“thank you for your service” – trump missed the military but he is giving his all – giving to the country – far, far more than he could have at 22. his wisdom-laden later years, not four years of the immeasurably long life of young.
a precious gift from one so aware of the value of time.

Much more, I mentioned this on another thread, that I watched an interview with local businesses when Trump first brought this issue up and each business stated that they probably wouldn’t make it if the plant left due to all the business from the employees on their way to and from work. Restaurants etc. Trump did way more than save those carrier jobs, he saved a community. I’m so glad I caught that video that someone posted because it made this promise he kept that much more powerful for me.

This needs to be spread far and wide because it is so much more than 1,000+ jobs!. The $7 million in tax breaks over 10 years equates to just $700,000 a year to save 1,000 jobs. That comes out to a $700 per year subsidy for each job.
Now compare what the State would have to pay first in unemployment compensation, and then in welfare support of 1,000 families if those jobs were not retained.
When you figure the Trump Administration will be establishing tax breaks for corporations and individuals, elimination of regulations that are destroying commerce and jobs, consider this subsidy as basically “buying time” for the Trump Administration’s economic strategies to take hold and take off.

I know when they had the Big 3 trouble back when they got their illegal bailout the common job factor was X 10……this is the number of jobs the primary jobholder helped to support through either vendors to the primary business or service industry workers from the recirculation of the money paid to those workers…..a common “multiplier effect” of a private sector job used by economist is X 3 meaning a salary produces that much economic activity in the near community as it is circulated around……FYI for government it is 1.8 an dis why the infamous Piglosi once stated unemployment was an economic builder

Mrs. Papini was held 3 weeks, released by her kidnappers Thanksgiving Day. Two women, very carefully concealed their identities by wearing masks or by bagging Mrs. Papini. She can only identify the eyes, hair and eyebrows on the kidnappers. It is said, the intent may was to shame and humiliate Mrs. Papini. I pray the investigators Godspeed on find the two women involved.

Just look for the ones willing to open their eyes. Forget the rest.
Human nature is at play. Most Americans will use every bit of rationalization they have to avoid facing up to the ugly reality that their entire media political and judicial system is corrupt and subversive.
Freemen, like those of us here, may have been trusting, naive, or uninformed,….. but once we saw the end game of the Statists, we stand and fight.
But a sad truth is that many many people are “natural slaves”. They just want to be cared for and they embrace what what America has evolved into. They will never accept the reality of their predicament (slavery) and will fight with all their might anyone who tries to make them see it.

One of the things we are seeing for the first time on the long road ‘back’ is the uncovering of how deep Communism has pervaded the country. Daily headlines scream: Rioters in Austin, Texas are communists, protestors in Oregon are communists, communists try to block a Milo event, students prefer Castro over Trump, ad nauseum, And the admitted communist infiltration into the college system is staggering. Hollywood is a cesspool of communist sympathizers.
With the new bright light of American freedom shining the Communist-cockroaches are being exposed for who they really are: anarchists determined to undermine our way of life. I know McCarthy may have gone to extremes decades ago…but maybe there was some truth behind his unflinching efforts to expose Communism on our country.
