Bernie Sanders: Donald Trump Has Endangered U.S. Jobs With Carrier Deal

“It is not good enough to save some of these jobs,” Sanders wrote. “Trump made a promise that he would save all of these jobs, and we cannot rest until an ironclad contract is signed to ensure that all of these workers are able to continue working in Indiana without having their pay or benefits slashed.”

any new Jobs when they went Right to work for less,answer is they lost thousands and Walker gave huge Tax breaks to his Campaign Friends. Answer is no. The Skilled and Educated bailed to a more favorable environment.

This deal of giving tax incentives to Corporations just to move off shore,is really stupid. Everyone on this board knows someone who got has lost their job to some off shore market. And the Company used negative Tax Credits to move those jobs. If I could get the IRS to pay me to move my Jobs,well that is one hell of a temptation .

These Jobs at Carrier are only staying for the duration of the Tax incentive and then SEE YAH. This whole thing was a prearranged Political Stunt to pacify Trumps Rednecks.
