“Trend the same path”.

Obama stifled growth for a full six then, in spite of it all, America managed to slowly pick up speed.   It was in spite of his policies and regulations though...not because of them.  If you are denying the “Trump bump”, well.....

Ahh never mind.  “THANKS OBAMA!!”

 

 

Of course, that and the bureau of labor was crooked too!

The story said no new jobs.

Here is the situation happening at this place, and others. Jobs, some temporary, will be created for electricians, engineers, techs, construction workers, etc as these corporations expand and automate. The actual jobs inside the plant, after all this? The same, likey even less, as they now have automation. Whole this is good for those specializing in automation, it’s not good for the average production worker.

The steel industry is a winner with the tariffs.

Hey dingalings, ya better be careful here. You might end up agreeing with obama and others when they stated things like automation kills a lot of manufacturing jobs 

Progress kills some and creates others.  Those without a brain get left behind.

It keeps the company modern increasing throughput trickle down helps the employees keep their jobs and skills.

One of my customers just invested a shit load of money on a new press.

It may only take one guy to run, but the added capacity requires more people to contend with the end product. It requires more from beginning to end.

My god, just last week we had to double up on pickup cause or truck can't contain.

Nope, no 'trickle down' here.
