Trump’s First Artful Deal

You know that Donald Trump’s “deal” that resulted in the Carrier air conditioning company  remaining in Indianapolis is a great thing in light of all the hysterical howls of hateful protest coming from Clintonworld.  “It’s crony capitalism!!!” says Austin Goolsby, the Obama economist who was dead silent for eight years of Obama/Clinton crony capitalism gone wild.  “They’re looting Washington!!!” said one of those “Democratic strategists” on FOX News.

Goolsby and the “strategist” are full of it, of course.  There is no evidence of any kind of Clintonian/Arkansas grifter pay-to-play scam here, nor is “Washington” being “robbed” of anything — not that there would be anything wrong with that.  From news reports, the state of Indiana (i.e., Mike Pence) offered to reduce the amount of state-sponsored plundering of the Carrier corporation if they remained in Indiana.  State “tax breaks,” in polite language.  This will increase tax revenues to Washington, unfortunately, contrary to the rantings of the Demo-Communist talking head on FOX.  But overall it is a VERY good thing if it encourages other state politicians to follow suit and compete more vigorously for business location by reducing corporate taxes.

Moreover, since there are no longer any limits — constitutional or otherwise — on the growth of government, anything that reduces tax revenues, even temporarily, is an unequivocal good.  Taxation is stealing from the productive class in order to subsidize the predatory/parasitic class.  Anything that diminishes that process and leads to more production and less parasitic predation is unequivocally good for the rest of society.  That of course is why the Demo-Communists, the primary overseers and beneficiaries of the predatory/parasitic class, are losing it over the Carrier deal.

All they are capable of doing is spewing ever more bile and hatred in the direction of Donald Trump and the productive, working class people who support him by the millions.  It is simply hilarious to listen to them say that yes, it is a good thing that those 1100 people in Indianapolis will not lose their jobs at Christmas time, while at the same time hysterically and hatefully condemning the deal that made it possible for them to not lose their jobs at Christmas time.
