People say they'll pay more for something made in the U.S., but they won't actually do it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If you paid Americans a living wage, they would be able to pay for products made by Americans in America.
American workers won't be able to compete fairly for jobs until companies have to pay higher wages in countries like China and India.
We're actually making stuff in America now. We're exporting stuff. We're inventing things.
Instead of worrying about who's American and who's not, here's a better idea: Create incentives for any global company to do what we'd like it to do in the United States.
There are supply chains that exist in China and Asia now which the U.S. simply can't replicate.
One of the great dilemmas for America will be that American companies will do very well while American workers might not.
America is our biggest market, and I really do believe if you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere.
Now you have a choice: we can give more tax breaks to corporations that ship jobs overseas, or we can start rewarding companies that open new plants and train new workers and create new jobs here, in the United States of America.
Let's make what Americans buy. Buy what Americans make. And sell it to the world.
I have found that many other countries will buy off on anything American. As much as they hate us, they want to be us more than anything.
