Should the government provide tax incentives to private companies to keep jobs within the country?

No, but drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on outsourcing businesses

No

Yes, and drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on outsourcing businesses

We should ensure that economic practices and policies are just, support the common good, and help the poor and marginalized

Yes, for small businesses only

Yes but only if that industry is vital to our national interest/defense. They should also increase taxes on outsourcing businesses

Corporate taxes should be eliminated

No, Presidents don't make tax policy.

Dismantle any and all regulations that hinders potential economic growth, encouraging businesses to continue operations in India.

Yes, but the president needs to impose tariffs on all of the countries who have ripped off the United States.

The government should make a fairer trade playing field to support domestic manufacturing, reduce deficits, ban unfair trade practices, and to induce a more competitive market.

The only way tax breaks should be given to individual companies is if they outperform sales within their company, therefore, making it so that companies can be granted an incentive (Reward/tax break) for the work that they have done for their business while those that receive that tax break can keep some of that money they've earned from the job they accomplished within their company.

there should be incentives to produce as much as possible locally without significantly raising cost of good beyond reasonable consumers budgets

I would prefer nationalization of these anti American companies, but fine try this it doesn't sound bad.

I think that Trump is doing a good thing giving tax cuts to the rich because then they will have more money to build more businesses so people without jobs can have one.

Abolish all income, corporate, and capital gains taxes instead and no company will ever want to move out of the US again

No, because the President should be more impartial towards companies. While it is ideal to keep jobs in the U.S., it feels somewhat hypocritical to the constitution and the free market if the President themselves gives out tax breaks to certain companies they may feel partial towards. Not only that, but it could be purely political on their part in order to gain support for the next election or for some other thing.

No, pass through of taxes, fines, layoffs to workers other than executives, HR or board, and increased material costs should be prohibited. That is a risk you take for going into business

Incentivize businesses to stay in the US, but businesses that leave should have their goods taxed and tariffed to compensate for human rights violations and inferior working conditions

No, giving tax breaks to companies will not encourage them to create more jobs but to increase their profits

I dont think its entirely fair for companies to throw people on the street especially during a recession, but i also dont want businesses to believe if they want tax breaks they can threaten peoples' jobs and livelihoods.

if the US really needs specific jobs to stay afloat and not crash then yes but if they are constantly going under and it is very important then they should get more funding

Yes, but, increase taxes on large chain companies and offer greater support to the family-owned businesses

No, government should make it easier to conduct business in the US without making it uneven for the companies (based on moving jobs blackmail).

No, but increase corporate tax rates in general

to me, they should make the price just right for what you are paying for, not too expensive and not too cheap

Yes, but first eliminate corporate tax loopholes and offshore tax havens, and renegotiate our trade agreements with other countries to ensure they improve the quality of their working-conditions.

No, and place all industry under worker ownership.

Yes but only to small companies, while large companies should be considered for having tax increases.

No. Unless you want to pop up sweatshops, then there is no economically feasible way to hold low-cost production in the US, even with considerable tax cuts. The US should invest in competence programmes and focus on high-quality manufacturing instead.

This is not the job of the President. This power belongs to Congress.

Abolish all current forms of taxation and instill the FairTax.

Make it equal for all people!

This is not and should not be part of the President’s responsibilities. However, congress should offer incentives for companies that keep jobs in the U.S.

No, the government should not interfere with the free market, but there should be a competitive tax code for all, not just an individual company.

No, but all companies allowed to sell in the Country should have to adhere to basic labor laws.

Depends on the company. Sometimes yes but it's a complicated issue with a lot of pieces and effects

Yes. It is important to keep jobs in the US so we can be self-reliant if necessary, but the tax breaks should not be too large.

I feel like that the government should give those companies a little break of like skipping 2 taxes, but then those companies should be back on their feet and if their not oh well

no, the taxes should not be so high that a company is forced to let go of workers because they can not pay their taxes. The government should lower taxes.

I lean toward support for tax breaks if they promote justice, the common good, and the dignity of workers. However, it would also caution against any policy that fosters inequality, corruption, or harm to the broader society.

No , unless the business can identify to the higher ups that unfortunately they have failed but they wanna keep chasing there dream and not funding they after they blew all their business loans/money

Acredito que pode haver uma ordem executiva do Presidente dos EUA que incentive fiscalmente empresas específicas a manter empregos nos EUA. No entanto, não uma ordem no presidente, mas sim um incentivo fiscal que fica ao critério das empresas

Yes, after the fact. The role of tax credits in job creation should be as a reward for having done so.

Yes, but only for smaller companies, but for the larger ones, we need to increase the taxes and tariffs on outsorcing.

No, and:
Lets see. $7000 per job. For how long? For how much time?

If you spend that $7000 per worker *ON THE WORKER*, instead of to the company, would you have gotten more out of it?

If companies were charged money to import products made in other countries instead of made in the USA, would that help? (This is a thorny "where was it made?" question, and is not easy to answer).

No. This is a state issue not a federal one and the federal government and President should not I therefore with the rights of a state to incentivize businesses to remain or open in it

No, not the president. That sounds like an authoritarian dictatorship. However, yes the government can offer offer incentives to keep corporations here. It is important that corporations contribute some taxes to pay for the infrastructure they use ( roads, power, etc.) if the employee that works there pays taxes, the company should too.

No, but when a company outsources manufacture of goods, tax those specific goods as they enter the US, to incent US mfg.

Eliminate corporate taxes on any business that operates and bases it's company in U.S. but increase tariffs on companies that choose to import to the United States and base and operate outside the U.S. and increase tariffs on exporting goods from the U.S.

No, and nationalize their company if they try to offshore. The people should come before some CEO's or shareholder's profit.

Add payback clauses that keep them in the US and penalize afterward if they leave - put it on a sliding scale that gives larger breaks early and smaller later

Yes, but only for businesses that do not function as a corporation (they don’t have stock shares to sell nor do they offer bonds)

No, we need companies to stay in America to support our citizens and ensure US employees are getting paid appropriately.

No, and companies who send jobs overseas should be seized by the government and liquidated to all impacted labor within the company.

Yes, especially with regard to industrys which contribute to national security such as energy, infrastructure, defence, etc..

As long as the companies are held to a standard to keep the economic impact they are promising to be able to keep the tax break.

Yes, but with limitations on the amount. Also increase import tariffs and taxes on any company moving out of the US.

Regardless, if it's an American company in a different country, it should be held to the same safety standards as it would be in the US.

No, but deregulate industries such as manufacturing and oil drilling in order to make it financially viable

The government should reduce the corporate tax rate to keep jobs in the US. The President should not have the power to give tax breaks.

Yes, but include regulations to ensure this doesn't lead to increased loopholes for corporate tax purposes.

If the company Instrumental to the state or federal economy, tax breaks should be allowed because it is in the best interest of the people in the community who stay relevant to that business. It contributes the local economy which intern contribute to the global economy

It shouldn't be based on a specific company, but if there's a sector that we deem important we should be able to incentivize the sector.

Yes and no—I disagree with moving business overseas, but I think we should all have tax breaks; not just private companies

Yes but only to companies or organizations that adhère to policies and are willing to bend the knee.

Yes; although I would prefer that these offers come from the states first with individual citizens' input.

No, taxes should be lowered across the board to incentivize businesses to come back and/or stay in the U.S. which will increase jobs.

It should be illegal to offer a job to an overseas company or subsidiary while there is an unemployed American that can be trained and hired to perform the role.

No, increase taxes for wealthy businesses and provide other incentives for them to stay in the US instead.

Yes, but there should a minimum of standards that company must follow for its employees to maintain tax breaks.

No, but the law should be amended to require that any outsourcing company lose the ownership of their factories, tooling, trademarks, and patents should they outsource more than 75% of their production, with those things going to the workers that were employed at those factories; additionally, tariffs should be raised on all finished goods that are not cultural imports (such as items unique to a specific country)

only if there’s a guarantee that the tax break is going to go to the employees and not the CEO and shareholders

Yes, but with guarantees that the companies will actually invest in US jobs instead of using the money for stock buybacks, executive bonuses, etc.

No, Open trade is good for our economy. Decrease taxes and tariffs on imports and develop faster, travel technologies to ensure the food and supplies gets here faster, and more fresh.

No, increase tariffs for imports and/or taxes for domestic to make the cost equivalent, and use the money to fund foreign aid and wage subsidies.

Yes, but only for those companies that treat their employees fairly, pay a living wage, and provide benefits

Yes, moderately, and tariffs on outsourcing should take into account wages and conditions in the other countries and be flexible according to size of the business.

Simply make it illegal to deal any business in the US without a strong and focused US presence and manufacturing sector for your business.

No, and companies that leave the U.S. should be promptly replaced by nationalized corporations run by the same staff.

Yes, but there should be a penalty if they do not hire the amount of people required for the tax breaks.

No. The President does not have the power to change tax rates, nor should they. However, outsourcing jobs should come with a massive tax increase to offset the number of jobs lost.

No, unemployment insurance should be sufficient for people to live off of, and in the first place, the government shouldn't let companies, especially banks, make overly risky investments and cause recessions which lead to unemployment.

No, it will encourage more private companies to make threats about job losses in exchange for tax breaks

All private companies should be abolished and nationalised, with every entity taxed at the same rate.

I believe companies should be taxed in a way equal to their size. if they make a large amount of money they should be both restricted and taxed at a higher rate than what they're at now.

No, but companies should have to prove that there aren‘t qualified Americans to complete the functions of the job they are offering

No, but drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on outcourced businesses that could be done in the U.S, and also enforce that any outsourced business stemming from U.S. based companies be held to the same work standards for their foreign business practices that they would have to face if they were operating in the U.S. It should be illegal for corporations to oursource their labor to avoid human-rights labor laws.

Yes, especially if they are companies that are improving the environment or other social needs e.g. a nonprofit organisation providing care and shelter for pet animals that have no parents.

Yes, so long as the companies can prove that they have reason to need these tax breaks to keep their business running.

In my stance, The government can interfere with the free market let alone them talking out of American company from moving out-of-state (country I mean) and finalizing the talk by cutting taxes for the company. Economically, I believe a corporation, having many factories across the country, has the free will to move what is right for them but, it is more efficient for that corporation and all other existing corporations to leave some factories behind operating, and to move some out-of-state.

Taxes should not be the primary reason for businesses choosing a location, the workers should have the final say.

These companies that this is referring to make literally BILLIONS. Require them to pay livable wages and healthcare

No. Keep gov't out of business. Abolish the IRS and the Federal Reserve. Companies keeping more can lower prices and pay employees more.

The government should police the conduct of a business, but it should not be allowed to assist the business in the form of tax breaks.
