EVERYTHING TRUMP BUILT , PRES.MORON WILL DESTROY....
Whenever a progressive opens their mouth on this board they just confirm they have no clue about economics, science, math, history...hell, anything. They will all try and bullshit their way through though.
Their lives are mostly fantasy....by choice.
BIG PAIN is coming, make no mistake about that!
You realize companies don’t make sudden decisions like this, don’t you? Most companies take years to make plans like this. This leads me to believe they were never going to do the deal in the first place.https://trendingpolitics.com/ford-m...n-takes-office-will-be-moving-out-of-america/
Ford Makes Massive Announcement Just 2 Months After Biden Takes Office, Will Be Moving Out of America
President Joe Biden has only been in office for two months and American companies are already plotting their exit as they gear up for Biden’s crippling tax plan.
According to a new report, the Ford Motor Company will be moving their $900 million planned investment plant from Avon Lake, Ohio to a new site in Mexico. Do you really think President Donald Trump would have allowed this to happen?
In a letter to Ohio Assembly Plant (OHAP) employees in Avon Lake, where Ford employs about 1,740 workers manufacturing its F-650 and F-750 medium duty trucks, UAW official Gerald Kariem said Ford had committed to investing $900 million in the project in 2019.
The massive investment, Kariem wrote to workers, included a Ford commitment to bring a “next-generation product” to the Ohio Assembly Plant for production by 2023 and an “exciting vision for the complete revitalization” of the plant to secure “employment well into the foreseeable future.”
“These contractual commitments were an enormous win for the UAW, for the great state of Ohio, the community of Avon Lake, and most importantly the members of Local 2000,” Kariem explained.
UAW officials are claiming that Ford executives are leaving the deal and will move their investment to Mexico instead:
Tell the Union workers to talk to the guy they voted for!
For most. I agree.
There is yet another surprise for someone coming from the East, where the press is rigorously unified. One gradually discovers a common trend of preferences within the Western press as a whole. It is a fashion; there are generally accepted patterns of judgment; there may be common corporate interests, the sum effect being not competition but unification. Enormous freedom exists for the press, but not for the readership because newspapermostly develop stress and emphasis to those opinions which do not too openly contradict their own and the general trend.
Without any censorship, in the West fashionable trends of thought and ideas are carefully separated from those which are not fashionable; nothing is forbidden, but what is not fashionable will hardly ever find its way into periodicals or books or be heard in colleges. Legally your researchers are free, but they are conditioned by the fashion of the day. There is no open violence such as in the East; however, a selection dictated by fashion and the need to match mass standards frequently prevent independent-minded people giving their contribution to public life. There is a dangerous tendency to flock together and shut off successful development. I have received letters in America from highly intelligent persons, maybe a teacher in a faraway small college who could do much for the renewal and salvation of his country, but his country cannot hear him because the media are not interested in him. This gives birth to strong mass prejudices, to blindness, which is most dangerous in our dynamic era. There is, for instance, a self-deluding interpretation of the contemporary world situation. It works as a sort of a petrified armor around people's minds. Human voices from 17 countries of Eastern Europe and Eastern Asia cannot pierce it. It will only be broken by the pitiless crowbar of events.
Wrong this is about the corporate tax hike Biden is goin to enact!
You do not move a plant for about a billion dollars for a couple of points of tax. That would be stupid.
I thought this was about jobs leaving the US...which is what the OP is about.
The Tax Cut and Jobs Act didn't lead to corporations investing or hiring more, so it should be repealed because it's adding to the debt with nothing to show for it.

And why is FORD doing this?
Because, despite all the phony platitudes from Ford on how much they love America and it's people, it turns out they really do care more about making M-O-N-E-Y than they do the American people who help them make it.
Just what would President Trump have done? Large companies were moving production out of this country every year trump was in office
Hopefully
