Isn’t it great that Republicans now will control both Houses and the White House as well? The uplifting things that can now be done to restore America, are breathtaking. The Supreme Court should be in good hands for maybe 50 years, and that alone should make America weep with joy. Naturally, the great Democrat ‘unwashed’ set, are protesting, breaking windows and doing their ‘thing,’ It is the great Democrat unwashed set which is partially the reason why Trump was elected. We’re damned tired of their liberal ways, violence, and endless partaking at the welfare trough. Did you see their ugly countenance as the cops rounded them up in Portland?
Many will now say, “OK, Trump won, but what’s so bad about America that we need him to fix?” That one’s easy. As an example, look what has happened to America under Obama, besides more than doubling the national debt and Obamacare. The employment figures tell a whole story about runaway government. Latest figures show that government employment is 22,235,000. Manufacturing employment is 12,258,000. This means that 22,235,000 are living off of our taxes and producing nothing other than unconstitutional rule and regulation making and inventing, when 12,258,000 are manufacturing things, paying taxes, and are productive people. 9,977,000 fewer are making things than those who make nothing, and generally cost us a fortune and get in everyone’s way.
Here’s a quote from page 242 of “Consequences,” (see ad at bottom of this article). “I am reminded of large signs on two bridges at the entrance to two former manufacturing cities in America: Chester Pennsylvania, and Trenton New Jersey: One says “TRENTON MAKES, THE WORLD TAKES,” and the other says “WHAT CHESTER MAKES, MAKES CHESTER.” Neither are true any longer. Shuffling papers, writing regulations, suing people, leveraged buyouts and other types of hocus-pocus, didn’t make America the greatest nation on earth with the highest standard of living. America became great by inventing, manufacturing, and selling to everyone else in the world, not buying from them.”
Or from page 240: “Major American cities all had manufacturing industries. Philadelphia, a city I am well acquainted with, had hundreds of factories that made such things as Disston saws, Stetson Hats, Philco radios and TV sets, Baldwin locomotives, several brands of carpet, Botany 500 clothing, sugar, ammunition, groceries, and building materials, just to name a few. I can’t think of a single one that is left. The buildings are empty, decaying, and target of arsonists. The surrounding neighborhoods have also suffered from the unemployment. Literally millions of jobs have fled America, to lands where there are no stiff regulations, heavy taxes, pollution controls, OSHA, EPA, and the rest of the alphabet soup agencies that regularly throttle business and confiscate our wealth.”
See why we need Trump? Trump has said that he will cut silly regulations, cut taxes, and in various ways bring jobs and prosperity back to where they originated … America. He will cut corporate taxes from 35% to 15%, and make corporate headquarters come back to America voluntarily, because we no longer will have the world’s highest corporate tax rate. He will make it foolish for manufacturing to go to Mexico or to China, and I’ll bet that Ford is now going to cancel their plans for a huge plant on Mexico. He will renegotiate or cancel NAFTA, which alone has been responsible for hundreds of thousands of jobs leaving America.
The Republican ‘establishment’, for decades, has campaigned to do what Trump has promised, and none have happened. Trump will do it, as he is not a politician and is not a member of the D.C. gang which has destroyed America with false promises and myriads of laws, rules, and regulations. Donald Trump is a highly successful businessman and knows what makes his and other businesses difficult to impossible to exist. Rules, regulations, high taxes, and stifling bureaucracy. Trump says he will put a freeze on federal hiring and let attrition reduce the number of federal employees. Makes sense to me. No wonder he was elected!
