It is going to take years to break through the false constructs of radical left-wing economic principles which have been sold by modern academia and corporate media.  However, eventually people will recognize once again that being allowed to keep their own money, the outcome of their own labor, is not an expense on government.

The current Carrier HVAC story is an example of economic cognitive dissonance.  Allowing Carrier to keep a larger portion of their own income, to afford a larger labor force, is not a government expense. Government does not own the income, Carrier does.
The reason Mexico was the better play was simply because by changing locations the company could: A.) make more, and B.) keep more – of its own revenue.  Donald Trump is attempting to reverse this cancerous economic system and create the better play right here in the U.S.A.

“We have the most killer deal-makers… we never use them, I know many of them… these guys are brutal… hard… and Obama uses Kennedy in Japan, I mean give me a break… we need strength”… “and we will win, and you will win, and we will keep on winning, and eventually you will say we can’t take all of this winning, …please Mr. Trump …and I will say, NO, we will win, and we will keep on winning”.

Today, via Facebook (<– specifically note this), President-Elect Donald Trump announces more members of his economic team. Steven Mnuchin for Treasury Secretary, Wilbur Ross as Commerce Secretary, and Todd Ricketts as Deputy Commerce Secretary.
In essence, the Trump economic patriotism platform takes shape with the introduction of a few more key members for the domestic economy dream team.

If you have followed the Trump economic mindset from the beginning, you’ll know exactly what the purpose of each of these players are into the larger scope of domestic capital infusion. Remember, one of the essential elements Trump needs is to create the environment where the best play is domestic, ie. Main Street, investment.
To reverse three decades of economic outsourcing, the investment scales (best return) must tip from Wall Street (global investment) to Main Street (domestic investment), that’s where Mnuchin, Ross and Ricketts come into play. Economic patriotism is leveraged by steering capital investment much like well constructed levies can steer the flow of water.

The bigger story here is that: A.) A U.S. President-Elect actually cares about blue collar jobs, and B.) United Technologies, ie. Carrier’s parent company, recognizes their best interests are now to focus on “America First”.

(New York Times) From the earliest days of his campaign, Donald J. Trump made keeping manufacturing jobs in the United States his signature economic issue, and the decision by Carrier, the big air-conditioner company, to move 2,000 1,400 of them from Indiana to Mexico was a tailor-made talking point for him on the stump.

On Thursday, Mr. Trump and Mike Pence, Indiana’s governor and the vice-president elect, plan to appear at Carrier’s Indianapolis plant to announce they’ve struck a deal with the company to keep roughly half of the jobs in the state, according to officials with the transition team as well as Carrier.

We are pleased to have reached a deal with President-elect Trump & VP-elect Pence to keep close to 1,000 jobs in Indy. More details soon.

THE TRUMP EFFECT – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has already announced the Canadian government’s willingness to renegotiate NAFTA.   In addition, President Trump’s energy agenda plans to triple domestic U.S. energy production, no carbon tax, and the Trump tax proposal drops the corporate tax rate to 15%.
One Canadian economist realizes exactly what this confluence of events adds up to:

Consumer sentiment, confidence in the economic outlook of individuals, has jumped up over 8% since Donald Trump’s election victory.  The gauge of expectations six months from now gained 8.4 points to 85.2, the biggest jump in four years, from a two-year low of 76.8 in October.
(Via Bloomberg) Consumer confidence rose more than previously reported to a six-month high in November, showing Americans became more optimistic about their finances and the economy after Donald Trump won the presidential election.

The University of Michigan said Wednesday that its final index of sentiment rose to 93.8 from 87.2 in October, after a preliminary reading of 91.6 that reflected pre-election views. The split was stark between respondents in the month’s survey before and after the Nov. 8 vote, with sentiment rising 8.2 points in the post-election group from the pre-election cohort.

There is a massive economic surge making noise just on the other side of the horizon; best understood within the following dichotomy:

♦ Manufacturing automation reduces the need for human capital.

♦ The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing is due to lower labor costs overseas.

The inability to square that modern ideological and economic circle lies at the heart of a new economic paradigm, a second American economic revolution.

When W Edwards Demming exported his post world war II industrial manufacturing management skill to Japan, the key export was not technological – it was psychological.
There is something very unique to the American labor market that does not exist within global competitors; the ability to innovate, to think outside the box.
Within the culture of Americanism lies a very specific DNA strain that is non-conformational, or anti-status-quo.  It’s an immeasurable and unquantifiable factor in the success of American economic exceptionalism.  No other nation has found a way to duplicate it; the closest anti-establishment cultural sensibility is Australia.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is contemplating a new administration against the backdrop of 8 years of left-wing environmentalism pushing “climate change” as the crow-bar to achieve their agenda items.
More and more Americans are becoming aware the larger climate goals have nothing to do with the environment, and are driven by a group of elites who have worked earnestly to create the pop culture narrative toward “climate change” as a social engineering tool.

The ultimate objective of decades of selling and reinforcing this narrative is a secondary global financial market based on ‘carbon-trading’ to create, essentially, a new financial exchange similar to the futures market on Wall Street.  Once established the exchange can use purchases and sells of ‘carbon credits’ to generate a new global oligarchy.
Their unified goal (for decades) has been to create an entirely new secondary financial market where global elites can control all human activity beneath their ruling dictates.  The essence of pushing the various “climate change” initiatives are simply tools to achieve this objective, nothing more.

99.99% of the American electorate have yet to fully grasp of the scope of the 2016 election.
99.99% of Americans have sparse comprehension toward the meaning of 8 years without a federal budget – when contrast with a reality of a $986 billion (that’s billion with a “B”), “stimulus” bill that has been re-spent (used as an executive slush fund), and intentionally hidden behind the curtain of the UniParty.
99.99% of Americans have no cognitive concept of what is possible, because the water-carrying media never discussed the ramifications of an absent federal budget.
However, there is one person who knows, and the possibilities are jaw-dropping for the next President-Elect.  More on that later….  In the interim, the Federal Department of Richard Windsor is, well, apoplectic. (more…)

PORTLAND, Ore. –  The leaders of an armed group who seized a national wildlife refuge in rural Oregon were acquitted Thursday in the 41-day standoff that brought new attention to a long-running dispute over control of federal lands in the U.S. West.

A jury found brothers Ammon and Ryan Bundy not guilty a firearm in a federal facility and conspiring to impede federal workers from their jobs at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, 300 miles southeast of Portland where the trial took place. Five co-defendants also were tried one or both of the charges. (more…)
