There's 1400 employees. They're keeping 1000. Drumph didn't use his yuge expertise in negotiations to come to adeal with Carrier. Rather, he and the state of Indiana, Pense, gave Carrier lots of money through state "incentives" and tax breaks in order to convince the company to stay.
That's not negotiation, that's bribery. That just gives all the other richies a way to be showered with gubmint funds. HEY, Drumpence. I'm thinking about moving my bidniz to Costa Rica! But, for a lesser incentive, I can be persuaded to stay. |

^It can't be saved that way, but every relocation deal involves a heavy amount of incentives. This one was pretty much all PR and only possible because Pence was the governor, but that doesn't mean it was a bad deal. I couldn't really find any details about the exact incentives offered, so the jury is still out on this one, but the use of incentives is not new or a bribe/handout.
We will have to wait for him to be president to see whether his policies allow the manufacturers to make more money in the US, without providing specific incentives to keep them here on each deal. Even then though, cities/counties/states are going to compete for the manufacturing jobs via incentive packages. |

Based on what I have read here, it is difficult to make a decision.
What specific tax breaks were offered in exchange for keeping the jobs? What is the meat of this deal? You would have to weigh the cost of the subsidies against those workers being out of work, potentially leaving the state entirely, or even worse not working and going on some form of government assistance. I'm sure Carrier would prefer to keep their operation here, if it makes economic sense for them. Moving an operation like this can't be easy and must take a lot of time. One can only assume that all parties were able to meet in the middle and it sounds like they agreed on a deal that made more sense than the alternative. I don't think I have ever seen a President working towards projects like this before their inauguration. I'm not making any judgements about it, one way or the other at this point.

Looks like $700,000 in tax payer money and threats to cut government contracts to the parent company United Technologies.

While Carrier's factories carried major symbolic weight for the president-elect, negotiating on a case-by-case basis with each company that threatens to outsource jobs would require a lot of time and effort - especially if each company expects Trump to sweeten the deal.
Bernie Sanders: Carrier just showed corporations how to beat Donald Trump President-elect Donald Trump will reportedly announce a deal with United Technologies, the corporation that owns Carrier, that keeps less than 1,000 of the 2100 jobs in America that were previously scheduled to be transferred to Mexico. Let's be clear: It is not good enough to save some of these jobs. Trump made a promise that he would save all of these jobs, and we cannot rest until an ironclad contract is signed to ensure that all of these workers are able to continue working in Indiana without having their pay or benefits slashed. ------------------------- GOP: Gaslight Obstruct Project |

"Let's be clear. United Technologies is not going broke. Last year, it made a profit of $7.6 billion and received more than $6 billion in defense contracts. It has also received more than $50 million from the Export-Import Bank and very generous tax breaks. In 2014, United Technologies gave its former chief executive Louis Chenevert a golden parachute worth more than $172 million. Last year, the company's five highest-paid executives made more than $50 million. The firm also spent $12 billion to inflate its stock price instead of using that money to invest in new plants and workers.
"Does that sound like a company that deserves more corporate welfare from our government? Trump's Band-Aid solution is only making the problem of wealth inequality in America even worse. I said I would work with Trump if he was serious about the promises he made to members of the working class. But after running a campaign pledging to be tough on corporate America, Trump has hypocritically decided to do the exact opposite. He wants to treat corporate irresponsibility with kid gloves. The problem with our rigged economy is not that our policies have been too tough on corporations; it's that we haven't been tough enough." ------------------------- GOP: Gaslight Obstruct Project |

The firm also spent $12 billion to inflate its stock price instead of using that money to invest in new plants and workers. Its called a stock buy back its not a shady practice. Its meant to reward investors who believe in the company. Its all on the up and up [SEC filings]. You should look into this kind of thing, it will help you avoid poverty in retirement. |

You should look into this kind of thing, it will help you avoid poverty in retirement. It is legal, but it is a scam. These financial tricks are a huge part of what's killing the US economy. The allocation of corporate profits to stock buybacks deserves much of the blame. Consider the 449 companies in the S&P 500 index that were publicly listed from 2003 through 2012. During that period those companies used 54% of their earnings - a total of $2.4 trillion - to buy back their own stock, almost all through purchases on the open market. Dividends absorbed an additional 37% of their earnings. That left very little for investments in productive capabilities or higher incomes for employees. The buyback wave has gotten so big, in fact, that even shareholders - the presumed beneficiaries of all this corporate largesse - are getting worried. "It concerns us that, in the wake of the financial crisis, many companies have shied away from investing in the future growth of their companies," Laurence Fink, the chairman and CEO of BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, wrote in an open letter to corporate America in March. "Too many companies have cut capital expenditure and even increased debt to boost dividends and increase share buybacks." Why are such massive resources being devoted to stock repurchases? Corporate executives give several reasons, which I will discuss later. But none of them has close to the explanatory power of this simple truth: Stock-based instruments make up the majority of their pay, and in the short term buybacks drive up stock prices. In 2012 the 500 highest-paid executives named in proxy statements of U.S. public companies received, on average, $30.3 million each; 42% of their compensation came from stock options and 41% from stock awards. By increasing the demand for a company's shares, open-market buybacks automatically lift its stock price, even if only temporarily, and can enable the company to hit quarterly earnings per share (EPS) targets. https://hbr.org/2014/09/profits-without-prosperity Harvard Business Review Edited: 12/02/2016 at 08:56 AM by 3rdworldlover |

