Meanwhile 550 new well paying jobs

[ohio herd]

Yep 550 jobs plus 1500 construction jobs are coming to Ashland Ky by 2020. This is a result of Trump standing up for America. Sorry to ruin your day liberals. Maybe Antifa can show up and protest.

This mill will make aluminum and has orders for the first 7 years. It will be the worlds most technologically advanced plant in this field

 

[Raoul Duke MU]

I'll believe it when I see it built and open. I learned a long time ago to not count chickens before they hatch, especially in Appalachia.

 

[GreenDuke]

The facility is already under construction. Starting salaries for mill workers will be 67k plus benefits.

You are becoming as dumb as Dog Fvcker and 88. I won't hold my breath, but please logically* explain how being cautious of a particular region being burned again is being a naysayer of economic growth.

* I know this is asking a lot, but I remember when this board actually resembled a group of intelligent college graduates, and not a bunch of meth addicts in a trailer park. I swear, when you all started kissing that giant orange ass your brains ran out of your noses and into his crack.

During a PBS town hall that aired Wednesday, Obama referenced Trump's promise to bring back jobs to the United States when talking about manufacturing.

“Well, how exactly are you going to do that? What exactly are you going to do? There’s no answer to it," Obama said.

"He just says, 'Well, I’m going to negotiate a better deal.' Well, what, how exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually the answer is, he doesn’t have an answer.”

The sad part in all this is trump fans actually believe this is happening because of trump. In addition to that, the trump fans believe this is due to tariffs on aluminum. Fact is the aluminum plant was announced in April of 2017, only 3 months after trump took office. Furthermore they researched a number of other places to locate before deciding on Kentucky. It's probable this plant was planned while obama was in office. And no, trumps tariffs had zero to do with this plant. trump didn't announce his plans to implement tariffs until March of 2018.

Well, of course I am. Hell, I'm a conservative, and supporter of President Donald J. Trump. Therefore, in your eyes (being a staunch liberal hippie wannabe Antifa nut), I'm automatically dumb, racist, uneducated, drug addicted, pussy grabbing moron. I get that. We all get that. It's been your calling card going on two years now.

Just think, in only 6 years and 4 months from now, your little nightmare will be over, and hopefully you'll get someone in there you like, someone who gives you free handouts. As for me, I'll be retiring about the same time Trump leaves the White House, so I'm all set.

Well yeah, you have to be a damn idiot to call yourself conservative and a Trump supporter. Trump is not a conservative, unless all along you thought conservative meant "fvcktard". All your life you chose "conservative" and "Republican" without even realizing the core principles of either; you simply figured voting so meant you were not a fag and not a nagger-lover. Shit like this is why "Ow! My Balls!" will one day be the top-rated TV show.

Check out the GOP platform sometime. YOUR PARTY literally puts "values" and marriage" at the very top of its list of important shit on the values page. It puts "free trade" second on the list of important shit on its economy page. You've got a whole page on "Constitutional government", but you support a guy who doesn't understand seperation of powers any more than I understand Khoisan, and who wants to regulate Google because he doesn't like his search results (oh, and how about that "fake" video he made as propaganda about that? That's some Nazi/Russian/Chinese/towelhead/insert-favorite-non-American-shitheads stuff).

Again, do you know what you are or have been? Are you advocating a totally new GOP platform that the one you have been supporting for decades?* Or are you just supporting an asshole because you are one too?

It's been my "calling card" because it is PAINFULLY FVCKING OBVIOUS. You want to stick to the line of "lesser of two evils"? I'd give you that. Actually love this guy? You are not a conservative.

If realizing this makes me staunch liberal, well then there's more proof you are dumber than a bag of dicks.

*Shit man, that's why I left the GOP. I don't give a fvck about "Christian family values", I actually don't support free trade, and the GOP squawking about the Constitution is as ridiculous as the Democrats going the same.

Initial plans were from August 2016, according to Craig Bouchard himself. So no, Trump did not have dick to do with it.

welcome back EG

that old prick ain't coming back. he just couldn't handle trump getting credit for this plant and felt the need to let us all know that the plan that was introduced in spring '17 had an alternative plan to the plan and that it's really a result of obummer, not trump. he'll go back into hibernation now.

on the flip side, even though it's not a result of trump, don't think for a second that trump won't get the credit in many people's eyes. bet that pisses you never trumpers off even that much more. me . . . i fvcking love it. lol!

Not taking shit from Shit-Hole countries

Rifle post that novel for you? Don't read his, and sure as hell won't read this one. I did scan it, and I'll tell you what I'm for:

Low taxes- always a conservative thing, but a real conservative does not support debt incurred by doing so
Higher Wages - not a conservative thing, in fact this is usually a liberal talking point
Economic Growth - pretty sure both parties give this lip service
Low Unemployment - generally a liberal talking point, conservatives are more concerned with profitability
Surging Stock Market - politics aside, this can be a bad thing and probably is near the point it is
Not allowing Chinks and Mexicans to screw us on Trade - there is no way to not be screwed if other nations' workers are willing to be paid a bowel of rice a day to make the same shit we make. Why do you want to trade with them in the first place? Oh, and free trade, a conservative pillar, demands you be screwed
Not taking shit from Shit-Hole countries - does this also mean picking your favorite shitholes? real conservatives say don't pick one shithole over the other. Trump sure loves his Saudi shithole.
Calling it the way one sees it - and that's why you support the biggest liar in the history of the modern Presidency?

