  • Is the “we” in this Canada or Mexico or something?

    I’m not following. If Trump’s incoherent ramblings are to be generously interpreted, he wants all production to move back to the states. Currently many countries, and states, have huge tax incentives and other government handouts to encourage filming on their ground. If they all go back to that states, the American Companies lose that free foreign money, and depending on how it all shakes out, states will still be paying out tax incentives. At least for awhile as the industry finds a new home.

    That’s all extremely hypothetical to try and understand Trump.













  • Not related. It’s not a zero sum game. Spending on certain things can save money and allow for tax cuts, tax cuts can create business growth or income in other ways and allow more spending. Defering tax cuts to a certain time or spending to a certain time can lead to better results, ect ect ect.

    Anyone who thinks it’s linked and must be Tax up=Spending up or Tax down=Spending down should probably not even be in charge of their own homes finances. Even children are taught how to save their allowance over time and then spend it, and I had occasion as a child to “borrow” my allowance to purchase a toy that was on sale.