So, now you know why Pence had not resigned yet from his Governor job.
The $7 million incentive is not coming from the Feds, it is from the State through the state's Indiana Economic Development Corporation. And who can authorize the money? Only the Governor can. So, is was imperative that Pence stay as Governor until at least this deal was executed. ------------------------- "Greg Hayes, UTC chief executive officer, criticized Trump, without mentioning his name, at a Nov. 1 appearance at the Council on Foreign Relations. "Developing an isolationist approach will not - I repeat not - create growth or jobs nor will it make any country great," he said. "The forces of globalization are real and they are inescapable." But he finally had to give in because of possible retaliation in some form or other from the Clown King jeopardizing the highly lucrative $6 billion annually UTC receives in U.S. military and other contracts. --------------------------- |

The 7 million is bullshit. But if it's true that there was a threat toward government contracts of the parent company, that's a straight up pinko socialist move and I like it.
Trump really is a national socialist. I prefer the democratic flavor, but we'll take the jobs. It just can't be sustained like this.

The bottom line here is that Trump saved these jobs where the PiC could not. In other words, Trump has proven successful and rubbed it in the face of the PiC and progs everywhere. And, not surprisingly, the progs are acting out. As cultists, they cannot psychologically accept that we are right and they are wrong. And, thank goodness, they are too stupid to realize that by whining and grouching over Trump saving American jobs, they are making people hate them even more. And as we saw from the election, the vast majority of normal people hate them quite a bit as it is. ------------------------- I :heart; Q |

Pure economic ignorance there. You should realize that shareholders own the company. They own the company and, therefore, have a right to some part of the company's earnings. What you stated is saying that a business owner commits a shady practice by giving himself a piece of the business' income. The economic ignorance on the part of progs is truly astounding.

Just because you "have a right to some part of the company's earnings, doesn't mean it isn't irresponsible to take as much as you legally can. Do the math. What's left over for reinvesting, growing, and rewarding employees? Here is the biggest problem with the US economy: Greedy, elitist pigs. It's not taxes. It's not regulations. With the exception that the small businesses pay an unfair share and are subject to tougher regulations, while the Too Bigs get special treatment, which brings us back to Carrier's bribe, I mean "incentives."

You are wrong 3rd. I have a right to take as much profits out of my company as I want. My business, my profits. Now, that isn't to say that you rape your employees. You don't get ahead in the end doing that. But, you don't overpay them either. That will cost you in the end as well. I suspect that I am wasting my time writing this. But, I will give it a shot. I invested money in a small business last year, one in Indiatlantic that, fortunately, is doing very well. A large percentage of new, small businesses fail. Thus, I took a big risk in putting my capital into that business, as I might have lost every penny of it. I would not have done that if I had no signifiicant upside. Would have left the money in the bank. That business now has 3 employees, all of whom are getting minimum wage. Each of them will have a chance to earn more in the future. They get paid every week. But I get paid my share every month. Now let me ask you something. Who should benefit more from the success of the business? The one who started the business, hired those employees and has a substantial amount of money at risk, or the ones who have a job only because I took that risk? Would the employees have been better off if I had not taken the risk and were unemployed instead? ------------------------- I :heart; Q |

Nobody said you don't have a right to take as much as you want. And we're not talking about a cashier at Paul's Boutique.
Ever consider the investments made by employees; the engineers, programmers, marketing specialists, accountants, etc? They're taking on much more risk than the investors, taking on heavy debts just to get a foot in the door. And thanks to the reckless levels of taking discussed above, it's gone well past the point of being worth the effort. There is just no reward and no stability anymore. |

Workers used to also have the right to organize and bargain collectively. There's no longer a level playing field, so a government representing the people have the right to intervene if necessary.
I'm saying he doesn't have the right to take as much as he wants. Hell no. If you take more than what's fair you can expect consequences. ------------------------- The American patriot professes love of his country while simultaneously hating 90% of its people. |

They still have the right to organize. Most private sector workers vote against unionization. People figure that unions arent worth the dues. I agree with them.

It means whatever he wants it to mean. Haven't you heard Trump's spokespeople arguing that there are no such things as facts? Something becomes true when enough people believe it. So now, the government intervening in the economy by subsidizing solar and taxing coal falls under Fish Killer's new definition of "Free Market Capitalism" that he found on bing. It is a tall one to claim that China's managed economy is "free market". He actually skipped over several correct answers in the bing results to copy/paste one answer of many from answers.yahoo.com. The answer was provided by someone called kevinstud99.

