Trump Don't the Billionaires start factories and create jobs

[Penelope]

Trump is a billionaire, maybe he should start manufacturing factories in the US to make his ties, suits, and hats.
Only the elites could afford them though, like I doubt most on here could buy one of his apts, or even play golf on one of his golf courses.

The point is, as long as wages are lower in China, Mexico, and India, those jobs are not coming back. Ever since the beginning trade has always been important, the Silk Road.

Heck even King Solomon used cedar from Lebanon and spices from Yemen and India. The more we buy from other countries, the more US dollars go to those countries, which makes the dollar king. If we cut ourselves off from the world we go under.

Putting a tariff on everything, will only hurt the lower income people, because........ the consumer always pays.

When you have a consumer based economy and the price of consumer goods is going to be hit with tariffs, it’s bad news for the economy.

Clintons’ foundation has raised nearly $2 billion — and some key questions

Since its creation in 2001, the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has raised close to $2 billion from a vast global network that includes corporate titans, political donors, foreign governments and other wealthy interests, according to a Washington Post review of public records and newly released contribution data.

The total, representing cash and pledges reported in tax filings, includes $262 million that was raised in 2013 — the year Hillary Rodham Clinton stepped down as secretary of state and began to devote her energies to the foundation and to a likely second run for president.

The financial success of the foundation, which funds charitable work around the world, underscores the highly unusual nature of another Clinton candidacy. The organization has given contributors entree, outside the traditional political arena, to a possible president.

---------

The Post review of foundation data, updated this month on the group’s Web site to reflect giving through 2014, found substantial overlap between the Clinton political machinery and the foundation.

Nearly half of the major donors who are backing Ready for Hillary, a group promoting her 2016 presidential bid, as well as nearly half of the bundlers from her 2008 campaign, have given at least $10,000 to the foundation, either on their own or through foundations or companies they run.

The Clintons have relied heavily on their close ties to Wall Street, with donations from the financial services sector representing the largest share of corporate donors.

And many of the foundation’s biggest donors are foreigners who are legally barred from giving to U.S. political candidates.

A third of foundation donors who have given more than $1 million are foreign governments or other entities based outside the United States, and foreign donors make up more than half of those who have given more than $5 million.


And of course....why should the law stop the clintons.....

The newly updated foundation donor list shows that, despite the restrictions on foreign-government support imposed during Hillary Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state, the foundation continued to rely heavily on non-U.S. sources. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that the foundation has now lifted the foreign-government restrictions.

The data shows that some major donors represent international interests that have faced scrutiny from the U.S. government.
