Biden Tax Increases Proposed and the Business Exodus Begins

[pknopp]

We need to tax any income made from items Ford makes in Mexico at 80%.

Yes but that won't happen under Biden. Trump would have done that.

Trump DIDN'T do that.

He threatened to do that and companies remained in the US --- Carrier

No they didn't and he "threatened" a lot of things but followed through with very little.

They did. Corporate Inversions declined dramatically.

No it didn't.

Are you going to hold your breath and pout? They not "it" did. Do you know what corporate inversions are and why they happen?

Greed.

If capitalism and maximizing shareholder value = greed then yes.

Great. We agree.

I said "If"....never said I agree. I also disagree that greed is necessarily bad.

When it places tens of thousands on welfare I consider it bad.

When it creates millions of jobs it’s great

In Mexico.

If that happens then Ford will move their corporate Headquarters to Mexico.

Let them. They can enforce their patents and whatever in Mexican courts also.

And China but also America

Less and less in Mexico.

You apparently don't care about Americans losing thousands of jobs to another country.

Cool then you won't mind paying more for it when Biden gets his tax hikes.

Save me the fear mongering

Guess what?
I didn’t see prices come down when Trump cut their corporate taxes by 40 percent

 

[rightwinger]

The moral of this thread is that Ford is sending manufacturing to Mexico even though we cut their taxes by 40%

Hint: Lower wages and benefits

Who ever said they would?

The only thing that's going to bring consumer prices down is the consumer's behavior.

It looks as if Ford has read the tax writing on the wall.

So I see how it works

We slash their taxes almost in half and they pocket the difference
We put taxes back where they were and they raise prices

hmm.

The idea was to bring the corporations back here and provide domestic manufacturing jobs.

You want to pay 80% more for a Ford part at the dealership? That's what would happen. You people are idiots. Trump brought them back and you send them away again. Also you're flooding the border with unemployed illegals. We are screwed.

Didnt happen

Another thing that didn’t happen is trickle down in higher wages and lower prices

Fuk em

If they insist on ducking taxes let em leave

So, if they insist on RAISING taxes, fuck those people Ford employed too, right?

The mind of a leftist is so predictable because it is so short-sighted and stupid.

Cry me a river

We cut taxes for Ford by 40 percent and they didn’t do shit for their employees.
First thing they do is ship their jobs to Mexico

Those average salaries look pretty good to me so it seems they are treating their employees quite well

I bet you wouldnt be saying that if your family was fed by your salary working n a ford assembly line. So lets see.....Ford makes a business decision based on proposed tax increases and you say to them fuk em. Let em leave. So the outcome is no new taxes on Ford and thousands of American jobs lost and you say "fuk em".....

Typical "not in my backyard attitude"
