One after another, the Republican presidential candidates have come out with strong statements that appear to show support for making things in America and revitalizing American manufacturing.
Donald Trump gained a lot of traction from the appearance of taking on China. Mitt Romney also talks about how we need to take on China. Rick Santorum has his own “Made In America” plan.
However, in spite of Romney’s words, many wonder if he is only saying this to get votes.
So much for Romney. As with so many of his campaign positions, surrogates explain behind the scenes that he is just saying what he needs to say to get votes, what he will do if he is elected might or might be completely different, there is no way to know.
The plan begins the way Santorum always begins: “Rick Santorum believes that to have a strong national economy, we must have strong families.”
Tap into America’s vast domestic energy resources…
Reclaim the role of parents as the decision makers in their children’s education and incentivize the states to promote parental choice…
Approve the Keystone Pipeline…
Phase out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s government backed role in mortgages…
Strengthen our national security and national defense so that we are not dependent upon our foes or competitors for critical manufacturing, technology, energy and other security needs.
Eliminate the corporate income tax for manufacturers – from 35% to 0% – which will spur middle income job creation in the United States and will create a job multiplier effect for workers
A Warning
There is a warning here for President Obama and all other candidates of either party running for office in 2012: the public wants to see plans to bring back American manufacturing.
