Chef Jim Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if it were due to an anticipation of an easier regulatory environment, not limited to repealing the ACA. Don't know how that's bullying, either... Well the report I heard is that Amazon is adding 100,000 jobs to keep up with 2 day delivery for their Prime customers.

Tiberius Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Where does is say that Amazon and Walmart made those decisions to add jobs based on anything Trump has said or done? Winning political strategy. Remember, unemployment isn't really that high, but Trump is taking credit every time a very tiny number of jobs--compared with the millions in the economy--are added. His threats and bullying do affect individual companies but not sure if it has much affect across the economic landscape. Obama has left things pretty well, and Trump will just change the marketing from "America is a disaster" to "America is great again" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Where are the Libertarians??? They only crawl out from under their rocks when a Dem is president https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-01-25/trump-picks-unfortunate-time-to-push-for-new-u-s-auto-factories Trump Is Squeezing Detroit at the Worst Possible Time Car sales have gained for seven-straight years after the U.S. auto bailouts and the financial crisis, a streak that’s close to running out of gas. That’s a recipe for trouble facing companies wary of undoing the painful but necessary steps they took to shut dozens of factories across the country, before and during a more than $70 billion government bailout. New assembly plants cost General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. or Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV about $1 billion -- the sort of investment companies look to avoid making as a market peaks. And while factories boost jobs, economic gains from building them are being undercut by automation and pressure to compete with lower-wage countries including Mexico. “This is the nightmare scenario for auto companies, which are being asked to make huge capital investments right before a slowdown in sales,” said Dan Luria, an analyst who has advised the United Auto Workers union. “It seems like hardly the time to spend billions on new plants.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
