An ‘America First’ Trump Trade Policy

[Tommy Tainant]

I forgot to add that the bigger US companies structure their affairs to avoid paying corporation tax on profits. They do this by basing a head office in low tax Ireland or Luxembourg and funnelling all their money through there. Its an absolute scandal that successive governments have failed to nail.
Its worth adding here that the "globalist EU" has differing tax regimes in every state and these states compete against each other for trade.
The larger Corps play them off against each other, they are not victims at all.

Its an absolute scandal that successive governments have failed to nail.

the scandal is that we have the corporate tax at all since it is passed on to customers like any cost in the form of higher prices.

Best to eliminate it so business can concentrate on good products and good jobs not on beating an insane worthless liberal tax bureaucracy.

The only reason we have the tax is to pander to the pure and total ignorance of liberals.

Nonsense. Its a recognition that corporations benefit from the things that taxes pay for and should share the burden.
Its not a difficult concept matey.

I did not vote for Donald Trump in 20016 and I’m very much unlikely to do so in 20020; BUT if during his administration, he signs and enacts an “Import Certificate” policy as described in Wikipedia’s article entitled “Import Certificates” or he strives to have such a bill passed and runs on a platform to sign such a bill, it’s extremely likely I’d vote for President Donald Trump in 2020.

That bill would effectively eliminate USA’s annual trade deficits of goods, and more than otherwise increase our GDP, numbers of jobs and median wage. Rather than being a net source of tax revenue, that policy behaves as an indirect but effective subsidy of prices to foreign purchasers of USA exported goods.

All the trade policy’s net direct costs are passed on to USA purchasers of imported goods. The substantially market (rather than government) driven trade policy could not halt the importation of any item for which there’s an effective demand among USA consumers of goods.

Edward Baiamonte, I suppose one must blessed with a mind operating with your very peculiar logic to conclude a trade poIicy that consequentially (more than otherwise), increases our GDP, numbers of jobs and their median wage will impoverish Americans.

Which Americans will it impoverish? You may choose from among the Canadians down through the Argentinians.
