Restoring the US Economy

We need to increase our national productivity, reduce our national costs and restore the rule of law.

We need to restore manufacturing jobs to cities and rural counties in the US is needed.  These companies should be able to return to US operations as we become competitive with foreign operating costs.  Trump is moving the corporate tax rate from 35%, the highest rate on the planet, to 15%, giving these companies a 20% boost.  Trump is also offering a 10% tax to return capital from foreign banks to the US.

We need to reduce unnecessary immigration.  Trump is moving to reduce illegal immigration, close the border and stop the refugee program.  Too many of these folks are on welfare and those who are working are taking jobs from the 94 million working-age US citizens who don’t have jobs.

We need to reduce unnecessary regulations. Trump is moving to eliminate “climate change” concerns and all other unnecessary regulations that would impact costs. We need to keep our energy costs low by using coal and hydro instead of expensive wind and solar.

We need to reduce the US trade deficit from $750 billion by all means possible. Trump is moving to eliminate regulations that prevent US citizens from harvesting our vast natural resources like coal, oil, gas, timber, fisheries and agriculture.

Trump is moving to make only bi-lateral trade agreements.  This means the trade agreement will be separate for each country. That enables the countries to better estimate what goods and services they need and what will likely be bought.

Trump is moving to cut federal spending and reduce the size and scope of the federal government and restore economic growth, so we can pay down our $20 Trillion debt. Trump is defunding abortion and defunding our enemies.

Trump is moving to reduce crime and prevent terrorist attacks by returning the “Trojan Horse” and deporting illegal criminals and securing the border.

Trump should cancel Clintons Agenda 21 executive order to lower costs for taxpayers and eliminate mal-investment and government overreach.

Trump has already issued executive orders to begin to restore our economy on all fronts.

We will know the impact of Trump’s actions as we see manufacturing return to the US and illegal immigrants and refugees return to their home countries.

We want college grads to be able to get jobs that match their degrees after they graduate.  We want to see high school and college students with minimum wage jobs again.  We want to see US citizens fill higher-paying manufacturing jobs and skilled trades. We want to see 20 million or more of the unemployed 94 million working-age US citizens at work.
