Trump taps billionaire investor Ross for commerce secretary

There is no expense of you...

I swear on God I think progressives are absolutely economically retarded.

Look, just sit back and let the intelligent people fix what is broken for the next 4 years...... Yeah, I know you will hate being better off because you hate anyone that has any sort of capital....

You haven't made a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing dime in your life and you actually have the audacity to judge successful people?

Your judgment and bias against success is noted.

 

Yup! He sure done drained that there swamp - only trouble is is that he now has made it into a snake pit!!!

 

How so?

 

in the article it says what jobs he saved were by limiting benefits, the workers may have been better off unemployed on welfare with generous benefits, instead of near minimum wage with no benefits.

 

I hope that Ross is lenient enough with his fellow competitors during his ascent and downfall times before.
Otherwise only close ones can share the pie making it somehow an issue of personal favoritism.

 

it is not if but how we make a dime that counts, and successful capitalists can make money with everyone or at the cost of everyone.

vulture capitalism is where the rich profit by making everyone else poorer, it is different than ethical capitalism where everyone gets rich together through wealth creation.

bankers like ross lead the way to get rich from outsourcing jobs by acting as middle men when they move American capital to poorer countries with cheap slave labor, for an unfair discount at the cost of the American workers high wages and benefits, and lawfully steal the difference.

 

What do you think you know about capitalism?

Please tell me what you think capitalism is.....

Also, please tell us all what it is you do to create a better society besides not using caps to make language seem casual?

 

Cronyism ((((((((((((((((((((shudder)))))))))))))))))))))

Look st every third world country and where there is a failing government it is because of cronyism

"jobs for the boys"

Look we know about the old school network - it happens in every country but where you have people chosen because of past favours and friendship rather than if they can truly do a good job then you are setting the situation up for a massive and complete fail

In.this case I am predicting that American workers will lose rights, privileges, leave, benefits and pay.but what would I know I am only an Aussie and our politics has ALWAYS been about capitalism versus the worker

 

40 years ago, foreign banks could not do business in the US, if that competition is not here US banks could make even more money.

 

Then why didn't they opt to leave their job and suckle the government teat?

 

So which one of Trump's appointment is not qualified? I don't dismiss your opinion just because you're not an American, I think our countries are a lot closer than others in terms of politics and demographics....though I admit I don't care much about Aussie politics....no offense. I think US politics have always been about personal freedom (poor and rich and in between) vs. government. It's not always portrayed that way in media but that's how I look at it.

 

the government teat in swing states may not be supple or competitive with minimum wage, but it doesn't change the fact that this rich banker profited at the expense of the poor.

they are entitled to high wages with generous benefits, that is why they elected President Trump to bring manufacturing back.

 

Who said his appointments were not qualified? They are very qualified -- to keep the gravy train flowing for the likes of other billionaires. Just like it has always been in DC.

Trump, however, ran on the premise that he would help the little guy. That would require somebody who actually understands what average Americans go through. However, the only average Americans those guys know are their servants.

Draining the swamp it ain't.

 

I love how folks criticize President elect Trump before he has even had a chance to do anything. How many times has that happened and Trump shows everyone they are wrong? The reason I love it is because the critics end up with egg on their faces! Hahahahaha!

 

Where have his critics been wrong? Many, including myself, have said from the beginning that draining the swamp will not happen.

A leopard can change it's spots. And Trump's "spots" have been very visible for all to see, except his devoted fans.