Good catch. I always wonder whose words fishy is twisting. It's funny how he's left the Bible behind as his authority and now relies on search engine answers. He's still in the kiddie pool when it comes to depth and he's not even in the water when it comes to originality. Lots of school kids are doing the same thing, cutting and pasting instead of thinking and it has the same results: stubborn closed minds more willing to attack than empathize.

Did you believe him when he said he was going to build a wall with Mexican money?
Did you believe him when he said he was attacked by an Isis terrorist? Did you believe when he said he would be dating his daughter if she wasn't his daughter? Did you believe him when he first said he would jail Hillary for her emails or did you believe when he said he wouldn't? Did you believe when he said he knew more than the Generals? Did you believe him when he said he couldn't release his tax returns because he was being audited? Did you believe him when he said he would be stupid to pay taxes? Did you believe him when he said that Ted Cruz's dad was part of the Jack Ruby assassination? Did you believe him when he said Obama was NOT a Kenyan Muslim, or do you still believe his first statement? Do you believe he grabs women by the pussy and he can because he's famous? Did you believe him years ago when he was pro choice, or now when he is pro life? Do you believe he has debts with Russia and vast financial interests there? Do you believe Trump will never disclose his finances to hide the conflicts of interest? You pick and choose quite a bit and then pretend that you are consistent. Your belief in Trump is far more persuasive than your belief in Jesus, and your actions are far more consistent with emulating Trump.

Is Hillary Clinton a pathological liar?
By Sinclere Lee Washington (BNW) - Hillary Clinton is a pathological liar, proper. In fact, she'll tell a lie when the truth sounds better. She'll tell a lie quicker than a Jew will sell a Blood Diamond. She'll tell a lie even before a cat can lick its ass. She's such a big liar, that she needs to get psychological help. Bill Clinton is a big liar too; who ever heard of smoking weed and not inhaling, Who can forget the big lie about sniper fire in Bosnia? "I remember landing under sniper fire in Bosnia. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base," Hillary remembered. Fortunately, the nightly news showed what really happened. There she was in long black coat and scarf (no helmet or flack jacket) walking about 50 feet to an eight year old girl who handed her a piece of paper. Hillary was traveling with Sinbad, the comedian, and he denies it happened. This was the second time she told the same lie. We all have heard of 'Jacob the Liar'... Well now we have Hillary the liar and everybody knows it. In his 1996, article "Essay: Blizzard of Lies," William Safire exposed her lies as First Lady on several points. " Americans of all political persuasions are coming to the sad realization that our First Lady - a woman of undoubted talents who was a role model for many in her generation - is a congenital liar. Drip by drip, like Whitewater torture, the case is being made that she is compelled to mislead, and to ensnare her subordinates and friends in a web of deceit and she will do the same thing as president. 1. Remember the story she told about studying The Wall Street Journal to explain her 10,000 percent profit in 1979 commodity trading? We now know that was a lie told to turn aside accusations that as the Governor's wife she profited corruptly... her account being run by a lawyer for state poultry interests through a disreputable broker. She lied for good reason: To admit otherwise would be to confess taking, and paying taxes on, what some think amounted to a $100,000 bribe. 2. The abuse of Presidential power known as Travelgate elicited another series of lies.... 3. In the aftermath of the apparent suicide of her former partner and closest confidant, White House Deputy Counsel Vincent Foster... er closest friends and aides, under oath, have been blatantly disremembering this likely obstruction of justice, and may have to pay for supporting Hillary's lie with jail terms. Again, the lying was not irrational. Investigators believe that damning records from the Rose Law Firm, wrongfully kept in Vincent Foster's White House office, were spirited out in the dead of night and hidden from the law for two years -- in Hillary's closet... When this bizarre pattern of behavior is observed over-time - by family members, friends, psychiatric professionals - and they confront her with evidence of her pathological behavior, she invariably has one response: They are lying! Sound familiar? Then there is the psychiatric disorder known as pathological lying, which is the compulsion of disturbed people to resort to lies rather than truth, the better to compensate for their feelings of inferiority. Some of the stories they make up may have a grain of truth, which allows them - or in the case of politicians, their surrogates or the media - to "spin" them to advantage. Their lies are always designed to put them in a good light and to resonate with people who also feel like victims. Sound familiar? What is the diagnosis for Hillary's lies? In Dick Morris' new book, "Rewriting History," which is basically a rebuttal of Hillary's own book, "Living History," which is full of false claims, distortions, and flat out lies if Morris it to be believed. For example, she said that in an airport, she happened to run into Sir Edmund Hillary, who was the first man to climb Mt. Everest. She claimed that her mother named her Hillary after Sir Edmund Hillary the climber. Only problem with this lie Sir Edmund Hillary didn't make news climbing anything until 5-years after Clinton was born. Before then, he was a beekeeper ------------------------- The REAL truth is....both of the forum idiots are OWNED. -BOTH of them have no clue who their owner is. -They are both card carrying narcissists. ^These are PROVED facts. |

Do you believe trumps lies? That was your question. I listed the lies. You listed the things you believed. I just wondered how complete your loyalty ran and whether you believed all or just some. You seem to be in the all category and cannot concede any lie, even when trump has already abandoned many of those lies.
