President Donald Trump discusses the short-term (relief) and long-term (recovery) efforts for Puerto Rico.    As everyone is aware, even before the storm the island territory was under financial collapse as a result of Democrat mismanagement and generational political agendas’ creating a culture of dependency.
Hurricane Maria has exacerbated Puerto Rico’s problems and is showcasing a governmental structure incapable of governing during crisis.  The media hypes the suffering, yet omits the Island’s inept systems of governance and the culture of dependency.  The only way the U.S. federal government can assist effectively is by taking over almost every aspect of state and local government.
As President Trump points out in this impromptu press conference, congress has some decisions to make on the long-term future of Puerto Rico.  Throwing money at the problem is futile when the recipient systems are fraught with ineptitude and corruption.

.
After several conversations with dozens of relief and recovery workers the message to CTH from boots-on-the-ground is the same: the culture of dependency is jaw-dropping. Watch the raw background footage from Western media on the island and see if you can spot any native Puerto Rican residents doing much, if anything, to help themselves.

OMB Director Mick Mulvaney appeared on Tucker Carlson show tonight to discuss the proposed tax reform plan.  One of the biggest hits to Blue Cities in Blue States would be the elimination of state income tax deductions.  Mulvaney discusses this aspect along with the multitude of downstream consequences within the proposal.

The MAGAnomic agenda for 4%+ GDP growth consisted of three basic fundamental legislative needs from congress:

• 1.) The approval of the Trump budget reducing year-over-year spending.
• 2.) The repeal and replacement of ObamaCare.
• 3.) Tax reform to include lowered rates on “middle class” and ¹corporations.

All three principles for strong national economic growth are opposed by multinational corporations and multinational banking interests along with the DC UniParty.  The legislative results so far are clear evidence of this opposition.  There are trillions of dollars at stake.

¹The multinational corporations (tax/policy lobbyists) don’t care about lowered rates because they have gone through corporate financial inversion and established their company headquarters overseas.  The lowered corporate rates only benefit domestic U.S. companies.
