So why does the left do every thing they can to stop the right from trying to change where it is best for corporations to invest?
Most of the time, that plan comes with what amounts to corporate welfare. You know, things like subsidizing the cost of building or elimination of property taxes. Why is that somehow a good thing, but taking care of the worst off among us is to be frowned on?
We need heavy tariffs so that it is better for them to build here than China and elsewhere.
In the end, its the consumer who ends up eating those costs. It won't solve anything, and will probably make shit worse. As long as they can sell thier products worldwide, it will still be cheaper for them to make shit elsewhere, and if they lose the American marketplace, oh well. Other places will pick up the slack.
We need to stop illegal immigration so supply and demand wages come back into play.
Some of the worst offenders talk out of both sides of thier mouth. They bitch about illegal immigrants, all while hiring them because they don't cost as much as an American worker, as they really have no recourse if they are treated like shit in the workplace. So spare us the bullshit. Hell, immigration could be basically stopped with one simple change.....employers willingly stop hiring them. With no incentive to come here, they would stop almost immediately. That, of course, would require employers to be willing to let go of thier readily available source of cheap labor. It actually ties back into your previous point.....by using illegal labor, they get to make products here and avoid the tariffs you want to see and at the same time, get the benefit of "outsourced" labor.