 

[Raoul Duke MU]

Eh, Reagan did this and we had a recession, because we were primed to double-dip. Then Reagan practically made a war with war-time-like military spending and ended a recession, thus doing the only thing guaranteed to give him influence on economic growth. So you suck it, and while you are at it you can cup the balls of Obama for this expansion that started in 2009.

Ashland Comm and Tech College has an agreement with the company to supply much of the workforce. ACTC has begun a two year degree exclusively to train folks for these jobs. If a student graduates, maintains a GPA of 3.0, passes the company aptitude test, and successfully passes a drug screening, that individual is guaranteed, as much as anything is guaranteed, a job at the new plant.

Kentucky has recently gotten its shit together on efforts like this. JCTC in Louisville has a similar program but it gets you a job at one of dozens of plants.

Stuff like this is what is important in economic development. Keeper, GK, I, and some others have been talking about this here for a decade now, fewer four year degrees and more tech education programs.

550 JOBS HUH - LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU GET TO 21,000,000.
01
Bill Clinton (1993-2001)

President Clinton added 21.5 million jobs, a 19.6 percent increase. There were 131 million people employed in December 1999, the end of his term. That's 21.5 million more than the 109.5 million employed at the beginning of his term.

    President Obama created 17.267 million jobs by the end of December 2016, a 12.8 percent increase. There were 152.111 million people employed at the end of his term. That's compared to 134.844 million
• • • 03
      Ronald Reagan (1981-1989)

      President Reagan added 15.9 million jobs during his eight-year term, a 17.6 percent increase. There were 106.9 million people working in December 1988 compared to 91 million in December 1980.
      
      He responded to the 1981 recession with Reaganomics. This was expansive fiscal policy based on supply-side economics. Reagan cut the top income tax rate from 70 percent to 28 percent. He also cut the top corporate tax rate from 48 percent to 34 percent. He increased government spending by 2.5 percent a year. His policies doubled the debt. For more, see Does Trickle-Down Economics Work?, and the Laffer Curve.
      
      
      
      
    • 04
      Lyndon B. Johnson (1963-1969)
      
      
      
      President Johnson with soldier in Vietnam. Yoichi Okamoto for LBJ library.
      
      
      President Johnson added 11.9 million jobs to the 57.36 million employed in December 1963. That's a 20.7 percent increase.
      
      LBJ spent on social programs, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and the War on Poverty. That increased the debt by 13 percent. By the time he left office, the economy was growing a robust 4.9 percent. That created a 4.7 percent inflation rate.
      
      
      
      
    • 05
      Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945)
      
      
      
      
      
      President Roosevelt added 10.3 million jobs, a 32.7 percent increase over the 31.5 million workers since 1939. (That's as far back as the jobs numbers go.) This was after he created the New Deal to end the Great Depression. FDR also built up the economy to enter World War II.

      President Nixon added 8.8 million jobs to the 69.246 million workers at the end of the Johnson administration. That's a 12.7 percent increase.
      
      He initially presided over a growing economy. Americans celebrated by importing more goods. As they paid in dollars, foreigners started redeeming them for gold. The Bretton Woods Agreement guaranteed an ounce of gold for every $35. The United States could not redeem the $45.7 billion in global dollars, since it only held $14.5 billion in gold. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates to defend the gold standard, but that created the 1970 recession.
      
      Nixon ordered a 90-day freeze on wages and prices, which worsened the recession. He soon abandoned the gold standard completely. That created double-digit inflation, as the dollar's value plummeted to $120 per ounce of gold.
      
      Nixon won re-election, but his actions created the 1973 recession, coupled with double-digit inflation. That situation is called stagflation. Nixon resigned on August 8, 1974, due to the Watergate scandal.

      Harry Truman (1945-1953)

      Truman added 8.3 million jobs, a 19.8 percent increase. He added $7 billion to the debt to fight two recessions. The end of World War II caused the 1945 recession, which reappeared in 1949.

Eisenhower was later elected the 34th President of the United States. Photo by Keystone/Getty Images
      
      
      Eisenhower added 3.6 million jobs, a 7.1 percent increase. He increased the debt by 9 percent, or $23 billion, to fight two recessions. The end of the Korean Warcaused the 1953 recession. High interest rates caused the 1957 recession.
      
      Part of Eisenhower's success with job creation was due to his creation of the Interstate Highway System. He spent $25 billion to build 41,000 miles of road.
      
      Research shows that public works construction is one of the best uses of federal funds to create jobs. One billion dollars spent on public transportation creates 19,795 construction jobs. It's a better unemployment solution than income tax cuts, which only creates 10,779 jobs for the same price.

      President Kennedy added 3.6 million jobs, a 6.7 percent increase. His inaugural speech created confidence. He endorsed deficit spending, increasing the debt by 8.6 percent. He raised the minimum wage, improved Social Security benefits, and passed an urban renewal package. That ended the 1960 recession he inherited from Eisenhower.

Give it up. This project has been negotiated and planned for the last two years. Ground is broken and site prep is underway. President Trump had NOTHING to do with this company choosing eastern Ky, but watch out the gov is a republican.
