Trump Talk™

Less politics, more explaining what this master plan is.

I don't think so, TFW You realize the only foreign car & firearm manufactures build in America only because of tariff rates.

It's huge, and its gonna make America great again.

I don't know why the focus is on factories when the stocks of multinationals are going to be taking the real hit if Trump backs up what he says, if president.

Never forget...

Did he buy his Klan hoodie from a Chinese knockoff dealer? Because it looks that way.

Also, never forget that Byrd spent his later years as a Senator atoning for his past views on race.

I highly doubt you would understand it, but here it goes:

1. Impose a foreign income tax and remove foreign tax credits for business income from operations.
2. Allow a one-time repatriation income tax of 10% for all off-shore frozen income over prior years (what Apple and Microsoft were accused of abusing in years past).
3. Remove MACRS from the tax code. It was great, but with bonus depreciation and Section 179 on the books, it's become irrelevant now. Might as well make all capital investments expenses instead.
4. Institute in the federal budget foreign investment incentives (take away from the Defense Budget instead) to help with states with higher unemployment rates to encourage foreign investments (could be state foreign or national foreign, both have equal merits).
5. Include a tax incentive for multinationals repatriating investments that show (through either annual reports or a separate tax form) closing down factories overseas and building domestically.
6. Include a tax incentive for multinationals in investing in smaller companies who supply to those said multinationals (Toyota is a perfect example of a company who invests in small, local companies for their parts here in the US).

That should at least spur some positive growth for both domestic and foreign multinational companies (you know, those companies that took the jobs overseas) while also spurring small and medium-sized businesses to grow (which is the brunt of the national workforce. Not every job is made from Walmart or GM).

Can you name an example?

Can you name a foreign car manufacture that makes cars here?

Honda.

Volkswagen.

Let me rephrase the question.

Can you name an example of a tariff that these foreign car and/or firearm manufacturers are bypassing by building in America?

Toyota.

BMW

....wait a minute

Mercedes-Benz

foreign cars are built here to save money because of the cost they would have to pay from import/ dock fees, It's called tariffs. I know you run a sweat shop full of smelly midget immigrant from the south, even you should understand.

Tariffs are taxes, not docking fees.

Because if you consider docking fees as tariffs, you would also consider the cost to transport the goods from the foreign nation to the nation of sale as a tariff also, which is also incorrect.

Docking fees, along with transportation costs, are costs associated with moving product from the warehouse/factory to the wholesale store.

I was associating dock fees as saving with tariffs as reasons for foreign manufactures building here, come on smalls.

You do realize with free trade agreements, there are no more tariffs associated with goods and services anymore, right?

Your whole argument hinged with tariffs, which do not exist anymore.

You are so full of ***, everyone can see it in your eyes.

this is so god damn awesome.


I can't imagine a taco salad is even mexican food, is it?

It definitely isn't.

you'll have to pardon my ignorance on the matter, I'm damn near in canada up here.

It's cool, most people here (the US) seem to have difficulty understanding Texmex isn't actually Mexican food. Heavily inspired, but very much different.

Most people here probably wouldn't eat real Mexican food... Or Chinese food for that matter.

real Mexican food is amazing, anyone that wouldn't eat it has personal issues.

Any of you hope & changers remember this?
