lower the minimum wage.
I don’t know what the wages are for factory workers in China, but presumably they are much lower than in the USA. Trump has voiced support for a $10 minimum wage, but also supports allowing states to decide.
So some states could lower the minimum wage to $5 (from the current minimum of $7.25)?
Is there a clear policy statement here? How does he bring the jobs home?
A guide to all of Donald Trump’s flip-flops on the minimum wage.
How many people involved in politics flip flop? I doubt it would take me a long time to find some information on Hillary Clinton flip flopping on some issue or another…
So how does Trump propose bringing jobs back?
He would have to go much, much lower than $10/hour to compete with Chinese workers.
This seems to be contrary to your position that Trump create a business environment where more businesses will stay in the US.
I have to agree with you on this, Meltzerboy. The only reason I speak about the issue here is because it is an issue talked about so much here.
