Apparently, it's attracting businesses back to the US again rather than drive them away with regulations and taxes.

Japanese car factories use 1/3 the human labor as non-Japanese factories. Ford will take this opportunity to close the gap. It means the Silicon Valley and Southern California automation and robotics industries will benefit the most.
That's what happened. wrote:

Governments interfering with the free market, forcing companies to open factories in locations where they don't want to by threatening big tariffs... is this now what republican party economic policy looks like?
Seems pretty socialist.
It isn't attracting businesses back to the US by lowering taxes and regulations, as is normal in conservative economic policies, it is putting tarrifs and taxes on businesses to force them to manufacture in the USA or lose their competitiveness in the US market. Because of the government interfering.
Do you not understand how this is not fiscally conservative in any way whatsoever?

You can keep repeating yourself but that doesn't make it true.
"One of the factors that we’re looking at is a more positive U.S. manufacturing business environment under President-elect Trump and some of the pro-growth policies he said he’s going to pursue."
Trump saves jobs and liberals continue to melt down. I love it!

Ok so what some spokesperson says he is doing and what Trump threatened to do are different things.
From trump's own mouth:
General Motors is sending Mexican made model of Chevy Cruze to U.S. car dealers-tax free across border. Make in U.S.A.or pay big border tax!
Which is the opposite of conservatism. It is a socialist style control of business. Trump has repackaged socialist ideas and you all seem to think they are now republican ideals?

Trump is actually taking action to save American jobs. I can't believe it! What an idiot! He'll never get Democrat votes in 2020 doing that!

You just can't even understand what I'm trying to say. This is not republican style politics. It is not a conservative fiscal policy. It is not capitalist. It is not free market friendly.
I don't care because I think those things are bullshit, but republicans don't. I'm just wondering what happened to politics. When did the right wing start putting forward socialist policies and the conservative populus agree that they are good ideas?
Next he will be suggesting that medical insurance companies should answer to a centralised body to regulate prices and improve healthcare. You will all think it is a great idea.
This.

Great! so a few people in a state I will never enter keep their jobs, and I pay 35% more for everything I buy. Sounds like good policy.
The 35% tariff is for vehicles made outside and imported into the US. By keeping the plant in Michigan there will be no 35% tariff.

The 35% tax is the proposed import duty to be added on all products bought from Mexico.
There will be a tax on our soon to be strong border of 35% for these companies...wanting to sell their product, cars, A.C. units, etc., back across the border.
Well done republicans for voting in the least republican presidential ever. What happened to the Muslim bashing that he promised you? Instead he raises taxes and interferes with the free market? Sounds awfully socialist. I like it personally.

Fox News? LOL!
Funny, when I saw this on Fox News, I said to the guy beside me, "I guarantee CNN and MSNBC will not even mention it. I was surprised to see CNN's headline the same as Fox. Then I checked the propaganda machine known as MSNBC. No mention of it. Instead, their headline was, "Did Trump Commit Treason?"
Trump could turn water into wine and MSNBC would report only how terrible the wine tasted.

Read a history book. For most of the country's history we had ONLY tariffs, and no income tax.

Read an economics book. Who cares about the countries history? The UK once ruled with a King, who gives a shit?
Free market capitalism which the US builst itself on is not about the government forcing the arms of private companies. How am I having to explain this to so-called republicans? You are supposed to love the private sector.
Maybe Trump will offer up a Nationalised Health insurance service and that will be lapped up by the confused new republican-socialists.

Wait, do you really not understand how imposing a tariff on imported goods allows domestic producers to charge more? No, American producers aren't paying the tariff, but they can increase their prices when the prices of foreign substitutes go up.
If company A and company B both produce similar cars that they sell for $30K, and a tax is imposed on company A that forces it to raise its selling price to $35K, what do you think company B is going to do? It is obviously going to raise its prices to.
