Thread: 1,400 American Workers Outraged as Company Informs Them It’s Sending Their Jobs to Me

The reason many American workers are Democrats is because it was Republicans who started pushing the free trade treason agenda. Republicans throughout history since our inception as a party were protectionists. We believed in protecting our trade with tariffs and other means because this protects our economy, our workers, our investments, our enterprise, our ingenuity, our technology, and our money supply. We also opposed immigration on any significant level. Then something happened in the 1980's and everything started going to pot behind our backs.

That's when Donald Trump saw this as well and started speaking out against it. No other Republican candidate has. He is still the only one. So I believe many Independents and Democrats will support Trump for this reason. I believe this issue will prevail for them over the welcoming immigrants doctrine of the Democrats. Why would American Workers of any party support massive immigration that steals their jobs? It's insanity!! So, I think they are waking up and coming to our side because of Trump's stand on trade, will be just as supportive of our stand on stopping immigration and when on our side will have the freedom to say so.

I think the Democratic party intimidates their members into their stance for pro-immigration. With Trump, Americans can be Americans unfiltered. It's just a wonderful thing he is doing for the American People. In many ways, he is setting us free, and it feels really good.

A phone call from the White House will not repeal NAFTA, it will take legislation. Not living up to the agreement will not void NAFTA. That's where the WTO comes in. Complaints are to be handled by lawsuits orginating from the offended party. If the Democrats were so gung-ho on repealing NAFTA, why didn't they submit a bill to do just that when they had control of the congress? Repealing NAFTA will require enough votes from both parties unless one party has a veto proof majority (with every party member in agreement) but so far the will hasn't been there to attempt it. Unfortunately not all Democrats support the repeal of NAFTA, nor do all Republicans, it will take bi-partisan support. No, the President can't act alone to repeal NAFTA.

Apparently, you'll be very shocked to learn what a common sense, smart and loyal President of the United States can do with treason treaties like NAFTA, CAFTA and so many more acts of treason against the United States and the American People.

Carrier Received $5.1 Million in Obama-Stimulus Cash Before Move To Mexico

Heating and air-conditioning company Carrier, which has announced it will move 1,400 Americans’ jobs to Mexico, received $5.1 million from the Obama administration.

Local media reported the “Department of Energy awarded Carrier $5.1 million in clean energy tax credits in December 2013” for its Indianapolis facility. They planned to use the money to “expand production at its Indianapolis facility to meet increasing demand for its eco-friendly condensing gas furnace product line.”

From WIBC:

“Energy Efficient Buildings: With the support of $5.1 million in 48C Program tax credits, Carrier Corporation will expand production at its Indianapolis facility to meet increasing demand for its eco-friendly condensing gas furnace product line. The new line includes the most energy efficient gas furnaces on the market – all with at least 95 percent annual fuel utilization efficiency”

At the time, John Gibbons, director of Carrier’s residential product and platform strategy,said the cash “has been instrumental in helping Carrier’s Indianapolis manufacturing facility accelerate production of our high-efficiency gas furnace line.”

Despite the money, the company announced last week they decided to move 1,400 jobs to Mexico. Local union representatives will discuss the move with Carrier. Fox 59 reportedthat some “employees will be entitled to severance benefits, including access to the company’s Employee Scholar Program, which pays for tuition, books and fees at accredited higher education institutions.”

An employee documented her co-worker’s outrage at the announcement.



“Today’s surprise announcement was without warning and incredibly disappointing,” said Mayor Joe Hogsett. “While I am obviously concerned about the economic impact, my top priority is the well-being of the hardworking families affected by this decision. A job lost in any part of our community affects us all, and I believe these are the times we must come together as one city to lift up our neighbors.”
