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.

Catchy tune and well produced.  Enjoy:

Socialism sucks.  It does not matter how many versions or varieties of it are attempted, the outcome is the same… misery.  The Les Deplorables are revolting…

OK, this one is entirely priceless and apropos of everything liberal. Seriously folks, you just can’t make this stuff up.

Philadelphia police posted a CCTV video asking for help in identifying two suspects who were caught on camera spray painting anti-Trump graffiti on an upscale grocery store in a Germantown suburb.

One of the suspects is participating while wearing a blue blazer, a scarf, loafers and holding a glass of wine.  Yes, really.  But wait,… as it turns out, the bourgeois vandal is actually the Philadelphia Assistant City Solicitor Duncan Lloyd. – STORY HERE –

“If the image of an upper-middle-class city attorney clad in a blazer and sipping wine while vandalizing an upscale grocery store with an anti-Trump message strikes you as perhaps the most bourgeois sight imaginable, that’s because it is,”
~ Philly Republican Party Chairman Joe DeFelice.

Today President-elect Donald Trump and Vice-President-elect Mike Pence will be visiting the Carrier HVAC manufacturing plant in Indiana to deliver remarks surrounding a negotiated deal to remain in the U.S.  There is a 2:00pm Live Stream scheduled:

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Trump/Pence presidential victory.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Perhaps the greatest benefit for more than a few within the private sector is the dawn of a new generational economic awakening coming soon amid an electorate suffering from forty years of severe battered conservative syndrome.
For approximately four decades the progressive left, the Fabian crews writ large, have been working diligently, mostly through pop culture and academia, to undermine the very essence of capitalism.

Both “academia” and “Hollywood” have aided the globalist cause to undermine American capitalism and exceptionalism by presenting an entirely false construct within economic discussion; specifically within the production value of labor, ie earned income or money.
Terms like “tax expenditure” and “government spending” have become so commonplace people don’t even give a second glance when they are uttered.   The bottom line of such acceptances is an electorate who no longer realize they are being, and have been, subjected to professional economic gaslighting.

Oof…  Take a large dose of obtuse double-speak, blend in a batch of cognitive dissonance, and bake at the highest possible level of moonbattery.

When you consider that 2/3rd’s of all House members come from New York, California or Illinois the vote to re-elect Nancy Pelosi (134-to-63) takes appropriate context.

The continued polarization of the electorate is playing out as the Democrat party focus even further on the severe left-wing ideology.  In essence, the rabid nature of the minority influence within the party is ensuring their continued irrelevance.
To give you some context for this, consider the make up of the U.S. House of representatives when Pelosi took control in 2006, ultimately culminating in the election of Barack Obama in 2008.  This is what the nation looked like when Pelosi took control:

Now take a look at the House of Representatives map in 2016:
