Comment: '
President-elect Donald Trump announced a deal with United Technologies, the corporation that owns Carrier, that keeps less than 1,000 of the 2,100 jobs in America that were previously scheduled to be transferred to Mexico. …
.

In exchange for allowing United Technologies to continue to offshore more than 1,000 jobs, Trump will give the company tax and regulatory favors that the corporation has sought. 
.
Just a short few months ago, Trump was pledging to force United Technologies to “pay a damn tax.” 

He was insisting on very steep tariffs for companies like Carrier that left the United States and wanted to sell their foreign-made products back in the United States. Instead of a damn tax, the company will be rewarded with a damn tax cut.
