Workers at endangered Indiana plant feel forgotten by Trump

The real news


HUNTINGTON, IND. — A full parking lot and 50-hour workweeks belie the anxiety at the United Technologies-owned factory outside a small northeastern Indiana city, where Mike Harmon and co-workers wonder whether they aren't just stockpiling parts for when the company sends their 700 jobs to Mexico.

Their situation has gained scant attention compared to the sister Carrier Corp. factory two hours away in Indianapolis, which became a rallying cause against plant closures during the presidential campaign and where President-elect Donald Trump intervened to stem some — not all — job losses.

Trump will succeed if he does become the voice and ally of the working man and women against the greed and corruption of the managers and stock holders. His presidency will go down in flames if he does not.

So it was bad that he saved that jobs and now it is bad that he doesn´t save these other jobs. Messiah Trump and his disciples must now walk through the country, from villages to metropoles, and preach. Or you guys just let him become President in the fist place.

Not that "socialist" Obama helps them, right? The workers, the workers... But how were they off with "socialist" Obama who charged them the bill of the Bankster´s bailout?

Only alt right Eur-ME idiots says confusing things like it's bad he saved jobs and it's bad he did not save jobs. But . . . he did not save all of Carrier's jobs and he has done nothing for the Huntington workers.

Compare the American economy in 2009 and in December 2016. You are an idiot.

The economy recovered somehow, not completely, but that is not due to St. Hussein´s healing hands. America has learned nothing from the Real Estate Bubble. The next Bubble is inevitable. Your Lehman Bubbles are crap. The last one had impact on dozens of countries. Stop predator capitalism already.
