    But, for what cost...

    Government can't create non government jobs, government can only limit red tape that prevents jobs from being created.

    these manufacturing jobs...

    Are they needed/wanted?

    I know just a couple people who are unemployed and in each case it is self-inflicted and reversible. Pretty much everyone I know seems to be doing well. People like to debate this jobs topic on the internet with $500 smart phones, manufactured in tucked-away places where people may $1 an hour, sleep stacked up in dorms. Dorms have suicide nets because if an 'employee' kills themself, they are useless to the company.

    The 40s and 50s, with entire towns' male population punching into a factory for their shift, with apple pies cooling on a window sill, and everyone attending church on Sunday is not coming back.

    It is important to create and maintain jobs of all varieties and keep things going in favor of that.... but I do not think we are in some crisis with bread lines.


    I think the keys, and the focus should be on education, science, and innovation. I wouldn't mind seeing welfare/unemployment benefits reformed. This 'driving the illegals out' and being adversarial to the global economy to save jobs just seems like low hanging fruit sound-bytes.

    Sadly, President Trump signed an order to continue the construction of the South Dakota pipeline which appears in turn continue various jobs. Maybe that's the ONLY thing he's looking at with that decision.....It's creating jobs which sucks.

    Yup it creates hundreds of TEMPORARY jobs.
    When completed there will be maybe 50 FULL TIME jobs associated directly with the pipeline.

    Sharp Corp, the Japanses display maker, may break ground on a $7-billion plant in the U.S. as Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe readies for his first meeting with President Trump, Reuters reported.

    A Sharp spokesman told the news agency that no final decision has been made on the plant, but the report said Sharp is taking the lead on a project initially outlined by its parent company Foxconn.









    The report said that the chief executive of Foxconn floated the idea about the $7-billion display-making plant. He did not elaborate where or when the project would occur.

    VIDEO: US ECONOMY ADDED 227K JOBS IN JANUARY

    Japan, which has a consistent trade surplus with the U.S., is putting the finishing touches on a package that it claims will create 700,000 jobs in the U.S. and help create a $450-billion market, Reuters reported, citing government sources familiar with the plans.

    Abe and President Trump are expected to meet on Feb. 10 at Mar-a-Lago, where the two will play gold following a meeting in D.C. on Friday. Major Japanese newspapers cited a draft of the proposal that calls for cooperation on building high-speed trains in the U.S. northeast, Texas and California. The two sides would also jointly develop artificial intelligence, robotics, space and Internet technology.

    The Japanese may use money from its foreign exchange reserves to fund the package, Reuters reported.

    On a broader basis, the two countries would cooperate in building liquefied natural gas facilities in Asia to help expand exports of U.S. natural gas and work together to expand nuclear energy-related sales.

    The aim appears to be to turn what could potentially be a major crisis over trade friction into a business opportunity for both sides.

    Abe's proposed public-private initiative is intended to create several hundred thousand jobs, the reports said Thursday, and involve $150 billion in new investment in U.S. infrastructure from Japanese government and private sources over the next decade.

    Asked in parliament about his plans for talks with Trump, Abe said Japanese companies are making significant contributions to the U.S. economy.

    The 40/50/60's analogy will never happen because both people need to work to pay for basic everyday goods. It is a rarity to have one parent staying home anymore.

    Of course it happened in the name of rights and govt was behind it because it meant more tax dollars to feed the machine.

    so we need Japanese money to create jobs here in the USA?

    I thought America would make America great again?
