    dec 4 2016 Donald Trump warned U.S. companies of “retribution or consequences,” such as a massive tariff, if they leave the country.

    In a series of early morning tweets Sunday, Trump said companies with offshore factories would face a 35% tax on products they want to sell back in the U.S.

    “The U.S. is going to substantialy [sic] reduce taxes and regulations on businesses, but any business that leaves our country for another country, fires its employees, builds a new factory or plant in the other country, and then thinks it will sell its products back into the U.S. without retribution or consequences, is WRONG!” the president-elect wrote. “There will be a tax on our soon to be strong border of 35% for these companies wanting to sell their product, cars, A.C. units, etc., back across the border.”

    excising wage differences seems more rational, for choice theory purposes.

    Obama didn't do it because it is inane, and Trump ain't going to do it either, pure theatrics for the Trumpkins like yourself.

    Trade wars have no winner, as "sear" pointed out, Smoot-Hawley proves it, Trump ain't that dumb

    "Ever hear of a pen and a phone?" #4
    Does it come with tartar sauce?

    Noble try #5.
    Anyone that is sincerely interested in why Governor Palin and others have so articulately and vehemently condemned this Carrier deal can educate themselves by studying "crony capitalism". That's what it's called.

    Anyone that simply wants to wallow in their own ignorant or self-deluded partisan self-wrongteousness needn't bother.
