Harley Davidson Heading For Thailand....

Harley Davidson Heading For Thailand....
So much for all those "manufacturing jobs" flooding back, eh WLB?

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/car...601033002/

Quote:The union is critical of Harley for investing in Thailand while also receiving tax cuts under President Donald Trump’s new corporate tax plan.

“These companies are taking tax breaks with one hand and handing out pink slips with the other,” said International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers President Bob Martinez Jr. “I’m going to call it like I see it ... this is a corporate ambush on working people."



Well, fuck.  The last thing the Orange  Turd cares about are working people.

Corporations for the most part care about maximizing profits. If you can make your product overseas for cheaper, of course you are going to do it. A tax cut at home doesn’t change that. Legislation can.

Of course it’s not a secret that the tax cut wasn’t about bringing jobs back.

That's not what the WLB told his Deplorables. 

But of course anyone who believed him is a horse's ass to begin with.

A Trump voter could catch fire, and Trump would pour gas on them and they'd believe him if he said it was water.

You don't have to tell that to the sane, just the moronic voters that since Reagan have voted GOP. Those idiots really believe trickle down works.
