First Short Quiz

.
1. Has Donald Trump proposed another economic meltdown equal to 2008???

2. Does Donald Trump really think there is $2.5 TRillion (yes, that’s TRillion with 12 zeros) stuffed in mattresses in the tax-haven subsidiaries of the U.S.-based Multi-National Companies (MNC’s)???

3. Does Donald Trump even realize that he is proposing that the CHUMP American Companies that did NOT export American jobs would be forced to reduce their payrolls and capital expenditures by $2.5 TRillion in order to repay their loans from the tax-haven subsidiaries of the U.S.-based MNC’s that DID export American jobs???

4. In other words --

Is Donald Trump “Phishing” for the “Phools” he believes American voters to be???

OR

Is Donald Trump himself a “Phish” who has been “Phooled” by the slick lobbyists of the U.S.-based MNC’s that have exported American jobs???

5. Have we already seen this movie???

*****
Hint = Please see --

(A) the seventh posting under the first section of http://www.ReadingLiberally-SaltLake.org dated 11/14/2012 and entitled “$5 Trillion Reductions in American Payroll > Meltdowns” and

(B) the third posting under that same first section of http://www.ReadingLiberally-SaltLake.org dated 2/12/2014 and entitled “Renewing 1968 Executive Order 11387 To Halt American Job Exports.”

*****

6. Would it be better to elect Carly Fiorina who at least understands how U.S.-based MNC’s have exported American jobs and what the ramifications of that are???

7. And would it be better to elect Ben Carson who appears to have the common sense not to listen to lobbyists for U.S.-based MNC’s which have exported American jobs -- but instead might be able to perform as a brilliant surgeon who carefully deals with the problems created by the loans to the CHUMP American companies that did NOT export American jobs from the tax-haven subs of the U.S.-based MNC’s that did???
